A coffee on the deck in the morning … like right now … is nice[/quote]
Shouldn’t that be Holodeck?

I’ll even put up with the occasional wasp & mosquito - and the darned magpies

Good choice. Here is full of crazy people. Save yourself.

Or sit back on your (holo)deck and sip a Raktajino!

Romulan ale :stuck_out_tongue:

I love coffee and chocolate, but Rich seems to like tea.
That Ovaltine thing that he is saying now is novelty.
Raktajino Bortas should be an option for him.
I’m not a trekker, I’m a Sci-Fi everything. Maybe one day I’ll find patience to watch even Sharknado. :slight_smile:

I’m not sure @Geoff Perlman would be happy if I was drinking Romulan ale before noon on a work day! I’ll just stick to Raktajino until I clock out :slight_smile:

It was entertaining, but you may need a Romulan ale or 3 to get through it!

Uh, Alyssa, your Trekkie is showing! :slight_smile:

Hmm, something about puppets and coffee? My Klingon begins and ends with Qapla’, a serious fault of my own as my cousin has been offering to teach me for years.

Fun Fact: We entertained the idea of translating the IDE into Klingon a few years ago. It’s still on my To Do list, someday I want to make that happen!
