or for those more lifted and seperated days:
DD’Cups of T’pol
Wow, JP got to the boob joke before me, I must be losing my touch…
BTW, Scotty is Scottish. I reckon he won’t be very happy about the mix-up let alone open up an Irish pub!

How ’bout a ride where you’re shunted back in time and have to prevent Rick Berman from ruining the franchise. You bounce around in a motion simulator as your ship naviagates the smoggy contours of Beverly Hills. When you find his obscenely large estate, built from the shattered dreams and perpetually lowered expectations of unsuspecting SF fans, your sensors detect the energy signatures of good allegories corrupted beyond recognition. Berman appears on the viewscrren and laughs maniacally: “Fools! You cannot destroy me! I gave you Seven of Nine! I rule the geek empire! Kneel before me!”
You send out a subspace signal and a wormhole forms in the sky above. Through the terminus emerge Lexx, Maya from Farscape, and an armada of Babylon 5 Shadow vessels. White hot plasma beams boil the air as they lance downward and atomize the abode, as well as all the bad scripts, treatments and ideas for new shows held within. As the freed spirits of Vulcans, Klingons and Borg thank you for delivering them, you turn to your navigator and say “plot a course for Skywalker Ranch.”
I think Jeff wins!
bah! I didnt know we can write a whole paragraph, I thought we’re just coming up with cleverly (read: dorkily) named rides…
Magnificent Jeff – the whole thing made me giddy….
