"Star Trek: Enterprise" in danger of being cancelled.

Many great quotes, including:

"I've seen guest characters on TNG get more character development in a single episode than Mayweather, Hoshi and Malcom have in 3 seasons."

"I turned Enterprise on last week while channel surfing to find it was the exact same formula that's been used every week for the last _five_ years. (0:06 mystery, 0:23 find out mystery is horrible threat, 0:42 make threat seem impossible to overcome, 0:58 solve problem with seconds to spare, 0:59 have credits roll over zany laughing cast.)"

"The magic that captured us was that TNG wasn't about space or the technology but about the people. Enterprise always seemed like it didn't make the grade there. It isn't a drama the way it needs to be for success."

"If Trek continuity were a person, it would be time for it to seek rape consoling! The Borg episode... the Romulans? What the hell? Have the writers ever even watched any of the previous Treks?"

Didn't watch it, ain't gonna miss it. But I wish it were worth watching, or missing.

So there's a mouse in the office. And no, nobody bothered telling me until he went scurrying around under my desk. He skittered into the "neon" room -- a meeting/conference room with an "Eat-at-Joe's"-esque corporate logo sign -- where he's been happily locked since. The only warning on the outside is a piece of paper taped to the door with the words "LIVE MOUSE" in big black magic marker. (My original thought was just "MOUSE," but someone brought up the fact that someone might misinterpret that as designating the room for computer input device storage.)

The new Chiefs defensive coordinator is the old Chiefs defensive coordinator (and head coach), Gunther Cunningham. Awww, yeh. Now I believe.

Must call electrocardiologist now....

Don't know what to get me for Christmas next year? Try MiniCattle. So coot! Don't forget to find out what the Bible says about miniature cattle and what to say when someone says you shouldn't eat meat.

Also, the mouse escaped, my heart-doc cut my dose and I've chomped through my daily dose of Tums. No relationship in any of those.
