I’m still sticking to the idea that strawberry juice just isn’t economical to make or sell. After all, juice manufacturers seem to be able to make strawberry-kiwi drinks or strawberry-orange-banana drinks just fine. There is a Strawberry C Monster drink made by Odwalla, too; however, it is not 100% strawberry juice.

We know _how_ to get the juice on a large scale, then. We just don’t have a way to make it sell on its own.

Damn you, **Fish**! Damn you to alt.star-trek.creative!

I wanted to be the one to give the first Marrissa reference…

What the hell? I’m as big a Trekkie as they come and the Marissa Picard reference is flying right over my head. I don’t recognize it at all. Some scene from \*Family \*?

Um. And I agree with \*\*Fish \*\* that it’s uneconomical, just to try to stay on topic…

Ooooooh! I get to introduce yet another unsuspecting soul to the horror of Stephen Ratliff!

[The Stephen Ratliff MSTing Archive: The Marrissa Files](http://pw1.netcom.com/~mblackwl/)

Basically, the _cough_ author has taken a minor once-off character (Marrissa Flores, the little girl stuck in the turbolift with Picard in _Disaster_) and turned her into the absurdist centerpiece of an entire alternate Trekiverse, where 12-year-olds are made ensign and given command of a “Kids’ Crew” capable of phasering the words “I was beaten by a bunch of kids” into Gul Dukat’s starship. And that’s only the beginning…

I add more years onto my sentence in Hell every time I share that link.

Whew. It has something to do with the scary Trek Online Underground that I avoid at all costs and wasn’t some line in one of the shows. I am redeemed.
