   Once again, fans of the Star Trek franchise will have to wait through the   
   summer for the resolution of an evil cliff hanger. All 17 fans of   
   Enterprise sat screaming at their TVs when the dreaded "To Be Continued"   
   appeared at the end of the season finale. We thought some torture for the   
   writing staff would be appropriate.   
      
      
   Ways to Torture the "Star Trek: Enterprise" Writers   
      
      
   10> Tell them they need to write episodes for guest stars Charro, Dr. Ruth   
   and Carrot Top.   
      
    9> Withhold their bananas and take away their tire-on-a-rope swing.   
      
    8> Let *them* hang over that damn cliff for an entire summer... a real   
   cliff.   
      
    7> Borrowing from the technology of "Total Recall," they have to live   
   through everything they've ever written.   
      
    6> William Shatner and Barney the Dinosaur are hired for script read-back.   
      
    5> In a room with an infinite number of monkeys sitting at an infinite   
   number of typewriters, they're each handed a single short-handled   
   pooper-scooper.   
      
    4> Threaten them with a lack of sexual gratification. Oh, wait, that's   
   probably redundant.   
      
    3> "Guys, here are the Happy Meal toys. We need six consecutive new   
   episodes and no redshirts."   
      
    2> Play Yoko Ono at full volume until either their eardrums burst or they   
   tell us what happens next.   
      
    and the Number 1 Way to Torture the "Star Trek: Enterprise" Writers...   
      
    1> Stuff live Tribbles up their Jefferies Tubes, then send them into a   
   room full of Klingons.
