      How much do they pay for accurately imitated red shirts and fully functional phasers?

      And from the clouds a mighty voice spoke:
      "Smile and be happy, for it could come worse!"

      And I smiled and was happy
      And it came worse.

        Everyone knows the red shirt crew members don't live long enough to collect the prize. :sigh: Captain Kirk, check, Spock, check, Dr. McCoy, Check, unidentified crew member in red shirt, dead....

        It was broke, so I fixed it.

          Dunno - but I'd pay quite a bit for a fully functional phaser!

                      That's your problem Pete, no ambition. What about the Salma Hayek Marching Band and Majorettes?

                                      I warned you. I did say that was bleach-worthy.

                                      At least it has answered a question: How many Klingons do you need to change a light bulb? None! They are not afraid in the dark. And now you have shown me the reason why they are afraid when it's not dark :)

                                      And I smiled and was happy

                                        I'm a bit worried he may be thinking of a space-age substitute for Rohypnol. Set phasers to stun.
