I was just worried Scrabble was, um, advanced backgammon or something.

I thought I knew what both of these things were, but now I'm totally confused :) Which is no different than normal, so that's fine :)

Does it mean that I'm a SF geek that I read that and thought "Jean-Luc Picard"?

LOL! Hey, did you notice Picard was interviewed by the 9-11 Commission the other day? :)

Hmm, did he recommend a diplomatic solution?

My Spanish is really spotty. Pretty poor, really. But the funny part is that the drunker I got in bars in Cabo, or PV... after awhile I'd start lapsing into French instead of spanish... The looks from the bartenders was priceless...

ROFL! What do you call that, "Sprench"? :)

Hey now. Picard might have been a cheese eating surrender monkey, but he wouldn't tolerate the shenanigans this commission has pulled.

At least he was a wimp with integrity.

I think he did, but Spock raised an eyebrow and said it was illogical, and then McCoy started yelling, "D*mnit, I'm a doctor, not a diplomat! Blast your green-blooded, inhuman diplomacy! I say we set phasers on kill and be done with these terrorists once and for all!" Then the audience started clapping, prompting Commissioner Kean to tell them to stop or else he'd ask for a new UN resolution, which was a sufficiently scary thought to silence even McCoy. Meanwhile Spock snuck up behind Ben-Veniste and gave him a Vulcan nerve pinch, which was pretty cool.
