Yup - seems too easy, but I’ll say beam me up!

Solved and confirmed. I also do not fully appreciate the intent of the title. I look forward to learning more in the upcoming year. Beam me up; but please use the alpha waves. I think I'm allergic to the microwaves.

You were pacing yourself. The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese...

Al, that is sick, sick, sick. I love it!

Speaking of the second mouse getting the cheese, I was sitting at the pool with my bulldog, Yogi, today. A bird that had a smaller dead bird in it’s mouth flew near the pool and Yogi ran after it. The bird must have panicked and it dropped the dead bird (which had its’ head bitten off) and Yogi grabbed it. I had to chase him for about five minutes to get him to drop the decapitated bird so I could get rid of it before he tried to eat it.

Mmmm, GOUDA! Oh, and of course I am not on the BORAD, or the BORAT, or the 20 Mule Team BORAX but the BOARD. In my excitement I appear to have transposed a letter.

So if BORAD is a transposed letter, is
a CIS posed letter?

Beamed up

Now that the deadline has passed, can someone explain what the "Hidden Power" title has to do with the meta? (joon's writeup on Crossword Fiend doesn't address it.)

I sort of guessed that a capital is like the seat of Power in a country and Hidden is obvious. Any other interpretations?
