Cardassian is my first choice. Although, Benzite is a close second.

Pepsi.

The Benzites were one of the species I always wanted to see more fully developed in the Star Trek Universe.

I just love Marina's voice!! It seems that years after the series ended, both Marina and Brent remain wildly popular with trekkers(and trekkies) the world over.

Not too uncommon. In many places animal cruelty is a misdemeanor. I just hope the dog recovers without complications.

There are two eps that were so bad imo that I can't decide which is worst. They are "Fury" and "Dreadnought".

David R. George III

TheKryptonian

Adm.RegBarclay

Sometimes I watch. It depends on which sport is being televised and at what time of day or night.

...and who says theres not a cop around when you need one??

RIP Isaac Hayes.

I count the original The Day the Earth Stood Still as one of my all time fave sci fi films. I plan on seeing this remake. From the looks of it, it will be a good one.

White tea.

Nothing's impossible in Hollywood. I would like to see his character return.

Return of the Archons was really rated one of the bottom eps??? That ep is in my top five!

Nice collection of some of the funnier scenes from TOS.

I doubt I will purchase them. I am happy with the originals I already own on dvd.

I think his motives were right - to keep as many people alive as possible. His methods, however were.... questionable to say the least. Yet, many people went along with him, he couldn't have carried out his policies alone. Imo, he was wrong to condemn a segment of the population to death, but I can understand where he would've thought he was doing some good.

My fave author is David R. George III. Up until the Crucible trilogy, I didn't have a fave,but that soon changed.

This news comes as a complete shock. My prayers and thoughts are with his family at this trying time.

Lo hecho bien Celsa Aleman!!!

Tea.

I voted yes. Personally, I don't think there's anything wrong with collecting the items and having a separate area for them in the house,but to display them everywhere seems a bit weird imo. It all comes down to finding someone that can accept a person for who they are.
