I've seen Hollywood props and costumes up close. There's a kind of magic to them for me, if I've seen the same things onscreen. If I had my pick, I'd take the real T'Pol's robe. If I could have gone to that Christie's auction, you couldn't have dragged me outta there.
Same here -- too bad my money tree got vaporized in that lightning storm that rolled through here a week or so ago
That's not good news at all. 
Was that fellow actually a bona fide "creep"? Did he lurk outside daycare centers with a camera? Was he a stalker? Or did he just express his enthusiasm in a way most of us would never dream of doing? I understand he got a shock reaction and a big laugh at the convention--which he probably intended to do by wearing the blues--but I don't remember other details. If someone was there, maybe they can chime in. 
As for T'Pol's robe...a blue satin dressing gown that was worn as an overgarment for all but one scene doesn't qualify as "underwear" to me. It's possible that some of the people bidding for it on ebay are simply memorabilia collectors.

"Just because a guy's in his underwear you think the worst."
T'Pol + blue satin dressing gown + Trip's expression = priceless.
I am making my way through s4, and rewatched "Home" last night. It really broke my heart this time, now that I have filled in all the eps I missed.
It was so hard watching her get married, when I know he thought "that should be me." Also, the scene when they are touring the lava pits was really difficult - she is barely holding it together and is trying to logic him into being okay with her decision. Too bad that logic stuff doesn't work so well on a human...
I felt bunnies nipping at my heels again. Maybe another fic will come of it.
p.s. T'Pol mentioned invoking the kalifee -- what are some thoughts on that? If she'd done it, would Trip have died at the hands of Koss, or would he have been the victor? And what do you think his reaction would be to, 'Hey by the way, you gotta fight him to the death'?

Not necessarily, CX.
If my lady were an ENT fan and I wanted to get her a unique birthday or Christmas gift. I'd seriously consider getting her that robe. Particularly if she liked T'Pol. It's not that expensive so far and she'd probably appreciate it.

Duncan, I hope your lady realizes what a romantic dreamboat you are.
Unfortunately, HopefulRomantic, my exterior doesn't match that description too well and my lady died in an auto accident a little under 22 months ago.
But I thank you for the thought. It was very sweet.
And, yes, she did know about my romantic streak.
JiNX-01, it might. But if the bidding goes too high, you can drop out. Just the fact that you tried will be appreciated.
I am so sorry to hear of your loss, Duncan. I hope you have people around you... You certainly have friends here.Duncan MacLeod said:

::hugs:: Duncan.
And I would totally buy a costume, prop or set piece if I had the cash. What I would go for would be something from a favorite character and/or a costume, prop ect that is easily recognizable from an episode. It would be really neat to watch an episode and look at something and say, "Hey, that's sitting in my house right now!" If that thing was the robe from "Harbinger" or the UT from "Demons"/"Terra Prime" or engineearing tools from IAMD or something else recognizable I'd be very happy.

Oh, Duncan...
It was very difficult when it happened, and I'll always miss her, but I've recovered. Mostly anyway.
Yes you do, CX. That's really all you can say.
Thanks to all of you.
Thanks to all of you.
