Heh, makes me think of that [“Zombie Dogs”](http://www.news.com.au/story/0,10117,15739502-13762,00.html) story that has been going recently. ---

Wow, what a find! Thanks! I love Jeffrey Combs. Saw him at a science fiction convention once. He’s a sharp, funny guy. Cute, too, in a geeky kind of way. ---

I didn’t realize it until after I posted the OP, but that cite is chock full of old-time horror/sci-fi/suspense audio book mp3s. Surf around from [http://www.zombieastronaut.com](http://www.zombieastronaut.com) , or change the 12 in the URL in the OP to 11, 10, etc and you’ll find lots more cool stuff. ---

> [@Mr. Blue Sky](#): > > One of the better Trek villains. Second to Andrew Robinson’s Garek. You’re gonna have to be more specific. It seems like he played like 8 different characters spread out through most of the modern ST shows (that’s a guestimate). He was great as all of them. Or each of them. Whatever. It’s late 🙂 ---
