Then we can make Midori Slimeballs and Alien Secretion–if I can ever remember those recipes as well. 😉

Oh god I never though of that… You bring the pointy ears, **viva** get the ale, **Tars** bring the women ( **Kn\*ckers** ;)) and I’ll go shoot myself.

This has to be the best thread ever.

I haven’t laughed this much at something I’ve read since finishing “The Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.” 😃

Did someone mention wine women and song? I’m all for that. Can we have pecan pie, too?

And is Porthos invited? God, I hope not.

Also, **Wearia** , you shouldn’t shoot yourself. Very messy. Much neater to hang yourself… Not that I think you should or anything! Oh that sounded so mean and evil. I’m a bad, bad person.

In other news, I want tequila and chocolate, and I want them NOW.

Wearis can take Porthos for a walk while we party.

My favorite Spock line ever:

In _The Cage_, the first (unaired 'til much later) pilot for _TOS_, when the landing party beams back up to the ship after laser-ing the big rock, and they materialize in the transporter room, but Number One and the Yoeman (what a babe she was!) are missing…

Spock looks around and _yells_:

_ **"THE WOMEN!"** _

Just thought I’d throw that in here, you know… it’s Trek…

but if **Wearia** ’s all shot up and hanged and stuff, it’s going to be really hard to walk!

Maybe the Panda could help?

**Bleria**? Really people lets be adult about this. **carni** stop making faces!  
**viva** I had you assigned to bring ale and since you were already coming with the ale why would **Tars** need to bring you along, hmmmmmm? Gotcha there!  
Oh and I figured it out, I’ll hang myself with a rope that will be strung up a pulley then brought down to **Porthos** ’s collar. So, as **Porthos** walks he will slowly hang me! While I am my hardest critic, I have to say this idea is pure unsaturated genius. I get hung, **Porthos** gets walked and everyone _parties down_! Woo!  
And since I’m on a role here, how about I add a practice question for the Tuesday quiz?  
OK here goes:

1. This day comes before Wednsday but after Monday.

You can be Trip.

Trip with breasts, sure… but… that would actually make a good episode.

Been peeking again? 😉 Well, he had nipples once–albeit on his arm–so it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch.

Boy, you are so right about Trip. Great character, but he’d be my last choice for a first officer!  
Now go look up “albeit” before you strain yourself. 😉

He had nipples _once_?! Did some alien of the week abscond with his or somethin’? I don’t think I’d want to travel in space if I when someone teases me by sayin’ they have my nose, they might really have it. :eek:

Yeah, he was attacked by those Phage-plagued guys from Voyager, and then mangled during a transporter test. He just doesn’t remember.
