The Hall of Fire

yov, I think you are being way too literal. And I think you kinda know it.

There is a not-too-impossible-to-believe train of thought that Trump actually WANTS to lose. That he was primarily attracted to the *idea* of running for President and the attention it gave him. And now that things have become real, it's just too much work for him to contemplate. I sort of half-beli...

Well, then, I guess that settles things.

You theorize that white people don’t fear Trump because they don’t interpret his remarks as a threat to themselves, i.e., they can afford not to fear him. That’s a perfectly valid theory, but please state it as your own idea, not as the rationale behind my feelings. You are not entitled to speak fo...

My conclusion is that the above sounds like a cop-out if I ever heard one.

Way to suck the joy out of Star Trek, Maria.

Besides, there was a Next Gen episode that explained all that.

Really? Why?

The only reason he has a chance at all is because he's running against Hillary. If the Democrats had nominated someone who knew the definition of the word "ethical" he wouldn't stand a chance. I'm not so sure that is true. The GOP created Trump and (IMHO) they deserve what they have wroug...

Oh, I'm sure he can. Just wait.

Wow, Dave, what a fantastic review! I am determined to see Hamilton at some point during the next year. My huge regret is that I HAD the opportunity to see it in NY a couple of years ago (yes, with Miranda) when it was in previews...but it wasn't quite on my radar yet and so (alas and alack) I passe...

Good article, Alatar and I agree. "Star Trek" was always about the characters and their relationships with each other, plus it had great stories. Stories that made you think. I hope the new series takes heed!

Trump apparently thinks very highly of the Enquirer...and also seems to have some connections to the paper. (Of course, he seems to have connections everywhere, so whatever.)

Did you catch the shout-out to him in the beginning? When they find the bottle in "Chekov's locker" and clink the empty glass? I'm sure that was added as a tribute.

Huh...I had read the original and I didn't see any major differences here. The tiny font was enlarged easily enough, I thought. Anyway, as Alatar says, it is powerful stuff. Gotta love Neil Gaiman!

Hahahahahahaa!

I LOVED the new Trek movie. Really, really loved it.

You think it's funny? You think it's funny that a dictator who has used America as a scarecrow to justify everything from suppressing free speech to outright eliminating opposition in his own country may have a say in who our next President is? Er, no. I said I think the media reaction is uproariou...

Appaently Melania Trump never graduated from college (as is stated in her "official" bio and on her website.) In addition, the college she says she graduated from doesn't exist.
