If only Quark had known that his weak spot was in the base of the neck.

I rather enjoy him myself, though I haven't seen many of the later episodes.  Perhaps it gets worse?  Anyways, "I Like YOOOUUUU!"

Aren't there a number of Starfleet physical regimens that anyone aspiring to be an officer must be capable of completing?

Re: Action sequences, I thought Kill Bill 2 had a pretty fun (if short) fight scene that was entirely upper body.

So you'll be wearing palm fronds?

After playing FO3 for awhile I started an Ink Spots radio station on Pandora.  There's a lot of great early radio era stuff on that.

I never realized that phaser fire traveled through water similar to electricity, but now that I think about it, you're right. What are the physics behind that, I wonder.

So these Jews are from Southern California?

That and they had more of a budget to work with.

I thought she was waking…

"Back then we'd spend our evenings yelling at the clouds in terrible civilian clothing, which was the style at the time."

Cookie Monster may have something to say about that….

Dang crank callers!
