*notices that the velociraptors were so hungry they ate each other, and that there is now only 1 left.*

Ahhhh!
Isn't it cute?
(Bit tatty round the edges and at the extremities though.)
Anyone got any bandages?

*rushes in with gauze, TCP, Iodine, elastic bandaging, and tape...
Now who needs mummifying? 
But be careful that you watch what I'm doing...I am watching Trek Voyager at the same time as doing these bandages!

No Betadine? Well I suppose that is a type of iodine.
Wouldn't it be more appropriate to watch 'Ultimate Guide: Mummies'? then I could get instruction on two fronts, so to speak.

Your gonna dab a ravinous velociraptor with iodine? 
Very brave of you.

Well, Betadine would be better, as it doesn't sting.
I was thinking of turning it into an art project.
Using Betadine (yellow/brown), tinture of mercury (red), Tetramiacene (Purple spray) and finishing off with lycetol (green spray to keep the flies off).
It would look very pretty with the white bandages.

You didn't say they were ravinous!
The exact statement was *opens a cage full of ravished velociraptors.*
Poor things - they weren't in a very fit condition to start with - were they?

*head in hands*
Oh dear have I let myself in to be a geek!?
Q is an omnipotent being from the "Q continuum" who pops up in various series of Star Trek. I've only seen him in DS9 and Voyager though I'm sure he probably turns up in others.
And the titles of these posts reminds me of...well yeah you all know what

Q originally showed up in Star Trek .. Next Generation.
He drove Picard to distraction and became a nuisance everytime he appeared.
Oh.. now I sound like a

I remember that one too Kat... but he was in the first series of Next Generation and he also finished the final series too... deciding that Humans were worthwhile saving.
He wanted Janeway to mother his child

Well if we are going to be picky about it. Q is also the reason why the Borg became aware of the federation in the first place and began the journey to assimilate Earth.
