Thanks. I like you too.
A simple play on the name of a famous Texas author in combination with what Seven might call "cannabis."
The most unintentionally hilarious episode of my favorite series.
Macross fighter jet. Of such ive built 20+ model kits of.
Valkyrie, who is your avatar?
Wasn't Nerys also Niles ex in Frasier?
Maris.
mine was purely coincidential. I was in chat with JimGamma and RJDiogenes and mentioned that the rhododendrons were already in full bloom while there was still fresh rhubarb at the local market. Usually some weeks lie between both and it struck me as a sign of climate change. RJD liked the sound of "rhubarb and rhododendron" and I challenged him to type it thrice very quickly as a sort of finger twister (online version of a tongue twister).
He came up with rhubarbodenodron and I decided to use it at TrekBBS. As it turned out to be slightly longer than the board settings permitted, I shortened it to rhubarbodendron.
oops, that reminds me that I saw the first rhubarb in the market last week. Must be around my anniversary under this username. *checks* Yes indeed! 12 years last Monday.
When I first joined the board in 2001 or 2002 - don't recall the year exactly - I used the Klingon word for honour as I thought the board could urgently do with some. TrekBBS was in a very evil spirit back then. Fortunately, this has changed by now and so my rejoining called for a name that fitted the new board mood.

Hot mouth?In my case, my imaginary character Rebecca Montgomery Fox*...a hot-mouth mutant.
*[created in 1984, partialy-based on an AP English classmate with a similar name.]
That's a cool (pardon the pun) idea! It would be a bit like Cyclops without glasses. I think the character has a lot of potential. She'd come enormously handy on ice worlds. I imagine she'd also have to be very heat resistent so as to not incinerate herself. That would make her a good ambassador to beings who live in a sun's corona or on its surface (those aliens could even communicate by flames so that she can be an interpretor). She could also enter the hot parts of ships' reactors to do repairs while the engines are working, e.g. when fleeing from an opponent.
Or even as an ambassador to the Tholians, I wish we'd see more of them in Trek, I mean they had connections to the time wars and were interested in the timeship in "future tense" and we know next to nothing about them.
On older Grass Valley video production switchers, there was a light labeled N/S that would light when a selected source was not in time with the system or non-synchronous or non-sync for short.
I tend to privately march to my own cadence.
FYI, a later model of this switcher was the firing lever for the Deathstar.
Sorry the post was so long ago,but my father troubleshot those for GVG for about 6 years back in the 70s..after he was laid off from RCA..
