Back in the DS9 days, in “Trials and Tribble-ations,” Worf was asked about the Smoothie Klingons in the bar and he became uncomfortable, admitted that they were real Klingons but just didn’t want to talk about it. We’ve never gotten the rest of this story and I WANT IT!

Time to pray for a giant bug to come and slice and dice him for a while before sucking out his brains. That’s what I kept wishing for while waiting for **Troopers** to be over.

I just gave it to you. Worf wouldn’t admit they were fashion hounds.  
Damn.

Aha! So **that’s** how the Xindi are planning to destroy the Earth – by using **Solarmanite!**

Didn’t see the show… they had some special about those St. Judes kids again. If they keep pre-empting my show, cancer won’t be their primary concern for much longer…

Ah, my final toss-it-back-up-for-the-reruns blast. I’m skipping “Bounty,” nnnkay?

**Aes** , email me if you’re going to need any tapes. Here’s the list of upcoming eps, just from memory: The Xindi (Sep. 10 premiere), Anomaly, Extinction, Raijin, Exile.

And how is our little CogenitorBoy doing these days?

Wish I could have been around here more, but I have been house-and-dog-sitting for a friend who has no computer! No computer!! It’s so primitive.

I’m most likely going to need tapes of them all. Enterprise now comes on at 11:30pm on Sunday nights for me and I have to be to work on Mondays at 8:00am. Thanks.

**cplant** is a weenie.

Out of interest why do these Enterprise threads always last 5+ pages? Everyone I see always has more replies than anything else in this folder plus each individual episode isnotpicked over and taken apart. Most unusual.
