        "The Good Ship Enterprise" (to the tune of "The Good Ship Lollipop")

On the good ship Enterprise
Every week there's a new surprise
Where the Romulans lurk
And the Klingons often go berserk.

Yes, the good ship Enterprise
There's excitement anywhere it flies
Where Tribbles play
And Nurse Chapel never gets her way.

        See Captain Kirk standing on the bridge,
        Mr. Spock is at his side.
        The weekly menace, ooh-ooh
        It gets fried, scattered far and wide.

It's the good ship Enterprise
Heading out where danger lies
And you live in dread
If you're wearing a shirt that's red.

        -- Doris Robin and Karen Trimble of The L.A. Filkharmonics

WHY COFFEE IS BETTER THAN WOMEN:* Coffee doesn't complain when you put whipped cream in it. A cup of coffee looks good in the morning. You won't fall asleep after a cup of coffee. You can always warm coffee up. Coffee comes with endless refills. Coffee is cheaper. You won't get arrested for ordering coffee at 3 AM. Coffee never runs out. Coffee is out of your system by tomorrow morning. You can make coffee as sweet as you want. Coffee smells and tastes good. You can always get fresh coffee. You can turn the pot on, leave the room, and it'll be hot when you get back. They sell coffee at police stations. If you put chocolate in your coffee, it doesn't put on weight. No matter how ugly you are, you can always get a cup of coffee. A big cup or small cup? It doesn't matter. Your coffee doesn't talk to you. Coffee smells good in the morning. Coffee is good when it's cold too. Coffee doesn't care what kind of mood you're in. Coffee doesn't shed. Coffee is ready in 15 minutes or less. You can't get a cup of coffee pregnant by putting cream in it. Coffee doesn't mind being ground. No matter how bad coffee is, you can always make it better. When coffee gets old, you can throw it away. Coffee doesn't take up half your bed. INSTANT COFFEE! You can have an intelligent conversation with coffee. It can take up to 2 weeks for coffee to grow mold. Your coffee won't be jealous of a larger cup. *I don't mean to imply that I actually believe this, but after all the beer vs. cucumbers debates that I've heard... I think that I'm almost entitled to put this sort of thing here.

Contradictions discovered in conventional wisdom: He who hesatates is lost. BUT Look before you leap. Birds of a feather flock together BUT Opposites attract. You're never too old to learn BUT You can't teach an old dog new tricks. Ask no questions and hear no lies BUT Ask and you shall receive Variety is the spice of life BUT Don't change horses in midstream. Doubt is the beginning, not the end, of wisdom BUT Faith will move mountains. The pen is mightier thatn the sword BUT Actions speak louder than words. Don't cross the bridge till you come to it BUT Forewarned is forearmed. Silence is Golden BUT The squeaky wheel gets the grease. Clothes make the man BUT Never judge a book by its cover. All the above from Reader Digest Oct. '93. By Rod L. Evans & Irwin M. Berent.

COMMENT Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song, A medley of extemporanea; And love is thing that can never go wrong; And I am Marie of Roumania. -- Dorothy Parker
There was a young poet named Dan, Whose poetry never would scan. When told this was so, He said, "Yes, I know. It's because I try to put every possible syllable into that last line that I can." There once was a man from the Styx Whose limericks went to line six. He never did know How far they should go, And never did bother to fix Them at all. There once was a man on the floor Whose limericks went to line four. He'd start up the trend, and then it would end. There once was a man from the stix, Who liked to write limericks. But he failed at the sport, Because he wrote them too short. There once was a lady from Bree Whose limericks went to line three, And never went farther. There once was a lady from Crewe Whose limerics went to line two. There once was a man from Verdun.
Said Einstein, "I have an equation," "Which some might call Rabelaisian:" "Let P be viginity," "Approaching infinity," "And let U be a constant, persuasion."

"Here's a story, of a Dole banana, Who was hanging way up in a banana tree, All his friends had peels of gold, like the others The youngest ones still green. Here's a story, of a papaya, Who was hanging on a branch that he called 'home'. They were two fruits in the same jungle, Yet they were all alone. Til the one day when the banana met the papaya, And they knew that it was much more than a hunch, That these two fruits should somehow form a soft drink, And that's the way that we all got Hawaiian Punch! Hawaiian Punch! Hawaiian Punch! That's the way that we all got Hawaiian Punch!" - Mike Rayburn
Jack and Jill Went up the hill To fetch a pail of water. Silly Jill forgot the pill And now they have a daughter. - Unknown
"Now sit right back and you'll hear a tale, A tale of a fateful trip, That started at this Bajorin Port, Aboard this Fed'ration Ship! The mate was a Native Amer-i-can, The skipper, a chick... well, sure! Our crew set out that fateful day, On another five year tour. Another five year tour! The plot, it started getting weak, The tiny ship was tossed, Across the space-time contin-u-um, The Voyager, it was lost! The Voyager, it was lost! The ship wound up too far away, To return before they died. With the Ind-i-an, The Captain too! The Hol-o-gram, And the Maquis! The new re-cruit, The black Vulcan and the al-i-ens, Here on Star Trek Voy-a-ger!"

I was in a job interview and I opened a book and started reading. Then I said to the guy, "Let me ask you a question.

Q: How many humans does it take to change a light bulb? A: Not sure; I only know it takes only one to press the button which obliterates them all. The problem is estimating how many thousand years will be required to rediscover the technology to manufacture more and replace them.

Some thoughts on Jesus and Elvis: (Don't ask where this one came from!) Jesus said: "Love thy neighbor." (Matthew 22:39) Elvis said: "Don't be cruel." (RCA, 1956) Jesus walked on water. (Matthew 14:25) Elvis surfed. (Blue Hawaii, Paramount, 1965) Jesus was resurrected. Elvis had the famous 1968 "comeback" TV special. Jesus said, "If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink." (John 7:37) Elvis said, "Drinks on me!" (Jailhouse Rock, MGM, 1957)
"Alternative Girl" Kurt Cobain is dead, so as his body a-molders, Alternative Girl, can I cry on your shoulder? I'll wipe salty tears with your flannel shirt and hold onto your hand to ease unending hurt I saw you at a show just the other night and you were lookin' alternative all right Whether dancin' around or just standing there with your overalls and Docs and the dye in your hair You looked so much like all of your friends who try to be different by following trends You were smoking your Camels and bobbing your head I thought you were cool for making yourself dead There's nothing like a girl who reeks of rank smoke like the kind in my heart full of coals that you stoke Later I saw you with some punk pals at Denny's like a flower with earrings in a field of many Acting like a rebel in the rebel crowd driving 'round in your van with the radio loud So come with me to a coffee house joint We'll drink lots of coffee and say, "What's the point?" We'll talk about Beats and wish we lived then so we could have been posers who got into Zen We'll curse being labelled as "Generation X" while we watch MTV and have lots of sex We'll go to Lollapalooza and dress really punk and get covered with mud and buy overpriced junk and wear the t-shirt to school just to show that we went and sneer at the teachers whom we often resent 'cause they lived in the sixties when the youth had a cause whereas all we can protest are the bountiful flaws of an upper-class life with our parents the squares and the trouble with us is that nobody cares We've got nothing to say and we think even less which naturally causes us endless distress. So then we'll start our own music 'zine and write lots of reviews and be slightly obscene with an old worn-out typewriter and a bottle of glue and a friend at the copy show who's alternative, too Then we'll pass it around in our circle of friends who act sad and depressed and sit on their rear ends as they bitch about life in the suburbs with Dad and they couldn't get a car so now they're so sad O the Angst! the despair and the unfounded woe! O the things we won't do and the places we won't go! It's ok to be lazy! it's ok to be glum! 'cause we'll live in a world full of cloves and of rum So let's wear lots of black and buy numerous books that we'll carry around to draw numerous looks from our peers at the clubs who buy Sartre and Camus but can never quite read it 'cause they're always so blue And we'll stay up all night and fall asleep on the floor Alternative Girl, who could ever want more? - From the summer 1994 Kyosaku, a publication by Mike Janssen.

Friends, Romans, Hipsters, Let me clue you in; I come to put down Caeser, not to groove him. The square kicks some cats are on stay with them; The hip bits, like, go down under; so let it lay with Caeser. The cool Brutus Gave you the message: Caeser had big eyes; If that's the sound, someone's copping a plea, And, like, old Caeser really set them straight. Here, copacetic with Brutus and the studs, -- for Brutus is a real cool cat; So are they all, all cool cats, -- Come I to make this gig at Caeser's laying down.
