Sheridan's position changes in Season 5, so presumably someone would have had to replace Sinclair then - so maybe Sheridan in Season 5 instead of Season 2.

I really miss the jub jub song, cheesy as it was. Does anyone know where you can get  a copy of the Star Wars Trilogy before it was fucked over?

Sheridan and Delenn are more epic characters - they're the ones that are going to save the world, and they rise to the challenge.  Garibaldi is a normal guy who gets caught up in epic events, and gets trashed as a result.

TNG hit  a sweet spot. It was the first Trek series since TOS ended, with an occasional movie to fuel people's interest.

Plastic bottles of diet coke will explode violently if left in a garage in winter in Canada.

I have found that, on average, East Asian undergrads tend to be younger socially than their North American peers.  They're studious and very hard working, but an adolescence spent cramming for entrance exams under parental supervision does make a difference when it comes to independence and initiative.

I still call it frozen yoghurt….

I think the problem is not that some people like this sort of thing - there's nothing sexual no matter how depraved or bizarre it's generally regarded as that someone isn't turned on by.

Yeah, because we  all know how beautiful the typical penis and testicles are.
