Valeris

I am going to stay home for most of June, then the last week I am going to camp. For the first week of July, I am going the the biannual Independence Day family reunion and then for the rest of July and half of August I am going to France.

Yay, Spock won! *just up and celebrates* Who gave that last vote that made Spock win? Whoever you are, I love you! LOL

At last! I did not know it was possible to hold one's breathe for so long! Just give twenty-one more minutes, my dear lungs.

Shame about your DVD player. I am blessed with two DVD players (one for the family on the TV and one on my laptop, though the one on my laptop breaks down halfway through the movie nine out of ten times) so I have not had to deal with this problem. Good luck in obtaining a copy. :P

Crossover ruled! Anything with the mirror universe is awesome and I loved this mirror universe. It is a fascinating look into what happened after Mirror, Mirror!

Mirror, Mirror... Trouble with Tribbles... Mirror, Mirror... Trouble with Tribbles... it is so hard! I ended up chosing Mirror, Mirror, though not by much.

That would be an excellent thread. If our past conversations in this, and other threads, are any indication, we will surely find a lot to talk about on the subject. I eagerly await the new topic.

I am actually most awake at night. Strange... maybe my planet goes through its night when Earth goes through its day.

What I meant was that it is difficult to find a race that does not have its conlicts. Like the examples that you provided, there are no races that are not somehow mind-controlled that actually all think alike and never have any power struggles. Klingons have more power conflicts than Romulans! Yet, people look at the Romulans and say that they are the ones whose overnment is corrupt and whose wealthy have it all while the poor have nothing, and everyone lives in fear of the Tal Shiar. What I was saying is that things are not like that everywhere on Romulus. And of course, on Kronos, several these very things are dominant. Also, naturally, Romulans do have their power struggles and their unfair systems. However, I do not remember the last time they had a civil war (besides that thing with the Remans) and everyone knows the last time the Klingons had a civil war. The Romulans know how to overcome their differences and work together, for the good of everyone. Other species, especially Klingons, simply put, do not.

Scrabble for me. I love vocab!

Jour de Bastille celebrations.

Aside from waiter races in downtown DC I've never heard of a city celebrating this. What do they do?

Bastille Day is France's independence day. I am usually in France at that time (July 14) so I celebrate it.

I promounce it like the "a" in "caught," just like I do potato.

I imagine both of us might have been confused. I do most of my posts either in the morning before school (which ends tomorrow, yes!) starts, when I am not yet awake or in the middle of the night, when I am also not really awake or in the commercials of DS9 when I am focused on the episode.

And of course, great minds do think alike.

To add to that, if the producers of Star Trek show their "nice" sides, it would actually add to the mystery, not take away from it. It adds dilema for the UFP, because they cannot ignore this "nice" side and go on battling them like whatever. And how much scarier is a multi-sided enemy? It is easy if they are outright bad, then bring in something good and it scares everyone. They wonder if it is a trick, if they are genuine, should they offer an alliance, should they blow them up? I actually think it would impriove the series.

I realize that and I am glad you did. (That way I do not have. J/K ) They might just play a large part in the future of the Empire. I hope not, but who knows. It is just good that the Romulan government is back in Romulan hands.

I believe you misunderstand me. What I meant was that it is hard to find a race that is not disunified in places. Of course, there are races like the Borg, but that does not really count, as they are forced to be like that. Your examples are perfect for my point. I apologize if I was unclear.

I really do not know anything about the Remans. I am merely speaking from what I have seen. Truthfully, I really could not care less about the Remans. I was more interested in the main Romulan thing.

I am not severely allergic to anything. I am, however, allergic to (are you ready?) fireworks. It is true; I need an inhaler before I go to any Independence Day or Jour de Bastille celebrations. I go to both every summer so...

Thank you, Welfconfed, that was nice! Hmmm, clothes pins... that idea does have its merits. I wonder what people would say if I walked around like that... well, not school, because it has two days left, but maybe at camp...

You know, Argelian, when I was watching the Lord of the Rings trilogy, I noticed that they did not do the elf ears nearly as well as Star Trek did the Vulcan and Romulan ears. Maybe if I dyed my hair black... but wait, some of the elves did have black hair. Does anyone know where they sell Romulan uniforms?

Since people are doing potato polls, I thought I would make one of my own! I pronounce the "a" like in "call." Blame TSonofvulcan; he got me started. LOL, just kidding, T'Son! :blink:

I liked When the Bough Breaks. Good Wes-centered episode. :blink:

I liked Move Along Home. That was funny! I like any episode where Quark gets in really big trouble, even if it is only for a time.

LAY'S!!!!!!!!

Sour cream and onion, salt and vinegar, or BBQ.

I like sweet potatoes with marshmellows.
