Something I learned today
Starship: A hole in space you poor money into.

Yikes
Hey Katelyn, maybe you should take up wrestling after all. A 14 year old girl destroyed an ATM machine in the Ukraine after it ate her card. I feel you pain. She says she took a boxing class and "must have learned a few things."

Star Trek The Next Generation
I'm watching an episode of TNG called "Chain of Command (2)". Season 6 Episode 11.  It is the episode where Picard is tortured by a Kardasian. The Kardasian shows four lights behind him and asks Picard, "How many lights do you see?" Picard answers "Four." Picard is then exposed to great pain. The Kardasian says "There are five lights." The idea here is to break Picard's spirit. I've always considered Patrick Stewart a good actor. He is a bit strange in interviews. This episode, however, is very well done. Stewart really belts it out. You feel he is broken, then at the last moment, the fire appears back in his eyes. The best scene is the very last scene of the show. Picard, back in command of the Enterprise, sits in his ready room with Counselor Troi. He says, at the very last, he believed there were five lights. This episode is better than Star Trek fans deserve.
