Fantastic word game

When Captain Kirk saved the whales, you could tell from the faroff, distant look in his eyes that his main thought was of another planet, another time, some hot alien chicks, and the little-known whaling term "Kirk-Chick humpback."
 
Warp speed is great for travelling in a straight line, but the turns can be a little tricky.

A funny story about Bill Shatner: During the original series, he would always show up for work on the first day of filming in good physical shape. Unfortunately, as the days and weeks wore on, he would tend to put on weight. Complicating matters was the union rule which required all costumes to be dry-cleaned every night. This means that Shatner's shirts/tunics would get a little smaller and smaller as his midsection got a little larger and larger. The natural result was an actor who was continually pulling down his shirt so that it would better cover his waistline. You can see quite a bit of tugging during the original series, and you can also tell if the episode was early-season or late-season by the number of tugs as well as the overall tightness of Mr. Shatner's clothes.

O.K. ladies: does the fact that I know this make me more sexy or less sexy? :D
 
Tricky turns are nothing for band campers who have already taken that trip through time.

O.K. ladies: does the fact that I know this make me more sexy or less sexy?

Well, gee, Wally, I dunno.
 
AHH Jeeze:

That trip through time had been be worth the trouble.



Tricky trekkie trivia will trip you up every time.


(About those tunics--they were made of velour and used to shrink when cleaned and while I have absolute faith that Shatner's incipient beer belly caused some of the costuming problems, the material mostly at fault. It only makes you Sexy if you are a scantily clad Leonard Nimoy--who even though he is 78, still rolls my socks down.)
 
Comedic appeal was not apparent in the turgid V: Final Frontier, although Spock singing campfire songs was mildly amusing.

(On the other hand that double handed mind meld that Spock gave Kim Cattrel, causing her to scream, reminds one why one should never rile a Vulcan)
 
Mildly amusing is how I would describe Jay Leno, Conan O'Brien, and David Letterman because none of them can hold a candle to my personal, all-time favorite king of late night, Johnny Carson.
 
Johnny Carson was so good at what he did that he made us think it was so easy anybody could do it.

(Travel Tip: When visiting the planet Vulcan bring plenty of sunscreen.)
 
Anybody could do it, but not as well as Johnny Carson, although Steve Allen was he who made air quotes popular, and they are still in use by many to this day.
 
In use by many to this day is the apocryphal, "Beam me up, Scotty," which no one ever said on Star Trek no how.
 
No how, no what, no where, no when, and no who contained in its 4 lines of textspeak verbage, that story the journalism intern turned in had to be labeled "Skeeter's Opinion," and he barely even covered the question of why.

Bcuz.
 
The question of why wasn't Olivia Newton-John part of the Star Trek cast is one of those questions to which we may never know the answer.
 
One of those questions to which we may never know the answer, well another one since WMC just mentioned one, is why doesn't Olivia Newton-John return my pager calls within 5 minutes.

She still carries the beeper I gave her in 1983 with my first lawnmowing money. She is just so galldang special.
 
Why doesn't Olivia Newton-John return my pager calls within 5 minutes is a very good question but not as good as the answer which is that Olivia and I are sharing cruellers at Krispy Kreme.



Hey, quad, by the way, I'm supposed to be away on business next week and the week after as well (although I am awaiting final instructions from the big bosses) so you can start tentative preparing, scheduling, delegating, focusing, and streamlining now if you wish. ;D
 
Olivia and I are sharing cruellers at Krispy Kreme in a dream of mine too!

I am looking forward to fostering a dialogue and creating an atmosphere based on synergy and shared syncopation, so that the TFWG will not become a dead stick project.
 
Mine too and yours as well but you best be careful with all those big words or Linguistics Czar Raptus will think you are mocking him.
 
Linguistics Czar Raptus will think you are mocking him when you ask the musical question: Is you is or is you ain't?
 
Is you is or is you ain't is a lyric from a simpler time i.e. before people thought it was acceptable to air their dirty laundry or baby mama dramas on Springer or Maury.

Linguistics Czar Raptus always thinks people are mocking him. That's why he takes the medication.
