The only good thing about that Star Trek movie, Star Trek V (directed by William Shatner himself) was that when they got to that planet which was supposed to have the real God on it, the creature they found there said he needed their space ship. Kirk holds up a finger and says "Excuse me. What does God need with a spaceship?" The creature starts throwing bolts of lightening at him. Very satisfying.
There actually is a re-edit of that movie floating around the web where they cut it down to the length of one of the TV shows, structured it like the original show with 4 acts, replaced the music and sound effects with old show material and dropped the entire sub-plot about Spock's brother, the laughing Vulcan. It was pretty good.

I stick with the word supposably as it is considered proper english under certain pretenses.
http://wsu.edu/~brians/errors/supposably.html
Supposedly is the standard form. Supposably can be used only when the meaning is capable of being supposed, and then only in the U.S. You wont get into trouble if you stick with supposedly."
Anyways I miss understood my friend earlier today, he told me IF it was true then SETI would have it verified.

Not to worry, it's just Rove getting his marching orders from the galactic leadership.

This is really bad. Azathoth is there, "encircled by his flopping horde of mindless and amorphous dancers, and lulled by the thin monotonous piping of a demoniac flute held in nameless paws."

Karl did promise that he had an
October surprise.
This would be a doozy (depending on the message).
