Did this episodes seem oddly similar to, I don’t know. A certain TNG episode where Geordi and a Romulan are trapped on a planet and have to fight the elements and get a transmitter working in order to hail their ship? I liked it. Bakula should have stuck to Quantum Leap thought. ---

A certain TNG episode where Geordi and a Romulan are trapped on a planet… \*\* I thought it was done better on _Battlestar Galactica._ It made me sad when Starbuck was trapped on the planet forever. Just him and the Cylon, cheating at cards forever. Did Enterprise find Starbuck? That would be nice. ---

Chef can take care of the coffee situation. Starbuck’s cost too much, anyway. It is a tried and true story idea, but well done. Connor Trinneer does very well. The aliens _do_ resemble dracs, though. ^:)^ ---

…so does this underwear fixation explain you username, “Knickers”? And this puh-kahn pie…did you bring enough for everyone? ---

Knickers? I always pictured it as Knockers, having a breast fixation and all, you see. Spoil for me: Does Trip “get it on” with \*this \* alien, too? He seems to taking the Captain Kirk (slut) position in this series. I’m guessing Hoshi saves the day by translating some 18 page alien dialogue in 4.3 seconds and it turns out the alien was saying “You’re sitting on my lawn.” Well, I’ll see it in about 11 hrs. ---

1. The asterisk stands for whatever _you_ want it to, boys. 😉 That’s why it’s an asterisk and not, say, a vowel. Plus, punctuation is hot. Trust me. 2. **carni** : plenty of pie to go around, but it’s a little stale - been in my desk for so long that I don’t remember putting it in there. Might have belonged to the person who used to have this job… 3. Trip’s a total slut. But he’s cute, so who am I to judge? ---

The show is being pre-empted for the Maryland College Basketball game on my UPN outlet. I am not sure if I should be disappointed or not. . . ---

It doesn’t have to be a vowel, or even a single letter. “Knife-chuckers” always sprang to my mind. ---

Thanks, **Archernar** - that’s pretty much what I was trying to say. You could stick the collected works of Shakespeare in that asterisk, if you wanted. What a long, weird hijack. Where’s the spoilers, dammit? ---
