Yeah, there was “Vanishing Point,” but the story blew chunks. However, if it’s Hoshi you crave, there’s plenty of her in it. She also had to get them out of a pickle by crawling through the ship and she lost her top at some point, but I don’t remember the title of that one. I’m sure **Tars** would know. ---

You’re talking to the guy who liked _Menage a Troi_ just 'cause they showed naked Deanna. Not even naked Lwaxana made it bad. **Tars** mailed me naked Hoshi months ago. 😃 ---

**Aesiron** isn’t human… Remember that discussion we were having a few months back about how Denobulans’ reproductive organs might not be where we would expect? Well, whatever species **Aes** is, maybe ther naughty bits are in the spine. Sounds damned awkward to me… Aesian Guy: “Honey, um, could you just separate your vertebrae a little?” Aesian Lady: “I’ve already dislocated my pelvis, whaddya want me to do?!” Aesian Guy: “Well, I’m trying not to sever your spinal cord, darn it!” What was that Topless Hoshi episode, anyway? I’m trying to figure it out, and all I can remember is that everyone was locked in their quarters, and they used a Creman Daniels Deus Ex Machina to save the ship. Was it the Season 2 premier, maybe? I’m pretty sure there were Suliban… Dead Stop: Not a personal favorite. Pretty boring and silly. ---

No, it’s like a Miami Sound Machine. So, having watched this again, I picked up on something i missed last time: When Archer and T’Pol are on the station thingy, and it’s doing diagnostic stuff on _Enterprise_, Archer looks at a bio-scan monitor and says: “Looks like the ship wasn’t the only thing they probed. I think this is Malcolm!” _They did WHAT?!_ :eek: ---

Well, maybe the repair station wasn’t the only thing probing Malcolm. ---

The repair station had a female voice…yet it probes. Interesting. Oh, frip and frap…next week’s rerun is “Marauders,” AKA “Invasion of the Wussy Wimpy Klingons.” :rolleyes: ---

I prefer the Durases and Alexanders of the Klingon Empire to the Martoks and Worfs. ---

I’m glad to hear that, **Aes** , because the mechanical sex addiction was going to mean a WHOLE lot more psychotherapy, and, frankly, I don’t think the money’s worth it, for any shrink to probe those particular cobwebbed mental recesses. So, Marauders next week, then… Is there a spoon around here, I can gag myself with? Never mind, I’ll just watch the chickenshit Klingons on Wednesday, that’ll do the trick. ---

Next week on _Pigs in Space_, Klingons invade the _SwineTrek_, but are scared away by seeing First Mate Piggy in her nighttime makeup mudpack. **First Mate Piggy** : watch it, bucko! It’s a _Pigs in Space_ Event, _City on the Edge of Miss Piggy_! **First Mate Piggy** : That’s it! HIIII-YAH! ---
