  1. Expanding past current system. We'll almost have to. If I understand corrently Technology is getting far more advanced than what it is. So who knows maybe a 100,000 years we may have that very same tech. Its a wonder though, you think Startrek/ star wars/ etc had anything to do with that?


  2. I haven't had a summer job in years. When I did I worked as a lifeguard at a boy scout camp. On top of going to school and working as a Emergency Med Tech- Defibulation.

    Now I'm a Navy Corpsman/ Field Med Tech. Yeah cool Marine toys. Sometimes the perks outweigh the risks :blink: : ( I know someone who doesn't want to hear that!) :bow:


  3. Intregining. I would have to agree with everyone especially Trekkiemage. This could be something usefull, if built in stages. but if something were to beak, equipment and people would be burned up on reentry or be bounced off by gravity. I'll stay on the ground than you and admire the stars from Terra Firma.

    Not unless I get a chance to go in a shuttle. :lol:


  4. I wish I could say the same. I own a house out in the Booeys of Western Tidewater (VA.)

    We got slammed hard by both Floyd(99) and Isabell (03).

    Lots of water with Floyd. I got to go underway for that one :lol:

    Isabell, however, I got my family and moved inland. Good thing too since we did lose a tree.

     

    Thanks for the updates, I know they will be helpful.


  5. What works for me any song by Jimmy Buffett.

     

    If you don't know who he is. For shame on you. The best song (other than RC's pick of the week) would be 'FruitCakes'. Its very appropo.

    TTFN my Friends


  6. Tokar, thats a good one. I think if I had a personalized smilie, it would be Marvin the martain, in dress blues and his cartoon outfit, holding an American Flag and a ray gun, standing on top of the earth with a dogdish cocked to one side.

    Happy 106'th Birthday to the U.S. Navy Hospital Corps....... The only all enlisted corps in the Military!!!!! Thank you for your courage and sacrafice in the face of danger...... "Semper Gumby"

  7. Doc Niel, Feeling freer, than a jaybird. Hopped onto the deck, Once again blinded by the sun, having to block his eyes, almost trips over the spare rigging rope, and into the water. Caught on the arm by the seaman working with the rope. "Doc" says he," ya ought ta be tending ta were ye be goin!" "that fall would've hurt ya big."

    Doc Niel truns around and wide eyed looks at the man and "quietly says "thank you", "I'm not sure if I be survivn that fall." I own ye my thanks and me tankard the next I gets me some ration of rum if'in the Admiral allows it."

    The seaman, taken aback "sayin ye ta give me ya next ration of rum?" "Aye, Tis what I say to ya."

     

    "Well, Bless me if'in I'd never hear an officer says that ta me!" " well, then You are so blessed."

    With that Doc Niel goes with a nod, to find Lt. Riker for a favor.


  8. Last night I had a very lucid dream thanks to the Nic Patch(really got to remember to take it off before I hit the bed)

     

    Not me but myself and some friends were trapped in a house that wouldn't let us out, and finally a friend of mine dicided to jump otu the front door over a chasm, and fell.


  9. Standing on the deck of the KongoMaru, Doc Niel looks back at Mr. Worf. Says" Mr. Worf ya thinking we be workin here ta bring life back to these men, Bring me ta the herbalist" With a grunt Worf grabs Doc Niel by the arm with a jolt, and leads him with a snarl to the herbalist. Mr. Worf taps the herbalist on the shoulder who turns, with a look of distrust eyes the disshevled body of Doc Niel up and down, says" you sir are terrible, you have the look of the smoke about you. you here to help?" With a slow bow of the head to the old master with a low "Yes, Yes I am. My name is Doc Niel, Surgeon of the Elusive, and I am here ta help."

     

    With that the old man, turns bends low, mixing some herbs with tea, turns back and with a gesture of friendship, hands the cup to Doc Niel and says" Drink this tonic, this will help get the opium out of your head!" Doc Niel, with trembling hands takes the cup, and with a sniff of the foul concotion handed to him. Impatiently, Mr Worf snarls, "drink it up, or i'll keel haul ya meself." with that Doc Niel takes i big breath and with one gulp takes the foul liquid and swallows it all, holding the cup upside down, so as toshow Mr. Worf that he took it all. Mr. Worf, satisfied with this turns to the Herbalist and says" Old man he is all yours, I'll keep watch on him to make sure he doesn't do any wrong." "If he be givin you any trouble, tell me and he will be punished quickly."

     

    Doc Niel, stumbles for a moment, quickly regains his footing by holding onto the gulrail of the ship, shakes his head, looks for his bag, looks toward the herbalist, and says" Bloody hell, what was that foul putrid drrink ya gave me?" With that, the Herbalist, says, "help me" and I will help you." With that Doc Niel bends over to help the next poor soul wonded soul.


  10. Yes I admit it! I admit when I'm wrong, though if you ask some people they'll tell you I'm the most selfish person they know. Though this is only one persons opinion about me. It should weigh, I've known them forever, but then again we really don't know each other anyway, so what does it matter. If you want to get to know someone and they don't let you past there defenses. :)

    Thanks for letting me ramble on about this.

  11. Pardon my ignorance, how do you mean Playing up?

     

    I know that both my computer at work and my laptop, Once I log on, I'm logged on till i sign off. I don't think its kept me on otherwise, but hey you never know. I do know that when I started coming to the site I did have some trouble with logging on/off but it seems that has resolved. As far as messing aroound with computers I still have no idea how to erase a cookie. :)

  12. (ILS that was really good. Hope this adds to it all)

     

     

     

     

    Sitting in the Brig, all I could think about is what the admiral said ta me when she grabbed me arm "I run this ship." Aye beings scared and all wanted nothing more than to let he know that Yes, me knows you running this ship, What would I know of running her, I know nothing of navigation, charts and the like I just signs on ta be the surgeon, Aye, all me wanted to do is see what is there ta sees is all. knows, I be stuck here in this filt, and why, why I say its all on acount of this drug I learnt about over theres in china, man isit good. Is beens shivering and all fevers fer days now, and on top of that I be spewed on by me fellow inmate, Poor dear fellow, Is believes this ones got it worse than me, for he one of the other boats captains, being hes been trying ta get friendly like. I be hoping that they give him back his boat an all. thAT IS IF SHE'LL( the boat that is) lets him come back.

     

    But I come back to that line "I run this ship." I'd be daft to try and take it from 'er.

    Why'd she say that ta me? Of all people, I must ask'er if I's ever ta get out of this one. Me momma, I thinks was right, ta ask me not ta leave, Its been forever and a day, since I left her at the docks bound for the far side of the world. Will I se her alive again?

     

    With that Doc Niel starts to sob again, not knowing, not caring, where his head is or who just came through the door........


  13. Well maybe, not a forum, as such but more like a chat room setting, just Like Im. I say this because not everyone has/ is on the same IM menu as everyone else is.

    Is there a way to open a chat room, on the site?

     

    If so I for one would use it. I do agree however, that REAL-Time is the best way to go. For a lot of reasons.


  14. I myself, had not run into some of the problems, some of you have had.....

    (then again I've only been here for 2 months)

     

    But

     

    I have seen where, when two people have a problem, and need to dish it out.

    Such was a fact last week, Where I was asked to mediate, as well as one other person was asked to do the same, a dispute between 2 other members. This was a very effect way to hadle the anger/ frustration, etc between them. In the end, I felt it went a lot better than I thought it would, and it worked out that they were able to see each others problems and realized that, they had the same problems, and worked out a solution with out slinging "MUD" at each other. All in all in the end it was a pleasure to do this for the both of them.

     

    I feel that this should be the way to go when disputes get heated up. Eithe through IM, or in a dispute forum. There by a disinterested thrid party, or a fourth if warrented could make sure that Disputs are settled calmly, and solutions could then be worked out!!!!!!!!! :blink: :hug:

     

    Just a thought, though. :laugh:

  15. I want to go back to the islands, and Lie beside the sea there, with a tin cup for a chalice fill it up with good red wine, and I'll be chewing on a honey suckle vine. Whops got JB on the brain.

     

    Don't get me wrong, I love the winter time, but there is something about the carribian that just talked to me.

    Was it the rum??


  16. ~Meawhile back on the elusive~

     

     

     

    As their commander sits with these men, that she once called comrades, and spins her tales of childhood. She turns to worf and says" Now that we have there attention, what should be done with tHem Mr. Worf?"

     

    Worf, stands there, with his arms still crossed over his chest stands there and ponders for a few moments before he speaks: "Admiral" says he, "they should be punished for there behavior!!" But first I believes they should be resposible for cleaning up this mess, and them selves before they are tried and punishment is carried out."

     

    "And what praytell, should there punishments be, if ye was I?"

     

    Worf showing no concern in his face, directly points to ILS and says" HE, He should be lashed till as good time as the Admiral sees fit to lash em. That is a fitting punishment for his folley." "And you," Pointing to Doc Niel with a gleam in his eye, "You should be Keel Hauled while under sail till you are nolonger fit to sail with the likes of the elusive and its fine crew, says I" " I for one would not trust the man, with my life, and if I may say so, Admiral, the crew would not trust em at all. For his, is not better than the rats in the ballast of ye ship...."

     

     

    Well Mr. Worf, remind me to never cross ye." She turns to both men and says" Mr. Worf, in his capasity on this ship is correct that bot of ye varlets have done crimes punishible in the manner stated"," But I do believe in Second chances," "Otherwise I would not tell ye the matter of me early days" and pauses to let the silence do its thing" the fact here gentleman, is neither of you is to likely live through their punishment", so as of now, and mr. Worf see to this, that their punishment start, you shall both scrub the other down with sea Sea as you bath." You will then, Clean the other up in such a fashion, using the brushes for the deck tillye be bloody", For then ye shall proceed to clean thy place up. and wait till ye are properly sentenced for your crimes"

     

    With that, the kindly admiral, rises from where she is seated, takes her leave of the three men, whilst Doc Niel is still sobbing in the corner, ILS rises to his feet and starts to make ready himself, for what will happen next. ABOVe them on the main deck of the Elusive, 3 bells are struck, and the lookout yells, "Someman, git the admiral, she be wanting ta see this"......... (the story continues)


  17. Slowly as the days, drift by like the clouds, Worf the wonder of a Klingon he is, refusing the good doctor of a smoke got into a fight that had produced a dislike in the good doctors mouth some 3 days ago, bitterly cralwing into a corner and passing out slipping in and out of concousness until Worf slashing him with a bucket of water wakes the frail doctor up for some food. With a start the frail shape of the doctor thinks for a moment, before taking the food. In a dry crackey voice asks" What Happened" Worf speaks up at once, "you fool, why?, did you not think for one second that we would not find out sooner or later about your habit?" with that kicks the doctors feet saying finish and be quick about it, the Admiral is waiting for and I hope for your sake shes feeling happy.

     

    The Doctor, Noticing that the ship is also rocking a bit more steadily, slowly rising to his feet steading himself on the Barrell and the doorway, Reaching for the wall as worf starts to push him through the door, and Doc Niel slowly walks to meet his Fate
