Star Trek action figures: Why do you only buy two of everything?

[dieastra]

I think Bones is a bit fed up with me. It's not my fault. There are also white and red disko chairs available but they are sold out so I only was able to get the blue and green one.

Poor Bones! No chair, no ice cream, no musical instruments... :P

Oh poor Bones, love the furniture.

Poor Bones, he must feel like a third wheel. He looks crossed, better be careful ;)

Hahaha, he it right! Not only you ignore his CMO rank but he has to watch his companions lounging in luxury. " Jim, I am a doctor, not a pillar!"

"Jim, I am a doctor, not a pillar!"

That's the best of the "I'm a doctor, not a..." jokes I received for this one! Awesome! Especially funny, you know, as in the German version he is called Pille.

I love the new chairs! For a long time I had wanted to get some. A friend had them. They look very futuristic!

Someone said that Bones is the oldest. So I may do a second part with Jim getting up and offering the elderly person his seat. He'll grumble even more then LOL

He always looks like that, so it is really hard to tell with him LOL

Someone suggested I should buy something special just for him. I'll have to think about that.

I love my new chairs! I should try them with the Doctor(s) as well.

Yeah, poor guy. I love the new chairs as well!

Actually, I could have offered him an instrument. There are still the bagpipes, the electric guitar and the trumpet. But the way he was looking, I didn't dare LOL

Haha, well, so this was an unintentional pun on my side:-).
Actually my first meeting with ST TOS series was on ORF1 because this was the only "western" channel we were able to watch here in the south. But unfortunately my German is onůy based on 3 years at primary school and watching Austrian TV. Now I use English, it would be very embarrassing for me to try and a real disaster.

He should totally be made to play the bagpipes! It just seems fitting somehow. (Maybe they were a present from Scotty.)

Good idea.

Your disco chairs are perfect for Kirk and Spock, they match their shirts!

Poor Bones! LOL

Yeah, at first I did not want to get them, as I would have preferred other colors, but once I realized this it was a must buy!
I'd love to have the red one as well, for Scotty or Uhura, but I would have not the space for a third anyway, they are huge!

[dieastra.livejournal.com]

I am indeed saving the bagpipes for when Scotty arrives. Can't play all my asses at once ;) I need to have some surprises left.
I got them in Glasgow, it is a fridge magnet and even makes music.

[dieastra.livejournal.com]

Yeah, poor guy but those chairs are HUGE! I wouldn't be able to fit a third one into my shelf.

But I just bought something else which also only came in two... the story continues ;)

Who knows, more might come back to you than you think. It's been years since I learnt Russian in school and I have forgotten almost all of it - as you say, it is only English these days. Still, sometimes when my co-worker is on the phone, I catch a word and a phrase and realize I understood that. I could not speak it, but hearing it I do at least understand a little.

You could also try to search if there are German lessons on TV. They usually are also much simpler and better to understand. Here there is all kind of school TV. My brother tries to learn Italian with it ;)

You are right about languages. My English friend invited me to Duolingo, a free programme for learning languages online. I was doing Russian for more than two months every day and hey! I could recollect so many words, phrases and grammar! As soon as winter comes, I am going to start German there...it will be painful, I know, but it is worth trying:-).
