“Trip, you can’t go on the landing party with Malcolm.” “Aw, but Captain…” “Another word, young man, and you’ll be cleaning EPS conduits with a toothbrush!” ---

I can only imagine the reaming Picard would have given them. ☹ No sitting for a week when he was done with them. . . . ---

Ok this thread is turning into one of those weird K/S women things again… Opal cat: been a fan since it first aired in the 80s kn\*\*ckers watch that Canadian bashing… We’ve infiltrated your country years ago so watch out we’re everywhere. ---

Canadian TV rules, USA commercials suck. How was that? Can’t…help…myself…space…aliens…forcing…me…No! No anal probe! I’ll do it! I’ll do it! [http://www.satirewire.com/news/feb02/warship.shtml](http://www.satirewire.com/news/feb02/warship.shtml) ---

Read that one before…It’s prety damned funny. But don’t feel safe… Just think about this Lorne Greene… Green Card. Connection… Oh I think so. Who was America’s Sweetheart? What is the nationality of the actors playing the Capatin and Engineer of TOS? Top Paid Comedic Actor? The Creator and Producer of SNL… The Kid that went back to the future? Krusty’s half brother? Wait this is a Star Trek thread… ignore that. Uh I thought the episode was ok. Neatly does away with the fact the ship was seriously damaged as well as that of Malcom’s damaged leg. too neatly I think. ---

Hey, also note, it was a BUMPY\_HEAD Klingon, not a Kirk-era one! \*\* Tarragon \*\* , why would the Tellarites send people there?Could get folk mad at them - it was probably the station sending it. It remind anyone of Saberhagen’s \* Berserker \* books? hey, instead of catfish, why didn’t they ask for a replicator? ---

Of course, that guy on Battlestar Ponderosa played a Klingon on TOS and DS9. John Kolicos? Is he Canadian? Capatin, capatin, what is capatin? Scotty is ill. He stormed the beaches at Normandy and helped save Western Civilization. Comedic Actor? Haven’t a clue. George Bush? SNL, SNL, what is SNL? Michal J. Fox is ill. Great movies, crummy sitcoms. Krusty, Krusty, what…(you got the drill) So, Canadians are, like, dead or sick? Keep that damn probe _away_ from me! ---

And Enterprise thread about the Episode it is supposed to be on? They never stay on topic past post number 5, which is usually the main attraction. Now if you will excuse me, the Canadian government is appologizing about Brian Adams again… ---

And Celine Dion. I mean gosh, we’re really sorry about that one. We don’t even want her back. The Canadian government will pay you to keep her. Please just don’t send her back… ---

LOL \*\* * * * Hello again, **tarragon**. ``` Well, now that they've brought up those boar-faced darlings the Tellarites, they'd darn well better show them this season. You mean you don't tape the episodes so you can watch, um, certain scenes over and over again?? ;) I just can't wait all the way till Sunday to do that. I might even make a back-up tape next week for extra steam. :D ``` We’ve got our priorities in order! ---
