I have the original and Warp 2. I got tired of them pretty quickly, though. Not worth the money in my opinion.

It was tough, but I finally voted for Laura Bush.[just kidding....well, not really]
Actually I voted for K'Ehleyr. I really liked that actress even though I cannot summon her name at the moment. Apart from also playing a Vulcan and a Q, does anyone know if she's done anything else in or out of Star Trek....?
She's Suzie Plakson, who also played an Andorian in ENT. I'm a big fan of her's too. Here's her IMDB profile:
Her biggest role that I remember her from was "Joan" on Mad About You.

I won't go into my reasonings right now, but, to an extent, I actually agree with Hillary Clinton.
Someone call the underworld and ask if it's snowing.

Usually my favorite characters are the ones I feel are the strongest in plot, acting, and personality. IMO, the strongest female characters in Trek were Seven and Janeway. My top ten:
1- 7 of 9
2- Kathryn Janeway
3- Guinan
4- B'Elanna Torres
5- Colonel Kira
6- Kate Pulaski
7- Dr. Crusher
8- Counselor Troi
9- Lt. Uhura
10- Hoshi Sato

That guy has some serious problems with women.

Sorry, I only go for the occassional Trivia chat.

Voyager's "Muse".
I've always really liked this episode for some reason.
-
I've watched every episode this season and I'm really liking it. I think it's cool how some of the Trek actors have been getting in on it (Combs, Picardo...). It doesn't hold my attention every second, but the majority of the episodes have been very entertaining.
And you're right, don't upset baby Isabel; you might spontaneously combust or something.

The U.S.S EXCALIBUR is actually a ship already. Although not cannon, It has been of at least four different designs. That aside, the call numbers could not be NCC-1701, since those are the Enterprise's and each ship has it's own unique number.
This is a fantasy thread; people can have whatever name and registry they want. :wink2:
Besides, the most recent canon example of the Excalibur was the Ambassador-Class seen in "Redemption" (if I remember right).
I also really like the name Excalibur. I'd probably go with that, Excelsior, or USS Tinagra... or Cherokee...
Too many choices...

A sad day indeed. My sympathies to his friends and family.
Rest in peace, Mr. Scott.

I'm just using one that came with my laptop. It's called "prarie wind". Sounds dorky, but I think it looks pretty cool.
-
Agreed. :lol:
I usually use it to find out about Trek actors who I can't figure out where else I recognize them from. *scratches head*

The guy didn't just "get out of his car to see who had fired a bottle rocket at him."
One of the cars that the boys fired a bottle rocket at stopped in the intersection and the passenger, 22-year-old Tyrone Sherrod of Tacoma, got out and grabbed one of the boys, Garnet Wilis II.The second boy ran and Trooper Johnny Alexander said that's when the driver of the car, identified as 22-year-old Mario Haley, began chasing Garnet with the vehicle before jumping out to chase him on foot.
I understand their reactions, but chasing the other boy down with a car was a bit much. They already had the first kid. At that point, they should have called the police (assuming they should even have gotten out in the first place). Finding out who the second kid (the one who was killed) was would've been no trouble with the first in custody.
I'll emphasize, though, that I don't think the drivers should suffer stiff penalties. Their reactions were understandable even if the situation ended horribly.
-
That doesn't excuse the driver from his share of the responsibility.
-
Agreed. This is not a case of "kids being kids". This is a case of a kid not having proper discipline and supervision. A twelve yr old should know alot better than to shoot dangerous projectiles at moving cars. It's quite frankly an idiotic thing to do. He may be young, but I know of very few people that age who would consider that reasonable behavior. 9, maybe, but not 12.
In complete disagreement with Schram, I think everyone is to blame in some way. The kid for doing something he knew was wrong and dangerous, the parents for however they may have contributed (parents can't be there all the time but I have a hard time believing this was the first time he showed destructive tendencies), and the 22 yr old for letting his anger get the best of him.
The major fault lies with the driver. I realize he was very angry, as I would have been, and did not mean for this to happen, but he should have called the police rather than chase the kid with his car. That's far from reasonable behavior as well. I feel sorry for everyone involved, but the driver does deserve to be held accountable :lol: .
No matter who was at fault, this was a tragedy. I know the parents must be grieving very much.
LotB- Add me to that list. I hung out with normal kids and had fun, but I would never have even considered an idiotic stunt like this.
