"Ohh! what's that blue thing? I've not seen one of those before.. I wonder if I can collect it?"
*WHOOSH*
"Holy s**t, what just happened? where the heck am I!?"
*check galaxy map*
"What the-!? a worm hole?"
*beep beep beep*

@ Cheese Redux - well spotted, that chap! We need people like you on the Wikipedia to trawl through the entries and pick up errors!!
Very funny, Scotty, now beam down my clothes...
Re: right on commmander? yeeehawww!
Hi there Star Gazer I agree entirely, I can't even pick up basic errors!
