Bill the Goat is the mascot of the United States Naval Academy. The mascot is a live goat and is also represented by a costumed midshipman. There is also a bronze statue of the goat just inside Gate 1, the main gate to the Academy grounds. This statue also plays a role in "Army Week" traditions.
The first Bill the Goat appeared in 1893. Currently, Bill XXXII reigns as the 35th mascot and is the 31th goat to be named Bill. His backup is Bill XXXIII.
SAN DIEGO - Walter M. Schirra Jr., one of the original Mercury Seven astronauts and the only man to fly on NASA's Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs, died Thursday. He was 84. Schirra died of a heart attack at Scripps Green Hospital in La Jolla, said Ruth Chandler Varonfakis, a family friend and spokeswoman for the San Diego Aerospace Museum. NASA had said he died late Wednesday but the family and the medical examiner's office both said it was Thursday.
...
Schirra’s Apollo mission in October 1968 restored the nation’s confidence in the space program, which had been shaken a year earlier when three astronauts, including Grissom, were killed in a fire on the launch pad. The Apollo 7 crew shot into space atop a Saturn rocket, a version of which would later carry men to the moon. But Schirra and his two fellow crew members were grumpy for most of the 11-day trip. All three developed bad colds that proved to be a major nuisance in zero gravity. (Years later, Schirra appeared in a TV commercial for the cold remedy he took.)
The well-known "Star Trek: The Next Generation" episode where "Captain Picard" was captured by the "Borg" was 3.59 years after 11/25/1986. I recognize the date 11/25/1986 as when my family had a funeral for me because they thought I had died while a POW of Libya.
From 11/25/1986 to 7/1/1990 is: 3 years, 218 days
218 / 365 = 0.59, which results in:
From 11/25/1986 to 7/1/1990 is: 3.59 years
Airdate July 1, 1990 (Part 1)

"The Best of Both Worlds" is a two-part episode from the third/fourth seasons of the television series Star Trek: The Next Generation.
...
"The Best of Both Worlds" is a significant and highly regarded two-part episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation that was written by Michael Piller and directed by Cliff Bole. Part I first aired during the week of July 1, 1990 as the third season finale and ended as a cliffhanger and fandom speculation began to mount about the fate of Captain Picard and the crew of the Enterprise-D. Part II concluded the story as the fourth season premiere during the week of September 24 of 1990, to many fans' delight and praise. Many fans and critics regard and praise them as the best episodes of the entire Star Trek saga, having achieved an almost cinematic level of story and scope. With this episode, and with its embarkation upon an unprecedented fourth season, The Next Generation was considered to have finally emerged from the shadow of its predecessor. It won Emmy Awards for "Outstanding Sound Editing for a Series" and "Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Drama Series" and was nominated for two others: "Outstanding Visual Effects for a Series" and "Outstanding Art Direction for a Series." It appeared in TV Guide's 100 Most Memorable Moments in TV History feature in its July 1, 1995 edition, and also in another issue on the 100 greatest TV episodes of all time.
The actress who portrayed "Chief O'Brien's" wife in "Star Trek: The Next Generation" and "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" is 5 years, 9 months, 3 weeks, 2 days, older than Phoebe Cates.
Rosalind Chao or Chao Jyalin (Chinese: 趙家玲; pinyin: Zhào Jiālín; born September 23, 1957[1]) is an American actress, born in Anaheim, California.
...
Chao played Keiko O'Brien (maiden name Ishikawa), a Japanese exo-botanist, in Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Keiko is the founder and teacher of a school on DS9's promenade, the wife of engineer Miles O'Brien, and a mother of two.
The episode where she married “Chief O’Brien” was 33 months, 1 day, after 4/6/1988. The date 4/6/1988 shows up a lot and I think that is when our first child was born.
Data's Day is a fourth season episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Data records the event of a single day of his life, which include Chief O'Brien and Keiko's pre-wedding jitters, learning to dance and investigating the loss of a Vulcan Ambassador in a transporter accident.
There are several clues that point to something important and relevant to my real identity around the time of 4/6/1988 but I can’t get the precise date, probably because of day-of-week scheduling constraints. The anchor dates are 5/13/1987, which is the date I recognize as returning alive from Africa. The date 3/5/1989 is the date listed as when she married her husband. I interpreted a detail from “Star Trek: First Contact” to point to 4/6/1988. That might have been an inside joke that my wife said around the time she was trying to give birth to our first child that she was never going to have sex with me again. I don’t know why the 3-3-1 is showing up though, but I haven’t been looking for it. I just started noticing it coming up in association with the date 4/6/1988.
From 5/13/1987 to 4/8/1988 is: 331 days
From 4/8/1988 to 3/5/1989 is: 331 days
From 4/6/1988 to 11/22/1996 is: 3152 days
From 3/15/1998 to 5/3/2007 is: 3336 days
The thought occurred to me that "memory" of Tracie breaking into my apartment may not even have any literal basis as an event. A consistent theme I sense is that I might have found Phoebe annoying at first but she grew on me and that actually makes sense now with everything considered. It could be completely symbolic of how I feel in love with Phoebe. Even though she and I were about the same age, the world had piled so many of those proverbial layers but she broke through so that she became quite endearing to me and now I still really wish she was literally here. She's with me every where I go, but damn I wish I could see her. Tracie told me that the ironing board I had left propped up against that back door was very scary when it fell over after she got the door open but she continued into my bedroom. I woke up in my waterbed and saw her standing there in the semi-dark and I asked her why she still had her clothes on. Another time she kept calling me and told me she was coming over to my apartment in Central, SC, and I really wanted to be alone but I knew she had a key and nothing was going to stop her from coming in. I came up with a plan and I flipped off the circuit breakers to all the rooms but the bedroom and locked myself in there. I knew she wouldn't know to look for the breaker; plus it was pitch dark in there. She came in anyway and was yelling something for a while outside my door before she finally kicked the door but she didn't kick it down. I finally let her in my bedroom and I can still visualize that with her on top of me talking to me. She told me that had really scared her; being in there with all the lights off. But then at some point, she asked me if I would marry her and I told her I would. I can't "remember" if that was before or after the time I gave her the ring and asked her to marry me. I "remember" that day I was over at her house where she lived with her parents and I brought the ring with me. I was playing in the living room with Amanda, her daughter and she was laughing and I gave her the ring in the box and told her to take it in the kitchen to her mother. I was impressed that Amanda could be laughing and playing around like that and then suddenly get serious and follow my directions.
After I was writing about those artificial and symbolic memories, I suddenly thought of the Oingo Boingo song, “When The Lights Go Out.” The album with that track was released 33 months, 1 week, after 5/13/1987. I also found myself about the differences between the music of The Doors and Pink Floyd and then the music of Duran Duran, Devo, and Oingo Boingo. Assuming that I was a major contributor to all that work, I am thinking that the differences between The Doors and Pink Floyd was because of the influence of Phoebe Cates. It’s all good music, but yet, I sense there is something much different to it all. Maybe it was all just because I was in love. I also wanted to leave something for her to find years later so that if I survived all those battles I was in, she would know that I had been thinking about her a lot.
Dark at the End of the Tunnel is the sixth studio album by Oingo Boingo, released in 1990. It is the first collection of all new material released by the band since their 1986 album BOI-NGO. It is also notable as the first record to find the band shying away from the previously heavy use of New Wave elements with more emphasis on a heavy, Modern Rock sound.

When The Lights Go Out Lyrics
When the lights go out
Everybody has fun
When the lights go out
Everybody runs to a safe place
When the lights go out
Everybody`s afraid
When the lights go out
Everybody starts to pray
Starts to pray
Monsters & Madmen
All come alive
When the dead start walking
There`s no place to hide
There`s no place to hide
CHORUS
Hey--Let`s turn the night into day
Let`s start a fire in an alley way
Let`s all go crazy by & by
And let`s all pray to the cat`s eye
No one can be trusted, when the lights go out
People act real crazy, people start to shout
People huddle together, try and hide their fear
People party down by they ain`t goin` nowhere
They ain`t goin` nowhere
Gonna run outside
What`s there to see
Just one big shadow there to comfort me
There to comfort me . . . there to comfort me
CHORUS
Just common folks like you and me
Turn into mobs that get so crazy
Prowl the streets like cats
Out for the hunt
Breaking all the windows just because it`s fun
Just because it`s fun, just because it`s fun
