[quote:post_uid0="Marc"][color=#000000:post_uid0]I like the almost-invisible joke you slipped into your avatar's signature: "5MD Station Head". Â It took me a while to notice it![/color:post_uid0][/quote:post_uid0]
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Is that a reference to what I think it is? ;)

Woo comma hoo, Derek! Congratulations! :) I do believe the section is in good hands.

All meet or exceed your usual high standard, Derek. Nice work. A few bits from [i:post_uid0]The Adversary:[/i:post_uid0]
[quote:post_uid0]O'Brien: Who's there?
Voice: Nobody here but us chickens![/quote:post_uid0]Hmmm.
[quote:post_uid0]O'Brien: Well, I saw Bashir playing chicken in the Jeffrey Tubes earlier.
Sisko: And he didn't invite me to join him? That is suspicious. [/quote:post_uid0]
[i:post_uid0]Jeffrey[/i:post_uid0] Tubes? Methinks there's a joke here, but I'm missing something.

Other goodies:
[quote:post_uid0]Bashir: Me? I'm not a saboteur!
O'Brien: Then where are your sabots?[/quote:post_uid0]
[quote:post_uid0]Bolian: Rabbit season!
Kira: Duck season![/quote:post_uid0]
[quote:post_uid0]Odo: Before we fight, there is something you should know: I am not left-handed.

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Massive congradulations to you, [b:post_uid0]Double-D[/b:post_uid0]... or should I
say "triple D" since you in charge of 5M[b:post_uid0][u:post_uid0]D[/u:post_uid0][/b:post_uid0]?
:D
As soon as I buy Season One on DVD, I'll be writing you
a letter requesting an EP (or two.)[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]:D More DS9 fivers!
YAY
YAYYAY
YAYYAYYAY
And they're funny! And they're fun!
[quote:post_uid0]Mene mene tekel uparsin. Amen.[/quote:post_uid0]
Why is Sisko mentioning a nickname for dachshunds (tekel) in German? Huh? Are you saying dachshunds are aliens? cus theyre not. Or German? Cus they are.
Okay, I'de write more contructive but I'm a little high on allergy meds and its a little late.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]::scratches his head... he was SURE he'd posted a congrats to Derek... and he's PRETTY sure he didn't put anything in it that would need to be censored... but maybe that was in one of the alternate realities or something. No matter.::

Congrats, Derek! ;) Good to hear the DS9 section is going to be vitalized. So you're the one I'm gonna have to e-mail when I figure out which DS9 eps I want to five before TNN starts reairing them and all the eps get reserved...

So wait - why 5MD and not 5MDS9?[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Easy -- too many letters.[/color:post_uid0]

ijdgaf 06-13-2003 04:29 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]So I've only read a few (I'm seriously behind on what DS9 I've seen and what I haven't), but this section is definitely in great hands.

On another note, [i:post_uid0]American History X[/i:post_uid0] just happens to be my favorite movie of all time :([/color:post_uid0]

Easy -- too many letters.[/color:post_uid0][/quote:post_uid0]
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Yup. In naming the subsites, I use only as many letters as I need to avoid ambiguity. 5MVG, for example, needs the G to distinguish it from 5MV; same story for 5MST and 5MSG because of 5MS.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]That and, in the book, it's called a StarGate. SG. ;)[/color:post_uid0]

Andy Taylor 06-15-2003 01:17 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Yay! More Niner Fivers! That can only be a good thing, and these were really funny - great job Derek!

Also congrats on your new status - 5MD is gonna rule! :D[/color:post_uid0]

Standback 06-16-2003 01:11 AM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, how narrow minded. What if, a few years down the road, you suddenly decide to Five-Minute-Dallas? Five-Minute-Dilbert? Five-Minute-Dharma-and-Greg? Five-Minute-Dexter's-Laboratory? Huh, huh? You gonna be the one to tell PHJ, one "5MD" is an established trademark, that because you didn't want to type out two more letters, he can't do Five-Minute-Doctor-Who?

People just don't think ahead.

:D[/color:post_uid0]

catalina_marina 06-16-2003 11:48 AM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Five-Minute-Dharma-and-Greg:5MDG
Five-Minute-Dexter's-Laboratory: 5MDL
Five-Minute-Doctor-Who: 5MDW

It's not all that hard.[/color:post_uid0]

PointyHairedJedi 06-16-2003 07:10 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, if I remember correctly, more 5MDW fivers have been promised anyway.

*Nudges Zeke repeatedly*

And frankly Five-Minute Dilbert is just an impossibility. There's no way it could be made any funnier than it already is.[/color:post_uid0]


Marc 06-16-2003 10:36 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]>> And frankly Five-Minute Dilbert is just an impossibility. <<

I'm chuckling quietly to myself here, for reasons that will become apparent on Day Three of A/U Week.[/color:post_uid0]

PointyHairedJedi 06-16-2003 11:20 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Hmmm. I'm....intrigued, to say the least.[/color:post_uid0]

Rats, I see no single word 'D' programs that I see any possibility of ever being fived.

Five Minute Doug, anyone?

-Draknek, also intruiged[/color:post_uid0]

NAHTMMM 06-17-2003 01:15 AM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]"Dragnet"? Or just start up your own show about the good ship [i:post_uid0]Draknek[/i:post_uid0]. ;)[/color:post_uid0]
