Let Janeway have the coffee nebula

Feb 27, 2003 07:45

We have finally flushed all of the excess water out of the cargo bays, and are now en route to one of the nebulae that are made entirely of alcohol. We plan to suck it all into cargo bay #2. And, because of the speed of light and the distance involved, no one will notice for 74.088 years that the nebula has gone missing - Not that it matters. ( Read more... )

This nebula-of-alcohol thing sounds vaguely familiar. Count me in!

Oh, and if we find that nebula-of-nitrous-oxide and that nebula-of-lysergic-acid-diethylamide, please let me know.

The first alcohol nebula was discovered by Terrans (who else would be searching space for alcohol? No wonder it took them so long to find the "less important" things, like safe nuclear power, extraterrestrial life, and so on) in their 20th century.
By the way, Lothar thought that it would be funny to sculp one of the ice masses to look exactly like your personal ship -- so watch out for the gunners and their target practice.

Those wacky Terrans! Their problem is that they don't drink enough.

Lothar's idea is pretty funny, but if my ship gets blasted then he won't be able to enjoy the present I'm bringing him. I found something he'll really enjoy down in my ship's storage locker...

That is what I keep tellin' 'em...

I came across a valuable quote while studying Terran entertainment. In the mid 20th century, there was a movie where one character complained, "Isn't it awfully early to start drinking?" and another replied, "Listen, baby doll, when you drink as much as I do, you have to start early." I am gratified to see that human nature has not changed that much since then, as it makes my studies easier.

Er, what?

That they need to drink more, perhaps you need to drink more. Hell I know I do...

This is where we all go down in history as the only people to drink a nebula.

Perhaps if we had more altered states, we'd have fewer warring states. But what the hell do I know? I'm so high I can't count my toes.
