It was still done after Chris Squire died, which was an insult. Some members of the band considered not showing up due to that.

There’s supposedly an animus against prog-rock groups (among others like metal); there have been only four admitted to the Hall in its existance: Pink Floyd, Genesis, Rush, and Yes, with Peter Gabriel in as a solo musician. While the Moodies influence might have abated over the years, in a fair and just world they…

Weird Al would have to be nominated, which will not go well with the RnRHoF board.

One looked like the Ocampa homeworld, another - referenced as an Andorian planet - seemed to have an asteroid deflector from “This Side Of Paradise”. Couldn’t be Andoria itself, since there was no snow and ice.

You could have prepaid for it at a rate of just over eight bucks a month ($100/year). A buck more than I pay for a Moe’s burrito on Mondays, plus tip.

After seeing the first three episodes (thanks to my pal Torrence) the first two eps seem written to be a money-suck. What Discovery has done in three episodes was done in two with the DS9 pilot (my favorite so far). It does make me wonder how extended other plot lines will be.

That means you haven’t seen “Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges”, a DS9 episode, which seems to go to the heart of everything that Discovery is about. And yes, it involves Section 31.

What about “The Prisoner of Benda” and “Lrrreconcilable Ndndifferences”? Those, along with “The Late Philip J. Fry”, and solid gold.

Yeah, that was my thought - only one? I’ve been playing bass along with a bunch of his stuff today (when I should be working at home) and getting into songs like “You Wreck Me”, “Don’t Do Me Like That”, and “Built To Last”. And that’s the ones I know how to play.

Your best singing with a friend is to “Yer So Bad”. For most of us, it’s downhill from here.

Mine watches BBC America. I think this Halloween he wants to go as either a Klingon or the Doctor.

My band does three of his songs - “Breakdown”, “Mary Jane’s Last Dance”, and “The Waiting”. After playing them I’d always have a big smile on my face.

For guitar players and song writers, Tom Petty probably ranks right up there with Buddy Holly for songs that were easy to learn but sounded more complete than 99% of the over-produced music that’s out there now. The real reason for all of that we can take from “Into The Great Wide Open” when he sings “The papers said…

There’s a southern accent, where I come from
The young ‘uns call it country
The yankees call it dumb

I’ll admit I sent in a spec script for Voyager, got to pitch ideas over the phone three times, and got shot down each time.

For a show about technology and the development of personal computing, this is one of the more human shows I’ve ever seen. It goes slow and curtails itself when other shows would go for the bombastic, and it has such control over its events that they seem more true to life than they way these events are portrayed on…

He’s, what - leaving on a jet plane? Don’t know if he’ll be back again?

Some other magazine’s satire of Playboy had a too on-the-nose Shel Silverstein poem, of which I can remember the last few lines:

Yeah, all the Song of Solomon is missing is the bawm-wamma-whah-whah soundtrack.

Not just a rich businessman, but the guy who owns Hostess, the prepackaged cake manufacturer.
