[Well, aye tried shuvving a weiner in the wope drive, but it deedn't do a
beet of gude.  By the woy, would you have a wee bit o' mustid upon the pridge?]

The book "My Enemy, My Ally", by an author whose name escapes me now, is now
available in paperback form.  Someone I know had it as of this past Saturday
(6/30).

A long time ago, Leonard Nimoy put out a record called "The Two Sides of
Leonard Nimoy".  One side was himself, the other was Mr. Spock.  On the
Spock side, there was a song called "Highly Illogical", which has
received airplay on the Dr. Demento [radio] show.  Here's one of the
verses:
         Take the case of your automobiles.
         Greatest invention since man's discovered wheels.
           Hydro-matic overdrive, four-on-the-floor
           Push-buton windows, push-button door
           Double-barreled carbuerators rush you anyplace
           But you never can find a parking space.
             (Highly illogical.)
I think this record is out of print, so if you are trying to get a copy,
start combing through all the used record shops around where you live.
(If anyone knows more info. about the record, let me know.)

Another ST3 question:  Whatever happened to Maltz, the Klingon taken prisoner?
He wasn't a part of the Vulcan landing party.  My guess is he's still on board
the Wing of Prey, presumably in some lockup.  (MAIL me the answer, please--
let's avoid the flood to the net!)
  
Finally, a dumb joke re: ST2 (Don't say I didn't warn you!  But then again,
you might have heard it before...)
  I found it amusing that Chekov was captain of the RELIANT, which also
is the name of a K-car (manufactured by Chrysler).  And which car company
did Ricardo Montalban do advertisements for?   :-)   :-!   :-(

"Live long, and perspire."  << someone else I know said that.

I don't think you meant that Chekov was captain of the Reliant (do you?).
It was Captain Terrell (Paul Winfield).
