OT Things to ponder

[Mikawa]

Just happened to stumble across the movie enemy of mine the other day. For its time, a good movie but still a good watch today. Enjoyed it.

Are Gorn related to Drac’s?

Burning question.

[geofflambert]

No, and we're all better actors than Dennis Quaid. The only movie I can think of where he got the job done was "The Right Stuff". His brother Randy is awesome, though.

[geofflambert]

Louis Gossett Jr. is fine. And he put on all that weight to play pregnant!

Well, the issue is the intrusion of politics into science and academia, which Western nations are not entirely free from ... [:(]

Our eight year mission (if we feel like stopping), to explore a strange new world. To boldly go where no man has gone before!

With the Space Force, there are only FIVE branches of the US Military. The Marines are not a separate branch, they are part of the US Navy. In fact, all of the US Marines are US Naval Infantry since they are all Infantry first.

That logo says Department of the Air Force, which implies it's like the USMC relationship to the Department of the Navy. No??

Probably so. They must have some good stuff to go higher than Cloud 9!

I'll go, but it's on the house this time.

You went ON the house? Will the rain or snow wash it down or is someone going to have to get into a HazMat suit to remove it?

Gorn, you can go ON the house but I prefer going IN the house. Especially in bad weather.
This applies to airplanes and spaceships, too.

Why do some people cook hamburger patties so long that they use them to play a game on ice?
