I’m not either. And CP won’t let me see older subscribed threads.

Must be a glitch.

We also gave an interview to a guy who writes for a Ventura paper; met a nice young fella from the ENT production offices whose voice is on the message machine (I told him I recognized it), and talked with the guy who edits the Star Trek Communicator magazine.

Oh, and here are some very good butt-signing shots taken by one of the folks I was hangin’ with:

Sorry to beat this into the ground, but it was pretty freakin’ funny and I witnessed the whole thing.

Well, that sucks.

God damn it. You keep on sneaking posts in.

It was **NCB** ’s post that sucked, not **viva** ’s although **viva** ’s sucked too because she snuck it in there.

I’d want to … sign Linda Park’s ass.

Not only the above things, but I can’t unsubscribe a thread either. Tells me I’m not authorised.

Did you make a “Lucas”? If so, you can have your legion obsessive fans try and explain to away, like Luke french kissing his sister, and Vader suddenly becoming Luke’s father. Oh, and those horrid Ewoks rather then Wookies. Oh, and redoing the movies to insert Mini-jaba and Greedo shooting first. Well, you get the idea.

😉

I want a year of the afterlife that looks like a Coor Light commercial!

Thanks, **vivalostwages**! It was very nice of you to yell my name. Now I’m in the same company as **Aesiron** and Dominic Keating’s Ass[sup]TM[/sup]!

It’s never okay. Just rearrange the sentence so that it doesn’t end in to. 😛 I mean, just rearrange the sentence so that ending it in to is what it doesn’t do. {I’m a poet and didn’t know it!} Uh, I mean, just rearrange it so that 1) it doesn’t end in to, and 2) it doesn’t end with one. Uh, I mean, a to. - No I don’t have a cold - why do you ask? Uh, uh … so, uh, what is it that you do do? {looks askance}

_YOU SAW GARY LOCKWOOD!? He hasn’t been at a convention in light-years!_

Haven’t seen \*\*Tars \*\* in a few days.

While I miss him, I don’t mind the lack of competition. I have all her ass to myself. 😃

GET OFF MY ASS!!!

It was a black Sharpie on white skin. Right butt cheek. I saw it. Thought you’d appreciate details even if it was a guy.

Linda doesn’t seem to be on the roster for any upcoming cons, unless they’re smaller or fan-run. Hmmmmmmm…could she be having stalker problems? It’s one of you guys, isn’t it?

Aes, I am making another cheapo tape for you, but I am putting some less important stuff at the beginning. It should be free and clear by the time you get to the new ER and Joan eps.  
I’ll try to find the regular 6 hr. tapes.

What’s the matter? Are you concerned that your new obsession will cause you to become the butt of jokes in this thread? Don’t let the thought bum you out. We’re all behind you on this one.

A preposition is something a sentence should never end with.  
**Viva** , don’t be bummed. Just turn the other cheek. Go to a milk farm and smell the dairy air. Or just sit on it for a while. Bottom line: crack a smile.

How far in advance are conventions planned? I really would like to go to one one of these dyas if I have the chance and someone more interesting than Ethan Phillips is the main attraction.

And no problem on the tape. I wasn’t annoyed by the lack of sound too much… after all, you get what you pay for. 🙂

Modern kids! Why, in my day, we didn’t have no high faluting tapes. With sound yet! No, we had to make due with sock puppets and we were glad to be able to do it. Why, we even had to use the neighbor’s socks. And it were a special occasion when they weren’t still wearin’ 'em.

Old songs come to mind:

“She’s got freckles on her BUT she is nice…”

“I wanna kiss her BUT she won’t let me…”

Damn you all. Bunch of bums.

Aes, check out the links to various cons here, but scroll way down to the bottom of the page so you can see them. Ignore the main page because it’s an April Fool’s joke for the time being.

[http://www.triphammered.com/support.shtml](http://www.triphammered.com/support.shtml)

Cons run all over the place, so I don’t know about your particular area. Creation holds its Official Trek-only cons in Las Vegas in the middle of summer.

Also check Linda’s website and see if she has appearances scheduled: [www.lindapark.com](http://www.lindapark.com)  
I smell RUMP roast!!

That was a link to saving the show, not to conventions, **viva** , and I couldn’t make it past the splash page on Linda Park’s site. Mmm.

I seriously think I have feelings for her. Not in a weird stalkerish way, just a really pathetic geeky way. I’m not sure which is worse. 😛

Aes, I just checked that page a minute ago. You need to scroll ALL the way down to find the convention links. Really, they are there. Several ENT folks are scheduled for cons this year and next, but I still don’t know about her.
