Transporter Accident!
Der iz an ebil twin inna parralol uneeverse!
Poor little alien kitteh….does Kirk then go through the same malfunkshun, and end up in the same way? Won’t be eksiting az when he wuz his gud self and hiz bad self…akshually, a three hedded Kirk will be kinds of gross…..
Let’z hope no cling-onz end upp dat wai! Can u magine eviler cling-onz!
I thinks the clingonz would think three heads would make them cooler, fiercer looking….like the clingon General Chang, and hiz riveted-on eye-patch.
Dems rivets? I fot they was ten penny galvanized.
OMG! Et da RenFaire, dis wun stall had a buncha lether arts, kinda scruncht up lether wif fayces put in, an wun ting she had wuz an ayepatch – wiff an eye in it! Lookt REEELLLEEE MadEye Moonie, BERREE kewl… I trai to find owt da cumpnee naym, it wuz soo kewl!!!
Ai wuz tinkin mebbe liek teh tranzporder acksident frum Spaceballs, in witch caise kitteh wud hav eezee acksess to butt lickin.
Cookies Hoomin, what meks you so sure he’d come out wif three heds?
Coz in the epeesode where the transporter malfunkshunned, the little alien dog wuz beemed up, and ended up az two little alien dogs – one nice, one mean. Kirk beamed up moments after under the same set of cirkumstances, and he came up as 2 separate Kirks – one nice, the other nasty. So if it be similar transporter accident that caused space-kitteh to re-assemble wid three heads, then if Kirk beamed up moments later, he could have three heads like the kitteh. And God knoes what else culd be triplicated….
he did always end up wif the girl.
OMG LOL!!
next episode;
Kirk engaged 2 nubile tripletz from planet Delta-Aphrodite….
Kirk always did make the best of any situwayshun…..
Taht’s owr Kapn Jaymes Tee “ai nebber mett agurl aliyenn ai wuddn’t kiss (or sumfing) Kirk!!
*sigh* He be my hero…….
Um, er, so Kayjoy, hep me owt here if hez go two nubile tripletz do dat at up to 6girls or two gurls and if just two is dat cause the udder four were nawt nubile (Kirk axually nawt choosey dat way) and is delta aphrodite as clebber as I tink or is just muh mynd inna gutter agin?
an why am I flashing on the ole riddle:
On my way to St Ives I met a man wiff seven wives
and every wife had seven sacks, and every sack had seven cats,
and every cat had seven kits. Kits, cats, sacks, wives,
How many were going to St Ives?
Mai adbice: Lay off da katnips, SnE.
Ise down to 1/2 a lid a day.
Afore I left the employ ob Big Blew I was supportin seberal accounting applications and one day muh boss say dat the accountant I had been werk wid on one ob dem apps wus leaving and she wanted me to take over. I sed “Ise nawt an accountant, Ise a progrmmer, I caint even count to eleben wifout unzippin.”
She did nawt see the humor in dat.
LOL! Dat funnee!
Yeah, it’s kinda liek dat, izzinit?
Wiff Big Blew, I meen. Dey iz reeeelleee liek dat, eben da guyz, most uv em…
Omg- u r so funny!

um ..Sol, iz not berry gud with teh mathematics. I compared my attempt @ college intermediate algae-bra last yr. with me trying 2 lern 2 read Chinese- all memorization but no real comprehenshun. However, i did learn enuff 2 tutor my 15 yr old math-hating son in algaebra & he’s doing beddar for now.
So, while i originally envishuned Kirk engaged to (with?) 3 nubile identical sisters, i will bow 2 ur greater skills in math & science n say Kirk will have as many alien ladies az iz mathematically possumble.
oh & yes and yes to teh last kwestion.
Yowza, I hadda turrible tyme wif Chinese arifmatic, Chinese Algebra goota be miserabob. I fink I hadda lolspeek mistook when you sed 2 nubile triplets I wondered why nawt all free ob dem. I mistooked the 2 fer two instead of to and den I got cornfused because two triplets myte be six lyke a pair ob twins is four. Hole on while I get some ice for muh medicashuns. I cee dat yer annuder one ob dem real clebber wuns here dat I luvs so mush.
Akshually, i’m moar kind-hearted than clebber. U c, i didn’t succeed at advanced algebra but i tried really hard-enuff to help my son improve his H.S. scores anyway. And Chinese algebra? i thinks u iz pulling my leg- if i was going 2 study an esoteric, exotic Eastern art , it wood haz 2 B in teh proximity of teh kama sutra.
At my age proximity is 2 close to the kama sutra, Ise nawt limber enuff. Esther an I tried years ago and I recall her sayin dat if we ever got this act togedder we should join the circus.

Odysseus did make a trip to the under after his year with Circe but never encounted Cerberus nor crossed the river Styxx (at least according to Edith Hamilton and Bullfinch)
Aeneas met wif de scaree Cerberus on hims trip to teh Unnerwurld after he gawt teh golen bowgh from teh Cumean Sibyl.
As wuz told in teh Aeneid. (Sry nawt to menshun in previous post!)
ChrissehKitteh is rite. Damn, a scholar, noaw I gotta stawp makin up stuff about Greek miffs.
Nawt such a scholar, SolnEsther! Jus a Latin teechur who lubs teechin teh Aeneid (and I jus tawt it to one ov mai classes who r gonna LUB dis picha!!!!)
An Ai woan tell a sowl when yew maek sumtin up, unless its owtrageous!
No, please keep me honest, I hast fergotten a lot of the classic literature and muh memry for the Greek mythology is starting to slip too. When I was ver you muh dad read to us from the Illiad (nawt much of a kids book) but when the udder kids played cowboys an innians I wanted to play greeks an trojans.
Ai wanted to play Greek goddesses an Ai hadda fit iffn Ai coun’t be Afena becawse she wuz teh smaht wun. It’s still a bonus qwestion on teh test or kwiz….who iz mai favrite goddess?
Flashing grey eyes sprung full grown from Zues head with helm and shield. I wus always a fan of Athena. So whats the name of her companion the spirit of fair play I think?
I ment Wiff flashing grey … Der was more den eyes dat sprang.
Hers companion is Nike, teh goddess of victory. I always lubbed taht Athena sprang outta her father’s head fully-formed.
I knew the Nike but I wasn’t sure (obvious) of the spirit of victory.
Ares also hadda lill companion who had the apples of discord and could cause fights among friends but I do nawt recall her name ne more. Nemesis maybe?
I got a memory dats just lyk muh wife: really good, world class, nearly perfect, just kinda short.
Wun uv da aspex uv Athena is “Goddess uv Chareeyuts”! Wenebber we need a parkin spayc, we pray to her, an boy, she delibers!! Eben in LA, et da beech R da mawl R NE whar!
Blesseengs to Athena!!
I sur do lub me sum Athena!!! She rawks!!!
And SnE, Ares’ revolting lil companion is Eris, teh goddess of teh discord. Ask mai 6th graders abawt her — wif n e luck, dey’ll gib u a neerful!
But Ares had teh uvver frens too: Deth, Famin, Fear (and Loathing, eben when dey weren’t n e whar NEER Las Vegas!), an a hole bunch ov uvver charmin folks.
oh my, Eris ob corse. I forgotted. Yo tesches Greek Miffs to 6th graders? Thas great! Are yo familiar wiff “D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek Myths” (I hadda stop spelling it Miffs kawse it was only a matter ob time afore I embareassed muhseff and wroted MILFS). It is a vairy handsome large format picture book that has woodcut illustrations that I think are bootifull. It is designed fer childers and it tones down some of the randier aspects of the Greek Gods. They are pretty vague about wut queen Pasiphae was actually up to hiding in the wooden cow.. e.
Pasiphae was innocently at teh beach, trying on her”Tribute 2 Milk-cows” parade float designed by Daedelus, when suddenly…
uz guz bedda be gud- u habbent menshund Hera yet… n u noe hoae jelamus sheez getz!

I lubs D’Aulaires, and a lot ov mai stoodent hab it. I teech dem miffs in teh context ov teh Latin, so taht tehy will (Ai hope!) unnerstand teh culchur bedder.
I dew haf to tone down sum parts — teh action between Leda an teh swan I referred to as bein “swannage” –teh 6th graders awl laffed an unnerstood it wuz PG-13, and tehy can’t kno taht stuffs!
Ai remedy taht nao….O Hera, Ai bows down to yew, O Qween ov teh Hebbens…
I am having a real happy rereadin this thread. It was very rare that found NE one to talk miffology wiff while at big brew. Or any literature (John Grisham was big and Patterson ob korse). Here Ise got witty cultured aminal loving peeps who knows opera, classical moosic, classic literature, classic comix, art, science dis group is positively Jeffersonian. Kthx.
Ai am habbin teh happee, too. Ai am teh noobie, butt Ai am soooo lubbin habbin teh cheezfrens. Evrybuddy tinks Ai iz stranj becos Ai teech Latin an uzed to teech maf an mai hed iz stuffed wif trivia. Yay ICHC!

I just drank lots of booze and I think my eyes might have rebelled.
