[Scene:&#160 onboard Pegasus, in the Engineering section.&#160 Chief Engineer Ozymandias McCool is working on a computer console, inputting equations.&#160 Out of the corner of his eye, he catches a glimpse of Engineer Emeritus Merlin approaching.

MERLIN:&#160 On what dost thou workest, Ozy?

OZY MCCOOL:&#160 Hi, Merlin. I’m optimizing the computer core…that is, when it cooperates with me.

MERLIN:&#160 You’re supposed to take the core offline before you do that, else it’ll crash and the ship’ll…

OZY MCCOOL:&#160 Sssshhhh!&#160 I’m almost done perfecting this subroutine!

MERLIN:&#160 Ozy, I strongly recommend th—

[They are both interrupted by a loud BANG!!!!!!!&#160 and an explosion of sparks from the panel, which knocks Ozy back about 10 feet.&#160 The back of his noggin smacks the bulkhead and he falls face first to the deck.

Meanwhile, the ship has gone completely dark and dropped out of warp; the emergency lights come up a couple of seconds later.]

MERLIN:&#160 —that you find a place to hide before Korrioth gets down here.

LSIK&T (over speaker, sounding very&#160 pissed):&#160 Bridge to Engineering, report!!!

MERLIN:&#160 Admiral, we’ve had a computer crash…(looks at Ozy, still unconscious)…cause unknown.&#160 I’ve started a diagnostic, but we’re going to be here for a time.

LSIK&T (growling):&#160 Very well, Wizard.&#160 Keep me informed.&#160 Bridge out.

Denizens, it’s been eighteen months since I last reimaged the Big Box&#153, so I’m taking part of the Presidents’ Day holiday to redo it.&#160 Assuming all goes well, posting shouldn’t suffer.

Much.&#160

  1. David Hartung says:

    Som did you have a warp core melt down?

  2. See what happens when you leave a job that should be done by a Vulcan to a couple of South Park-ish characters like Ozy and Merlin. I mean good grief, how much more Cannuckian could they get???? Be glad it was just a computer crash and not a core meltdown that destroys the internal hull integrity, or even worse — explosive outgassing with total decompression. You could watch your 400 bajillion credit Martok-class dreadnought go the way of the NCC-1701/A/B/C/D/E. And maybe if you didn’t buy your dreadnoughts from a Ferengi, you could probably get a better price WITH a warranty.

    Methinks it’s time to get some new crew members there Spats, cause these “red uniforms” have seen one too many episodes.

This blog is best viewed with your eyes. 
It helps, though, if you have Microsoft Internet Explorer  set about 1024x768 1280x1024 with your Favorites window activated on the left deactivated.  (At least until I can get a better handle on how WordPress works.)

(KORRIOTH:  Oh, great.  More wormholes.)

Mozilla Firefox doesn't do too badly, either; in fact, it's His Rudeness' browser of choice.
You can  use Nutscrape,  if you so desire - but why in blazes would you want to use a browser from a company that had to hide behind Janet El Reño's skirt to be successful?

And don't even  get me started on Opera or Chrome.  I'm not about  to trust any browser that won't let me change its color scheme.
