Welcome.
Yesterday, we lost more than an actor, more than a director,
more than a photographer, we lost an inspirational man.
It would be easy for us to only think of that loss and be sad. Do not misunderstand me,
I feel the sadness of the passing of Leonard Nimoy,
but I am heartened by the body of his work and the effect it has had on me.
In fact, I’ll admit after learning of his passing, I strongly considered not doing any new caption contests this week.
This led me to go through TrekCore’s rare photos of Mr. Nimoy to put together a photo collage
in respect of him and to announce the contests going dark for the weekend.
Then, something unexpected happened. As I was going through these photos,
I was awestruck at how an overwhelming amount of these photos had Mr. Nimoy in laughter or a huge smile.
So, the show will go on, as I can’t think of any better way to pay tribute
to a great man like Leonard Nimoy than to make ourselves and each other smile and laugh.
I fully understand if everyone does not share this opinion and wishes to abstain for the time being,
I respect that position and look forward to the time when you wish to return.
May you all Live Long and Prosper.

Thank you TrekCore for the enormous library of media to not only create the above collage but to create this and many other caption contests.
And now..
First up to the plate, we have the "Extras" Award, going to:
Worf (thinking): "Who the hell are these people?"
Next, we have the "Games" Award, going to:
Riker: Beverly Crusher, Nurse Ogawa, and Katherine Pulaski.
Worf: Those choices may be honorable, but foolish. Pulaski, Ogawa, and Lwaxana would be the warrior's choice.
Data: Query...Shag, Marry, or Kill?
Next, we have the "Manhunt" Award, going to:
Worf: Worf to Command, suspect 'Waldo' is not on the bridge, either.
Next, we have the "Klingon Dandruff" Award, going to:
TROI: It might be time to switch to a stronger shampoo.
Next, we have the "Birds and the Klingon Bees" Award, going to:
Worf: "You are fully dilated to ten centimeters, and are ready to have sex with a true warrior."
Security Chief's Log: After getting my arse kicked by every single alien ever I have stopped taking risks and only travel with two guards and a drawn phaser at all times.
Worf: I'm leaving home, and I'm never coming back!
Picard: That's nice, Lieutenant.
Worf: I'm serious this time!
Picard: Of course you are.
Many thanks to everyone who participated and congratulations to our winners!
Inflatabledalek, thanks for the great idea to do a "Unification" themed contest for this week. It does seem to be the most appropriate contest to do this week.
We will resume our character contests next week.
And now... to captioning!
Enjoy!
