WannaBe: <CIO> LOL. I remember those mems... <chancho> North by Norwest, totally agree, the audiences know that the plane scene was filmed earlier and played on a screen behind. It was still drama. Same thing with the Mt. Rushmore chase scene.

WannaBe: #8 vs #9 are suppose to be close games, but SLU just blew out UGA... Don't know how SLU qualifies as "Atlantic-10" conference, but along with VCU are definitely putting out notices to the tournament.

WannaBe: Future research project, how did Offenbach - Orpheus in the Underworld became "Can Can" and women kicking legs before the Radio City Hall Rocketts. An history that probably need some "Lookin Into"

WannaBe: ¡Olé! ¡Olé! this is what I see for "¡Olé! ¡Olé!" (game of the day Mar-13-2026) I also know this issue have been around for a while, and it's not that important, in IT term, it is a level 'C', cosmetic fix. But I just wish to report it again. Can CG.com unify this ...

WannaBe: You made a comment on Skyline chili on another forum, about a month ago. Today I came across this YT video: https://iq-dist-2.com/s/page/2y888-... My convenient/easy go to is Hormel (BEANLESS!!), I do Chili Mac or use them for Chili Omelets

WannaBe: <FSR> March 11 is his birthday, and usually PoD is chosen from the birth date of the player. So unless CG.com decides to change the algorithm on how PoD is decided. We will randomly get "undesired" player(s).

  WannaBe: New Idea for a thread... "Now I Feel Stupid/Silly"

I had no idea, that was Jamie Lee Curtis in "Everything Everywhere All at Once", when I first saw the movie.

Ugh....

  WannaBe: I'm sorry, but keep 'elite' elite... There is a reason you are the top, keep it there.

Unlike private schools, e.g. Stanford, USC on the west coast, or Yale, Haaaaavard, or Ivy League in the east, there're reason(s), why they are elite.

  WannaBe: Nice to see that one can still smoke on a space vessel, albeit one armed to the teeth that can blow up any planet in an eye-blink.

  WannaBe: I thought that name looked familiar at the end credit... Amanda Plummer.

And yes, she is the daughter of Christopher & Tammy Grimes. (One may remember her dad in Star Trek Undiscovered Country as the Shakespeare quoting Klingon)

Ah.... Star Trek family. Gotta love it.

  WannaBe: "Send someone down and look out the back window" LOL. That one killed me.

Maybe Shaw is not "so bad after all".

Like I posted earlier, he will take a bit of used to, but (I think) a good honourable captain.

(Now watch as the writers prove me wrong)

  WannaBe: "Bring the Whiskey", looks like she got sick of "Tequila" with what's-his-name at what's-its-place while playing the jukebox.

Also Wednesday Addams would love this line.

  WannaBe: So, we now have early hints/confirmation of another alien specie, and Riker is (now) acting like Shaw.

Interesting change of "Honour of Duty" and "What is gut feeling".

  WannaBe: As always, the credits are at the end of the episode, and this one was directed by Jonathan F. I know, it's a "lottery" or drawing system on who gets to direct which episode.

But man, it shows how good he is. Especially the final dismissal scene.

A+++

  WannaBe: I also lik'd how the end credits have some Easter Eggs on the screen, and then goes display the main participants, but then goes back to the traditional Star Trek Next Generation style of font and names on screen.

Can I now stop geekin' out until next week? 🖖🥰
