In all the years of Star Trek reruns, I’ve only seen that one once. I’m going through DS9 now.

Wow. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Rover’s vicious face before. He’s scary.

Rover knows what he’s talking about. Just wait until they all get into the storage bins.

Any significance to stardate 66872.1? That is about 23 years later than the Trouble With Tribbles episode (Stardate 4523.3 is the date of the Captain’s first log).

Back in the day I got a Tribble squeaky toy. Much like a fuzzy ball with a squeaker and eyes. Cute. I am careful not to let my dogs near it or it will be disemboweled.

Yes, that one and “Mirror, Mirror” are to this day my favorite Star Trek episodes. Loved, still love, that show in its original run, beats all the ones today even, IMHO!

I guess that nails down the strip’s era; not late ’50’s or early ’60’s after all.

I didn’t realize it, but this marks the 50th anniversary of Star Trek.
