just don't call him Doctor

'they're going to use Mr. Spock in one of the Superbowl commercials! ha ha!'

'hey, isn't he dead?'

'no, that's Scotty. i don't think Mr. Spock can die. Actually, i don't think he's a mister, shouldn't he be called like 'commander' or something?'

'i don't know much about it, but my husband's a trekkie. i think it's lieutenant commander or something.'

'yeah, why don't you ask him?'

'...okay, thanks, bye. In the beginning he started out as a science officer. then he became an admiral.'

'then who's Dr. Spock?'

'oh brother, that's a whole different kind of Spock all together.'

  3. We sought the help of Dr. Spock many a time over the past two years.

    I've never once had to call on Mr. Spock.

  6. Does it really matter? Shouldn’t we be focusing on what’s important? They spent all that money on a commercial for pain medication, but they failed to supply us with a sample in order to deal with the pain of watching that commercial.

  7. Dr. Spock is good for beginning life.

    Mr. Spock does better on ending it - Vulcans have interesting abilities.

  8. Um… it’s been almost a week without a new post. Frankly, this is a little ridiculous. Did you get a life or something? I can’t believe that you would be so cruel as to leave us all hanging for such a painfully long time. Don’t you care about us? I feel so used…

  9. i guess i had that coming to me, eh jon? for all the ragging i do about your infrequent posting.

    i've been trying to play catch-up after being ill, but really, that's not much of an excuse. i hope to have something new up very soon.
