Jay-Z took his name from a subway line.

+1 for obscure Python sketch quotes. Nicely done, folks. Stiff handshakes all around.

here's a question, which captain would most want to follow into battle? Picard could run the show like Eisenhower, but Sisko would be Patton.

THIS FAHR, NO FURTHUH!

100 years after TOS?
I never paid much attention to the stardates, or even bothered to figure out what they meant, but I thought TNG was 70 or so years after TOS.

man, speaking of clumsy series crossovers, the DS9 pilot had a doozy.

but in your heart you really want a Republican to lower taxes, brutalize criminals and RULE YOU LIKE A KING!

Stew-beef is always respectful with elected officials (respect the office, etc. etc.) - like his aggressive but not heated interview with Eric Cantor last week. With people he agrees with he takes a whiffle bat approach - hit them a little, but nothing that hurts.

a point in it's favor, however

yes, unfortunately I did sit through both "Move Along Home" and "Melora" - neither was offensively bad (MAH was just old fashioned Star Trek goofiness, Bashir gets some nice material in Melora), but they weren't worth the time. I did skip the Lwaxana Troi episode.

this seems like as good a place as any to ask - I'm a lapsed Trekkie who is going through DS9 at the moment (a few eps into season 3). What are the bad DS9 episodes? I mean, the real howlers that I should avoid at all costs.

Cyril Connelly?
