Which science fiction character are you?
Jean-Luc Picard
An accomplished diplomat who can virtually do no wrong, you sometimes know it is best to rely on the council of others while holding the reins.
There are some words which I have known since I was a schoolboy. “With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censored, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.” These words were uttered by Judge Aaron Satie — as a wisdom, and warning. The first time any man’s freedom is trodden on, we’re all damaged.
Jean-Luc is a character in the Star Trek universe.
Onto “real” things:
I want the election to be over with.
The dotter and I spent a few hours this afternoon making jack-o-lanterns, ghosts, witches, cemeteries, etc. to hang in the windows.
I have the first parent-teacher conference of the school year this Thursday. Ms. Nices is…well, nice enough…but I’m not so sure I’m thrilled with her as a teacher. Not dismayed, either, but not thrilled, the way I was with Mrs. Shoelace (who could Do No Wrong).
Soooo…is the economic mess “contained” yet? Wanna place bets?
