Little does anyone know, but back in the day (before Star Trek), Aunt Marg, was captain of the Starship Enterprise, and everyone's favourite saying on the ship was, "aye-aye, cap'n"!
We still say that to our neighbour when he returns from the harbour lol

I saw aye-ayes on a nature documentary.
Hadn't the slightest idea they existed until Ruthanne, posted this WOTD.
They look as though they could be a handful, like a misbehaving toddler! LOL!
I can't count the number of times I was awoken in the wee hours of the morning with a hand gently prodding and shaking me... "mommy, mommy", and when I'd awake, all I could see was a hand on me, like an Aye-Aye hand, but as soon as I'd come to, I would recognize the hand as being the hand of one of my kids who was needing me.
