If you guys get a chance to see The Greatest Generation live while they are touring and covering First Contact, I strongly recommend it. Adam and Ben are such babyfaces, and you can get some frigging sweet (if entirely pointless) coins*.





I should've asked if any goons went to tonight's Chicago showing.

* Plus, if you bought the Fancy Edition of TES Oblivion back in the day, you'd have two coins related to things Patrick Stewart was in.

I got that US$10/AU$20 model, it's tiny and adorable.




Sadly it would appear my camera flash is broken so photo quality is poo poo.

There's like a 75% chance that at some point I'll give in, order the other five, and make a traditional Enterprise Display Wall.

Luckily, Discovery will fail hard on All Access. I really do hope it's actually a watershed moment for networks to realize that balkanized premium streaming services are a bad idea

How long would it take to get a heatstroke at 131 degrees fahrenheit? I'm guessing a lot less time than to walk to a mountain on the horizon.

There's a S1 episode where takes a series of tests as an entrance exam to SA, but he doesn't get in. "Coming of Age"

Oh, and I guess in "Ménage a Troi" he wrote and passed the written exam on the Enterprise and was supposed to go to Earth for the oral part but he missed the connection to the ship that would have taken him there, so they said "better luck next year".

She looks a little like Sue Galloway, one of the recurring extras in the 30 rock writers room, but that's not her.

Probably not. Memory Alpha, naturally, had an entry for her character (Ensign Tess Allenby). According to the article, she was played by an actress named Mary Kohnert, and the last thing IMDb has on record of her is her TNG appearances.

Ah, God bless the obsessive record-keeping nerds of this fandom.
