You know, eventually, making stuff up that happens in _Enterprise_ is going to stop being funny. You can only make the same jokes for so many months… ---

Oh, I guess I assumed it was a joke because it didn’t make any sense the first time I read it. Okay, I’ve reread it six times, and I still don’t understand what you’re saying. Huh? ---

Wow, I haven’t even seen the teaser for this week’s episode, so I’m going to be extra, extra surprised! Very exciting. I predict talking rodents. Are there talking rodents? Because I’m definitely getting a talking rodent vibe. Kn(rapidly descending into insanity)ckers ---

Although the new android cast member reminds me of another show. . . And why did Hoshi spend the entire episode in the decon chamber? 😕 ---

We did punk classical in Spanish. **elf6c** I think you were watching _A & E’s Biography_ about Barbara Steisand. Shhhhh! Don’t tell **Archemar**. I think he’s mad at us.

Shoot! Forgot the smilie. ;j Goot Griefen, Canadians. This has to suck for you. Not only is your PM gay, you have to wait a whole day before discussing _Enterprise_ with anyone else who actually gives a damn. (My Canadian Cox Cable Co. went bankrupt) ---

[http://espn.go.com/page2/s/tmq/021210.html](http://espn.go.com/page2/s/tmq/021210.html) I’d Rather Be Playing Attack of the Colognes: TMQ continues to be driven crazy by the Star Trek “prequel” serial Enterprise, which is set 100 years before the old Captain Kirk episodes, yet contains plot elements inexplicable in light of what happens 100 years later. The official excuse is that the invention of time travel has altered continuity in the Star Trek universe. Yet any time-travel-altered events would have occurred in the past relative to Captain Kirk, who would have known about them. The whole thing still makes absolutely no sense. ---
