Star Trek: Generations


:46:10
Guinan, you must tell me
everything that you know.

:46:15
We think Soran has developed
a terrible weapon -

:46:20
- with enough power to destroy ...

:46:23
Soran doesn't care about weapons.
He just wants to get back to the nexus.

:46:29
What the nexus?

:46:33
The energy ribbon was not a random
phenomenon travelling through space.

:46:40
It's a doorway to another place
that we call the nexus.

:46:44
A place I've tried hard to forget.

:46:55
What happened to you?

:47:00
It was like being inside joy.

:47:05
As if joy was a blanket
you could wrap yourself up in.

:47:11
Never in my entire life
have I ever been as content.

:47:17
- And then you were beamed away.
- Pulled. Ripped away.

:47:23
None of us wanted to go. I would
have done anything to get back there.

:47:34
But I realised it wasn't possible.

:47:37
- What about Soran?
- If he's still obsessed, he's dangerous.

:47:44
Why would he destroy a star?.

:47:52
Thank you, Guinan.

:47:57
If you go,
you're not going to care about anything.

:48:05
Not this ship, not Soran, nothing.
You'll just want to stay in the nexus.

:48:14
And you're not going
to want to come back.

MODEST MOUSE LYRICS

"Space Travel Is Boring"

Won herself a pass to some far off moon
It was second class but what's to lose
And looking out her window she could more than assume
That you can't see air or time
She's the only rocketeer in the whole damn place
They gave her a mirror so she could talk to a face
She still got plenty lonely but that's just the case
With time, time, time
Started hearing voices sometime in June
She knew she could go crazy but didn't think that soon
Now she doesn't feel lonely but she'd just as soon
Try, try, try try
Man shot to the moon
I read a paperback and want to come home soon
I'm shot to the moon
Been there a half an hour, I want to come home soon

:49:37
Captain's log, Stardate 48632.4.

:49:40
Data's emotion chip has been fused
into his neuralnet.

:49:46
However, he is fit for duty and is
joining me in Stellar Cartography.

:49:52
The ribbon is a conflux
of temporal energy -

:49:56
- which travels through here
every 39.1 years.

:50:01
It will pass through this sector
in 42 hours.

:50:04
Guinan was right. Soran is
trying to get back to the ribbon.

:50:09
What's the connection
with the Amargosa star?.

:50:13
Give me a list of anything that was
affected by the star's destruction.

:50:20
- Data?
- Sorry, sir.

:50:26
It will take the computer a few
moments to compile the information.

:50:33
Data, are you all right?

:50:38
No, sir. I am finding it
difficult to concentrate.

I do remember participating in Freedom Of Navigation exercises. As the world gets smaller, those kinds of international agreements become especially important. But, as America, we have to also remember what I think of as the Survivor principle. I've never actually watched that series, but I remember reading something about how the weak contestants joined together to vote off the most likely winner. It is sort of like reverse-Darwinism. Darwinism, of course, doesn't really take into account man's thinking and planning capacity. I believe that as humans, we are still evolving, but, while I have no idea what sort of education I have on this topic, Darwinism, as defined in popular culture, doesn't really apply to human's progress. Or maybe it does, I don't know, if you applied it religiously, it is maleable enough to fit with almost any theory.

Memorable quotes for

Thunderball (1965)


James Bond: My dear girl, don't flatter yourself. What I did this evening was for Queen and country. You don't think it gave me any pleasure, do you?

Fiona: But of course, I forgot your ego, Mr. Bond. James Bond, the one where he has to make love to a woman, and she starts to hear heavenly choirs singing. She repents, and turns to the side of right and virtue...

[she steps on Bond's foot]

Fiona: ... but not this one!

Revelations


7:13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? 7:14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

7:15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.

7:16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.

7:17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

8:1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.

Even if Lily is as nice in person as she seems to be on TV, I'm beginning to think I shouldn't pursue it. I've been feeling confident this thing could actually be real, but that is actually a real problem. So many people are watching what I do in private so they can try to mimic my success. If I talk to a pretty woman on TV while sitting in my living room and then end up spending the foreseeable future finding ways to make her smile in a real relationship, then there are going to be other people out there trying the same thing. And after that Tacoma Mall terrorist, I just think this is all a bad idea. As some jerk standing next to me the other day pointed out conspicuously secretive: It sucks to be me. And then there are all these people with the "priceless," "volume down," etc. bullshit.....when does it end? How are they finding out this stuff? Why can't they just all go away and if anybody has to monitor everything I do and write, why can't they just give that job to Lily? That would be pretty fun.

I remember having dreams when I last slept but I can remember absolutely no details. Except, maybe something to do with my imaginary girlfriend, Lily. For a while I have been wondering if they can also manipulate my half-asleep dreams too. Those are those first dreams I remember having when I am drifting off to sleep. I have never really thought of them as dreams though, rather more like random thoughts that go through my mind as I drift off. Last night, I have two such thoughts that stuck with me when I woke up minutes or seconds later. The first one was of Senator Carl Levin standing in front of me either in an elevator or waiting for an elevator. He said something about how my "reading was correct." The second scene was of Lily telling me of some endearing quality about herself.

This imaginary girlfriend routine is kind of fun, but with all these actors around me, who knows what is the reality. What I really want to avoid is encouraging people to stalk women on TV. No one should take seriously the perceived affections of a person on TV. My hope is that this situation will end soon and then some third person will make arrangements where we can meet and I can determine if this was all my imagination.

1:33:32
I must have jumped that 50 times.
Scared the hell out of me each time.

1:33:36
Except this time.

1:33:39
Because it isn't real.

1:33:46
- Antonia.
- She isn't real either, is she?

1:33:51
Nothing here is.
Nothing here matters.

1:33:56
Maybe this is more about that empty
chair on the bridge of the Enterprise.

1:34:04
Ever since I left Starfleet
I haven't made a difference.

1:34:19
Captain of the Enterprise?
Close to retirement?

1:34:25
- I'm not planning on it.
- Don't.

1:34:29
Don't let them promote or transfer you.
Don't let them do anything -

1:34:34
- that takes you off that ship. Because
there you can make a difference.

1:34:40
Come back and help me stop Soran.
Make a difference again.

1:34:56
Who am I to argue with
the captain of the Enterprise?

In an office, my boss's boss, was telling me that I had made history today. She said something about me proving how a single person can make a difference. She handed me some stuff including a chain that you use for dog tags. I was looking at it and there was something about it being too long, or needing to have some links taken out of it. I don't recognize me boss's boss, but my boss was familar. The senior person told me that my boss appreciate's people that are passionate about their work, after I was commenting on how much I enjoy my work.
