Historical note: This shared smile is the moment I fell in love with #StarTrek when I was a kid. This wasn't just an away mission with a leader and crew member - the Enterprise crew genuinely liked each other. Eleven-year-old me wanted to be a part of that. #AllStarTrek #TomorrowIsYesterday
Good night everybody! Have a great week! I'm off to spend a chilling hour with our friend Luther. Attaboy! #Svengoolie

Wow, her window got fixed in a hurry. The after-hours rates must have drained him dry. Oh, wait....

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm watching The Ghost & Mr. Chicken after this. That at least has plot.

For the record, shingles does care. It simply doesn't like us. #Svengoolie

Finally, soup's on. It's worth the wait. Now, back to the movie. #Svengoolie

Hi, gang! My dinner isn't done yet, so please don't wait for me. Carry on, and I'll join you when my heavily-garlicked soup is ready. See you soon! #Svengoolie

Note to self: Put extra garlic in tonight's soup. #Svengoolie

The best part of this evening is watching Isis with my own Isis curled up next to me - or mooching part of my dinner. #AllStarTrek #AssignmentEarth

Gary Seven produces the must-have toy of 1968, the sonic screwdriver that also makes people happy. Better'n drugs and twice as legal. #AllStarTrek #AssignmentEarth

After the Wild West Show pays for the new cathedral, TJ and Tuck aren't going to have much money for that ranch in Wyoming. #Svengoolie #BadBusinessModel

I have to do something very similar to this when I have to clip my cats claws.

Wow, back-to-back sayings. "I don't buy fabric. It follows me home."

Arriving late to the show. Greetings, #Svengoolie friends!

The only thing I know about this movie is the score was written by Jerome Moross, who wrote the iconic score for The Big Country, and who should've won the Oscar except it was up against the steamroller of Ben-Hur.
