Remember, statistically speaking, you only have a 1 in 50,000 chance of flying on a plane with supernatural oxygen failure. You're much safer on a haunted train. #HouseofSvengoolie

On a scale of 1="Groovie Goolies" and 10= Blue Öyster Cult, I give that song a 1. #HouseofSvengoolie

Sorry. This blatant Fanboy service of Archer getting a face full of boobs is actually kind of annoying. #allstartrek

Good thing T'Pring read the room. She could have picked McCoy to fight with Spock. #allstartrek

One of the cooler parts about the various #allstartrek shows is how alien officers & staffers ENJOY observing our little human quirks.

Anyone reminded of that time Will Robinson and Dr. Smith went inside a giant Robot to fix it? #allstartrek
