  1. 1. "The Blob" scared me to death when I was a kid.

    2. "There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy." (excuse the slight misquote)

    3. The ocean is one of the last great frontiers on an earth that constantly surprises us.

    4. I wouldn't touch that thing with a 100 foot pole!


  2. Ok, I used to love wrestling. I got into it sideways, thanks to my baby brother. But the guys I love are all gone, except for the Undertaker, and he's so different.

     

    WWF lost me when they got really, really big. It lost a lot of personality, IMO, when they tried too hard to make the personalities huge.

     

    I miss Macho Man, Piper, The Legion of Doom, The Bushwackers, Mr. Perfect (a personal fave), Marty Jannetty (another fave), The Undertaker before he went all occult-y, The Ultimate Warrior, The Million Dollar Man, and on and on. (I will never miss Hogan.) But they're brought on now only in has-been ways. ;)

     

    Yeah, McMahon's really missed the boat lately. Looks like it's up to some indie to come kick him in the teeth, the way he did when he started!


  3. He has the same tone, yes, but he still changes his voice.

     

    ANYWAY - the one I always wondered about is a simple law of physics...Odo can't change his mass; he can just rearrange it. If he weighs 200 lbs as a "man," then when he's a datapadd, he should still weigh 200 lbs.

     

    Chalk it up to "but he's good television" and leave it at that.


  4. Anyone who's read the novel by Andy Robinson about Garak, does it give the reason he was exiled from Cardassia? Or his relationship to Mela? PM me please, if you would. I don't have the money for the book right now!

     

    Thank you, thank you!


  5. I prefer "Devil." But better story? I still vote for "Devil." It was about the future and the saving of a species, and in the end, about two species getting along in the same space.


  6. I take issue with one of those especially. Most members of the "religious right" I know don't believe in evolution, but agree that dinosaurs exist/ed. Contrary to some people's opinion, religious people aren't inherently stupid, or uneducated in the sciences.


  7. I saw Wallace Shawn once; only a glimpse. But I've enjoyed him in everything I've ever seen him in, from The Cosby Show to DS9.

     

    It's the only time I had ever seen a Star Trek actor until this last weekend when Kirstie Alley walked into the store where I worked. I forgot all about Saavik until after she left. Patrick Stewart was in a few years ago. Not bad for a store in a poor-ish county in Maine.

     

    If it had been almost any ST except Alley, I might not have been able to keep myself from humiliating myself and asking for an autograph!


  8. Ooo, Ooo, Ooo, Mr. Kottah!

     

    Oh, wrong show...lol

     

    Quark (I think): "What kind of fool are you?"

    Odo: "My own special variety."

     

    Garak: "My dear doctor, they were all true."

    Bashir: "Even the lies?"

    Garak: "Especially the lies."

     

    Kira: "This really pleases you, doesn't it, Dukat?" (Ziyal staying on the station - he will have to return.)

    Dukat: "Major, it gives me reason to live."

     

    Richard Kiley (character?) "Let there be light!"

     

    There are others, but can't list them all on one post! :)


  9. I'm with Ezri. I'm not going to BEGIN to tell you what I've gotten. But, in my defense, I haven't seen probably a full third of the episodes. AUGH! lol. But it fuels my desire to see them! (Like it wasn't fueled enough already.)


  10. Both Tribbles episodes are at the top of my favorites list.

     

    Some one told me that when when they were filming "Trials", Bashir was having trouble flipping open his communicator.  A hand reached out from behind the set, taking it from him and proceeded to open it with that classic wrist flip. A voice in a thick Scottish accent said, "This is how is how you do it, Laddie".  Needless to say it broke up the entire cast.

     

    Does anyone know if this is true?

    The way I heard it is that it was Walter Koenig who showed him how to open it. Either way, how cool!
