Mr Nifty and I had no end of ideas - some of them just didn't it on the cards, and some were funny in themselves (well, we thought so!) but didn't really work on greeting cards.
I mean - would you send a card saying "We come in peace, shoot to kill"???

Nifty, what a great way to expand your line! Unfortunately, I'm not good with one-liners. Looking forward to seeing what you get ;)

To Boldy Go Where No Meercat Has Gone Before.
I forgot to say that my favourite card is the kissing one. Although they are all brilliant.
We should solve this knitty problem
Does anyone remember the Prime Directive?
haha...these are great and a wonderful way to expand the meerkats (into space, so to speak).
My brain is fogged with migraine meds at the moment, but I'm sure enjoying seeing some of the captions.
Think you're having a bad day?
Look what happened in the first Transporter experiments!
First Transporter Experiments Revealed!
"Why Do I Have To Wear The Red Shirt?"
With a name like Number One it's no wonder he won't leave the ship!
Caption: Make It - Sew!
Caption: "Meerkat - So?"
Tell me Gordi, exactly where did you park the Enterprise?
LMAO! "He's thread, Jim" !!!! genius! I want that card!!!
I don't know if any of the meerket characters in the card are female or not as I'm not familiar with those names ... but I googled 'great startrek quotes' and
Worf: "I am a graduate of Starfleet Academy; I know many things."
Yay!!! Wonderful Meerkat cards!!
How glorious!
I don't have any suggstions but some of the ones posted are hilarious!
My fave is also "He's thread, Jim" I Would buy that card.
I'm Threading my way back to you Babe!

Its wool,Jim but not as we know it!
I've just been reminded that not everyone knows the characters - so from left to right we have worf, captain picard and geordi - all of whom are very male.
The orange is fine but those chains are soooo 80's! x
Oops, I forgot to mention which card I liked best. It has to be the 'to boldly kiss' one. It's great! x
Caption: Knit me up, Nifty
Caption: We can't do it captain! We don't have enough yarn!
To Boldly Go Where No Yarn Has Gone Before

Let's tie up the loose ends before we beam up, Gentlemen!

Oh, and I tweeted my fave card this morning--"To Boldly Kiss." <3
"I think she needs to knit us a bigger Enterprise"
"Beware of UFO's!(unfinished objects)"
Here is my second because I am following the blog.

Hey, I thought WE were going to get the pointy ears.
Ignore her - she's having a 'deep space 9' episode

Fave card is the baboon one.
Love caption comps - thanks.
" And how many Light years to the gallon does this get"
Congrats on your new car!
a card for a new car, not that many people send cars for that.
Sorry I can't think of a witty caption! Just wanted to say thanks for the Corsage and I've mentioned you in my latest blog! Live long and prosper!
Please, Captain, not in front of the Klingons.
I love love love these cards!! My fav is He's thread Jim.
Hope you had a good walk.

I didn't realise it was for just the one card so this won't act as an entry. However, I thought long and hard about it so decided I would still leave my comment.
For the card where McCoy is injecting Kirk
"This will make you live Long" McCoy
"And prosper" - Jim
"I'm only a doctor Jim" - McCoy
Tee hee
My fave is the "He's thread Jim"
Brilliant cards.
Caption; 'the sat-nav said earth was here'
I also forgot to give my favourite card - He's thread Jim does it for me, too :-)
One last one
"Must've been quite a party, where are our trousers?"
Oh I can't help it,
"The Transporter forgot our kilts"
"We come in peace, shoot to kill"
"Live Long And Prosper..You have lived long."
