Decisions, Decisions

What should I ask of Santa Claus for Christmas?

1) "The Ultimate Star Trek Collection," a 212-disc set that boldly goes where no Trekkie DVD collection has gone before, assembling 10 feature films and every episode from all five broadcast series, plus hours of interviews and rare footage, a bargain priced at under $2,499.

or

2) a life.

I want the life, but I need the Trek.

1000th execution since 1977? Shouldn't the guy have got a prize or something?

Maybe you should ask Santa Claus to add an extra "e" to the end of his name, since you seem to fond of spelling it that way regardless.

Posted by: Jeff B. on December 2, 2005 12:12 PM

Ask him for the ability to spell "Santa Claus".

Posted by: Allah on December 2, 2005 12:12 PM

"I need the Trek" - which is why you don't have a life.

Posted by: max on December 2, 2005 12:17 PM

Ha. Even the omnipotent Allah takes a backseat when it comes to the spelling & grammar pedanticism of Jeff B.

Posted by: Jeff B. on December 2, 2005 12:17 PM

Ace,

Don't let these spelling nazis get you down. Everyone knows that in recent years Santa has toughened up by spelling his last name "Claws".

The intimidating power of his new name is the only way he can keep Dick Cheney from stealing his sleign and raping Rudolph.

stealing his sleign

What's a sleign?

What kind of a Geek are you, Ace? The so-called "Ultimate" collection doesn't even include the Animated Series.

Free Arex and M'ress!

Ace: buddy don't be posting things like this. Now my Christmas budget is all blown to hell. I had everything put aside in my chirstmas present saving account and now I'm short $2,499. The only thing to do is start my own blog and get some of the obscene blog money profits like you have. I figure three days of posting naked testicle man pictures would get my traffic up enough to pay the bill.

A life might get you laid.

Several thousand dollars of Trek... won't.

'nuff said.

Posted by: DaveP. on December 2, 2005 02:39 PM

A life might get you laid.

Several thousand dollars (more carefully spent) will.

In Tijuana 10 hookers and a cougar would only set him back about $47.

Posted by: scott on December 2, 2005 02:58 PM

Don't you have to pay a deposit on the cougar?

(And, let's face it, they're never going to refund your deposit when you bring it back in that condition.)

Posted by: Phinn on December 2, 2005 03:11 PM

In Tijuana, the odds are that every one of those 10 hookers formerly had first names ending with the letter "O."

Posted by: Rob@L&R on December 2, 2005 03:20 PM

Mastercard covers the Cougar, its like car rental insurance.

Posted by: scott on December 2, 2005 03:42 PM

Here's something that won't get you laid:
