Snuck a post in on me there. When can I expect them? No rush, obviously.

And I’ve been meaning to ask if you watch _Scrubs_. I’ve become a fan of Zach Braff recently due to the awesomeness of _Garden State_ and was hoping you watched Scrubs so I could see if he’s as good on it as he was in his movie.

If not, it’s no big deal.

And by the way, \*Joey \*\*\*really \*\*sucks.

Oh, and check your email. I’ve been living by myself for three months now and you’re still sending to my old address. 🙂

Curse your Washington, DC area and its eminently reasonably _Enterprise_ rerun times! I have to wait until Sunday night at 8 PM before I can tape “Storm Front, Part I”.

And that’s 8 PM **Pacific Time** , which is, like, next year in other time zones.

Just like with Imperial Stormtroopers. (Or _The A-Team_. I always have trouble telling those two apart.)

They were Nazi dogs. They had it comin’.

guy needs some firearms education. Next we’ll see revolvers with safeties.

Did you fellas know you can get email accounts for personal correspondence?

^ :dubious: ^

It doesn’t really suck. It just sort of sucks. It’s a nice episode. It’s predictable. It has race relations that Sisko would say are unrealistic. Perhaps things would change during a Nazi occupation, but the Vichy French rounded up the Jews.

How will stopping Vosk make things right?  
Maybe Daniels was referring to making the Temporal War right and “our” timeline is screwed no matter what?  
Now a reset button next week would _really_

Keep this in mind: Coto said the TCW would be resolved by the midpoint (more or less) of the season.

I didn’t see much of Enterprise last season so I tried to get back into it. They lost me at the Nazi’s … ho-hum, never seen that before.  
It always bothered me to have to shoot the dogs in Wolfenstein, I just had to remind myself that they were Nazi dogs and they were going to give me Nazi rabies. So I had to go all Atticus Finch on them.  
At least the Nazi dogs blowed up good.  
Okay, I’m just rambling, I guess I was just annoyed that someone else beat me to the “Strom Front” joke.

I didn’t mind Wolfenstein so much as the dogs in Quake.

Come to think of it, I reckon the title is a comment on Nazis in the USA.

BTW friends, _Forbidden Planet_ is on TCM this morning; I still think they should have remade it for the _Enterprise_ pilot.

My heart is breaking for you. Really. Into a million microscopic pieces.

I don’t know how you manage.

Don’t forget that they’re Nazi dogs, so they’d be the Dogs of War.

Come to think of it, I probably shouldn’t have let that slip. Don’t want to cause havoc or anything.

Yond dogs have a fat and contented look… they eat too much. Such dogs are harmless.

Well, **Aes** , if you’d sent me your new address earlier, I would have sent tapes there before. 😉  
Tapes will arrive. I am filling them. With filling.

Yes, we are quite aware of email accounts. I have several. Aes keeps bouncing from one to another 'cause he’s in some sort of temporal spasm.  
I thought the woman playing Alicia was quite good.

I forgot to until the last tape was sent and **Master Control** tossed it to me when he got off work. Which it’s not a big deal since I watch them at their house anyway, but I think they’d prefer me to use my own mailbox. ;j

I’ll probably have another change of address in another month or two. I’m looking to find a smaller, cheaper place… no need to spend $500 a month on a two bedroom apartment when all I have to put in it is a futon, a computer and a portable stereo.

Yay Porthos!!! And Porthos and the Doc (omg, I’ve gone -completely- blank on his name right now!!), my two favorites (in spite of not being able to remember his name … LOL).

I’ve got to say, though, this TCW plot is just too much for me. I am enjoying seeing Silik again, so that’s good. Nazis in the White House, which was partially burnt up, was mind-boggling. I do like Alicia, though. Heh, wonder what they will do when they send her back to Earth, or maybe she’ll just stay with Enterprise?!

Is it just me or does Silik appear to be made entirely out of Rice Krispy treats?
