[color=#000000ost_uid0]10. Finally having time for all those little things you always meant to get around to, like checking if she was really kidding about that divorce.
9. Become convinced that the site is down for good, and begin campaigning for millions in grants to recreate the great works of literature lost.
8. Attempting to measure the exact length of this particular "soon."
7. Turning in desperation to other sources of net humor, such as http://www.pointlesswasteoftime.com .
6. Wearing out your browser's "Refresh" key.
5. Coming up for new ideas for ridiculous topics in the "Miscellaneous" forums.
4. Pondering the cruel, harsh nature of a reality deprived of 5MV.
3. Purchasing server space to mirror the site, to ensure that such a travesty never befalls planet Earth again.
2. Writing a BaW about the site being down.
1. Constructing an elaborate theory regarding the conspiracy between the Xindi and the Suliban to take down 5MV, rashly ignoring the conclusion of the Vulcan Science Directory that time travel is impossible.

[color=#000000ost_uid0]10. The "U.S.S. Black Pearl" just doesn't have the same ring to it.
9. Star Trek's nice enough, I suppose, but it can't really compare to something based on a Disneyland ride.
8. The whole "it only [iost_uid0]looks[/iost_uid0] as if we aren't dead, motionless corpses" bit has already been done to death with seven seasons of Chakotay.
7. Johnny Depp doesn't look nearly as good in a Starfleet uniform.
6. [bost_uid0]Will Turner:[/bost_uid0] I will fight to the finish, with my incredible skills of swordsmanship!
[bost_uid0]Klingon Disruptor:[/bost_uid0] **ZAP**
5. No facial hair allowed onboard early Starfleet vessels.
4. Might set Reed off about his family's long history of distinction in the Navy again.
3. Too many obvious jokes about Legolas on the Enterprise.
2. Absence of moonlight aborad starships tends to diminish the ability to demonstrate hideous curses and expensive special effects.
1. Because the Vulcan Science Directorate has concluded that time travel is impossible.
