Today Was Kind Of A Good Day To Rob QuoteBy T'Bonz

Times must be tough on Qo'NoS as a man armed only with a small bat'leth robbed one store and tried to rob another.
As reported by TheDenverChannel.com, a man wearing a black mask threatened the clerk of a Colorado Springs 7-Eleven convenience store with a bat'leth and was able to escape with an undisclosed amount of money.
A half hour later, he tried the same stunt at another 7-Eleven, but the clerk of this store, obviously Romulan, refused to hand over the goods and the robber was forced to leave empty-handed.
The Klingon-wannabe remains at large. The clerks in both stores knew what a bat'leth was. They were unable to say whether the crescent-shaped yard-long weapon was made of metal or was merely a cheap knock-off.
Thanks to Bill Williams for the tip!

This guy is going to give all Trekkers a bad name. :laugh:
And what happened to people robbing stores with guns? lol
That is actually kinda funny in an odd sorta way. I doubt many people on Earth are actually very skilled with the Bat'leth.
LOL I'm sitting here wondering if he was the owner of the bat'leth originally. Surely a trekker wouldn't get involved in this sort of thing! Perhaps he had stolen the bat'leth previously?
What are things coming to?
Many songs will be sung of this day.
This man has no honor!
Ah the tales of great battle of the slurpee! It will be glorious!

I have to say that I haven't laughed that hard in days! Seriously, I checked the forum on my ipod this morning and started laughing so hard I woke up Amy. She and I both laughed for a good few minutes. Great line!
I may have to write a Klingon song called "Free Cheese and the Battle of Slurpee" :) thanks for the great laugh.
Glad to be of service! :)
Glory to you and your Hooooouuuussse! :klingon
LOL. He is soooo creepy when he does that. I blame the crazy eyes!
TNG had a 'Mad Eye' character long befor Harry Potter!
I just love the fact that both clerks 'knew what a bat'leth was'. It says something about the staff in these places!

Nah, I'm waiting for the bank job by 3 Ferengis with plasma whips. They are very under-used you know ;-)
Naw, the Ferengi would buy up a controlling share in the bank and get their money that way.
That's crazy!

Word. Why bother robbing the bank when they can control it?
