the red shirts people always croak.. When they did a remake a few years ago - with Spock and Kirk and those guys, all played by younger actors, of course, there was a scene where, I think, 3 people went down to the planet.. and an unknown guy was wearing a red shirt and I told my wife, "that dude is gonna croak" and sure enough, he did.. Its definitely a red shirt thing, but keep in mind, they always put unknown people in the red shirts.. the expendables lol...
Friendship is like peeing your pants.. Everybody can see it, but only you can feel the warmth..
