But I'll probably visit BK to purchase extras. Tomas, I was given a set of the glasses and toys from a representative of the promotional firm handling the BK campaign.

During my advance scouting of the theater, I noticed that there's a Star Trek combo with a Star Trek cup and Star Trek popcorn bucket and a Kit-Kat bar for $11.49 CDN. I'm going to resist purchasing this. Resistance is NOT futile! Drew, God has a sick sense of humor.

Yes, I’ll admit I have too much Star Trek stuff." Come on Reed, the time you decide to cut back on your Star Trek collecting is the single biggest moment for Star Trek since the original series premiered? That strikes me a little bit odd. “I declined the gracious offer of your fellow American collector because I really am trying to cutback on my collecting.

Classic Reed. Didn't you have a connection here in the US who could send you stuff not available in Canada? Or was that a cop? I forget. Do you ever think to you'll say to yourself "I think I have enough Star Trek stuff."? BTW, how much longer do you think you will survive on your savings?

I had no idea anyone actually went and did all that tangential promo stuff even though companies spend so much wasted time and money doing it. I think I'd just like a cheaper, healthier burger. Just Me. I don't eat fast food anyway. This is pretty funny.
