Red Warrior's Journal: That's why he's the goddamn Captain.

Yes, it is perfectly reasonable that Kirk had the know-how to make the gunpowder and put together the bazooka to defeat the Gorn. That's why he's the goddamn Captain.

Of my entire cubicle, I am the LEAST trekkie...

Very tangental, a while back, someone made a post linking to a cartoon along the lines of "next time, I'm not going unless they make me a Major". I can't find where it was now. If 'twas you (or you just have a freakishly good memory), please repost...

Huh

And all this time I just thought it was because it was in the script;-)

What I want to know is, how did he know what saltpeter tasted like? That is how he identified it when he fount it, isn't it?

'Cause Spock's Peter is salty? ;-)

I've heard rumors that Salt Peter is added to water in military training camps to prevent the men from becoming randy. Maybe this is still standard at Starfleet. Could also be why Kirk banged every alien chick he saw... making up for lost time.

What was that?

I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of how awesome I am.

Those star trek inspirational posters kick a lot of ass.... especially when you hang them in the middle of the IT department ;)

It's linked from your JE "Woot of the Second Part". The link seems dead now, though.

Thar she blows
