What did you do, get up for a very early breakfast? Or you haven’t gone to bed yet? Or Crewman Daniels has been futzing with your timeline and you really don’t know which end is up? 😃 I think he’s been futzing with mine…no, wait, that’s spring break anticipation. ---

CGI Gorn might look like CGI Godzilla from that crappy Devlin film that never existed. ---

Morning scares me. I don’t do them well at all. * * * “It’s Gojira, you moron!” (dialogue that does not exist from film that does not exist either) ---

Then you can’t hum along with us while we do the theme song? “DA NA NA NAAA, DA NA NA NA NA NAAAAAAA…” What? You’ve never subjected yourself to the exquisite pleasures of the giant rubber suited guy and his terribly cute little son who could only blow smoke rings? Or the really gross stuff in “Godzilla vs. the Smog Monster”? Or Rodan, or Gamera, or Monster X? ---

Off topic: By the way, your not responding to my emails hurt. It wounds me to the very core of my being. I think I’ll go kill myself by watching a marathon of “Spock’s Brain” now. Goodbye cruel world. ---

**viva** , why are you putting a skirt and boots on **Aes**? Did he demote you to fitting-room attendant? ---

I always wondered why on TNG the dudes in the first season would sometimes be wearing those skirts. Then they suddenly stopped. Must have been Rigellian fashion or something. ---

**Tars** : The skirts were their dress uniforms, I think… As I recall (maybe wrongly), they started out wearing them pantsless, and then in later seasons, they wore slacks underneath. Which totally ruins the effect. I do remember Worf complaining rather vociferously about having to wear a skirt, at one point. And, **Aes** , I understand why you have to wear the skirt and boots, but was the bustier absolutely necessary? I mean, it looks good, and everything, it’s just kind of… unprofessional. And I think you have it on backwards. ---
