Their Love Will Live Long And Prosper

(Some friends from out of town are visiting and telling us about how their trip in went.)

Wife: “We had just enough gas to get here. I could tell that much. We were trying to figure out ways to conserve the gas. [Husband] said ‘Is there anything we don’t need, that we can turn off?’ So I turned down the heat as much as I could without fogging up the windows.”

Husband: “That’s what they do on the Enterprise when they need to conserve energy. They turn off all unnecessary functions.”

Wife: “That’s the nerdiest thing you’ve ever said to me.”

Husband: “It worked, didn’t it?”
