STENDEC is a coded message only gorns could interpret. Unfortunately I lost my codebook and therefor cannot tell you it's meaning.
Don't tell me - you lost the codebooks when you crashed your Star Cruiser into Lake Michigan? [;)]

No, it was when my ship exploded over Chelyabinsk.[:(]

Kenneth, what is the frequency?

"What's the frequency, Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh
I was brain-dead, locked out, numb, not up to speed
I thought I'd pegged you an idiot's dream
Tunnel vision from the outsider's screen
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh"

Writer(s): Bill Berry, Michael Stipe, Peter Buck, Michael Mills

I suspect Canoerebel has never heard of REM and was rather referring to the assault on newsman Dan Rather. (See what I did there?)

This article tells the story, and also offers a decent theory on who "Kenneth" might have been.

Great -- I am supposed to be getting back to work, then I clicked on the article, then clicked on the Youtube link within the article, then spent close to 20 minutes watching a series of performances by Bon Scott fronting for AC/DC ...

For anyone who is not amused by that, I have this. If you don't like this you're either ___ or seriously in need of therapy.

This is from "Boy on a Dolphin". The only problem with the film is it starred Alan Ladd instead of me!

According to Mr. Atkinson she was something of a street denizen (perhaps) in a burb of Napoli when the Americans came through. If so she's the most important thing liberated during the war. Says me.

Actually, here's the real reason Gorn lost not only his code book but his ship.

The ship, USS Enterprise, Commanded by Captain James Tiberius Kirk had followed the Gorn back to Earth get him to change his evil ways. It worked. Now he plays "War in the Pacific Admirals edition" for days on end, day and night, night and day. Well you all now how it goes. Thus the support group.[:D][:D][:D]

No, no, no! The Gorn is only a test posed by the Metrons to see how humans react. Being forced to play WitP-AE endlessly is cruel and unusual punishment, especially for JFBs. The correct response is to surrender to the Gorn and beg for mercy. [;)]

I saw the thread stalled, but I'm sure the forumites are hungry for more "dolphins". By the way, Sophia's character did need a good set of lungs as she free dived for a living.
