After contracting epileptic typewriteritis, half japanese finds it difficult

hungrier and hungrier, the growling of her stomach gets louder and louder.
Will the growling of her stomach announce her presence to passers by??? Will

ups will the Admiral make her do???? Followed by how many sit-ups???? Will he

Captain half japanese realizes that she forgot to mention that she was not
only locked up in a room, starved and bored out of her skull, but also that
the room was kept at sub freezing temperatures. Will it be the chattering of
half japanese's teeth and not the grumbling of her stomach that alerts others
to her presence???? Will her hands turn blue and get so frozen that half
japanese won't be able to type???? Is that what the Admiral wanted all

On the newest episode of Star Trek:The Crouton Generation:

As half japanese contemplates her predicament, she gets more and more
confused. Is this simply because she is so completely unused to thinking??? Or
perhaps because of her lack of food??? NO no no, nothing like that. She is
baffled because she doesn't think the Admiral woule be that cruel to her, even
if her episodes do cause misery for many of the Croutons. Perhaps it wasn't
really the Admiral but...
The door to the room opens, someone walks in looking like the Admiral, but
half japanese notices that it's only a mask. Who is wearing the mask??? Is
this a practical joke played by a member of the crew of the _Subaru_???? Or is
it, yes, it must be, it's an attack by the Hidden Valley ranch Empire and a
gun is being pointed at hj as she types!!!! Will anyone come to her rescue or

                            THE LUSER GENERATION

In her nightmares, (no doubt caused by hj's many episodes about the room full
of computers) Counselor Eliana finds herself locked in a room, also full of
computers, where she is forced to hand out disk after disk to luser after 
luser.  All the lusers have some sort of complaint which they expect her to
remedy, and being the patient sort of Counselor she is, she tries to listen
to each and every one of them, though deep down all she wants to do is scream
and close the lab and toss them all out on the streets.  Especially when they
ask, "Do you have a stapler?"  Suddenly thousands of giggling pre-freshmen 
swarm through the lab, and force her to count all the computers there.  As 
she counts, the room grows larger and larger and larger, and there
are more and more computers.  She tries and tries to wake up, but all she can
do is count--5,345.78832; 5,345.78833...
AAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
 
Will she ever wake up?  Or will she realize that her idyllic life aboard the
Melbourne was all a dream and this room is all there is to real life?  Find
out on the next exciting episode as Eliana counts on survival!!

As Eliana continues to count those computers, she discovers that one of the 
giggly pre-freshmen is actually a Hidden Valley Rancher in disguise, who has
come to inject Eliana with a strain of the dreaded hiccup virus.  Now, Eliana
forgets to count those computers, but is running around in search of a 
water fountain.  But, strangely enough, there IS NO WATER HERE!!  The HVR 
replaced the H20 with 03X (merely a more violent strain of the dreaded hiccup
virus!).  The giggling freshmen clamour round Eliana and drag her back to the
computers.  "COUNT" they cry, "COUNT COUNT COUNT!"

Captain Half Japanese (You see?  I capitalized your name.  So there, nyeaah!)
is becoming a  pain in the  writing  episodes about her
 environmental controls in her  quarters.  For crimony sakes,
will someone PLEASE shut off her oxygen supply and let her asphyxiate in
peace?  Anyone??!!!!  Perhaps she'll just freeze to death.  (Hah!  that would
be giving us the cold shoulder!)  Perhaps she'll die from a shear lack of
anything to do.  (After all that typing, she must be very key-bored!)  Or,
she could die of loneliness from being the only person who ever posts any
episodes any more.  (What you might call a severe case of writer's bloc!)
Find out on the next  episode of "Star Trek:  The Punster Generation"!

(Nothing personal meant by this.  I'm bored with junk and decided to try
stirring up the anthill a bit!)

is using her to write so many episodes that the Croutons go totally insane
which would place the Hidden Valley Ranch empire in the perfect position for

                   "Zombie Process"

In a desparate attempt to keep an 420 CPU-minute process alive,
_Croutonprize_ computer experts kill off an unneeded child process.
Unfortunately, that process had a child, now freed from the regular
restraints of command heirarchy by the death of its parent.  The
zombie process stalks the system, using no cycles at all, but
scaring many otherwise healthy, normal processes to hangup signals.
Will Zortylwankoid be called in to dislodge the undead process?
Will all normal computer functions on the _Croutonprize_ shut down?
Will the creator of the process write a teaser episode based on
his experiences?

[Camera flashes to the face of Zortylwankoid, his face bathed in
 the light from the monitor in the foreground.

  Zortyl:  "kill -9 (type type type).  That's the best we've got."

  His finger touches down on the keyboard once, presumably on the
  CR / RETURN / ENTER / <-/ key.  His facial expression changes
  ever so slightly.

paralyzed when the replicators can only prduce one crouton at a time?  ("Now,
