What is your personal head canon?

[hbquikcomjamesl]

Why is a toilet referred to as the head?

It comes from the Age of Sail. At the bow of the ship are two timbers protruding on either side, slightly aft of the bowsprit and figurehead, known as catheads. The bow anchors are hung from them, and on an armed vessel, they can also serve as mounts for the pursuit guns. Below all of that is an open grille of wooden bars, just enough to support a human being, known as the heads. This was the most convenient place to "hang it over the side," and relieve one's bowels and/or bladder, without fouling the vessel with waste products, and with relatively minimal danger of falling overboard.

The only reason why I know that is that about 35 years ago, I was asked to assemble a large number of wargame miniature sailing warships, and felt that it was a good idea to pick up a couple of books on the subject. And so The Overlook Illustrated Dictionary of Nautical Terms and The Lore of Sail both entered my library.

That's a cool bit of info

Ah, the Open Oceans, the worlds Largest Toilet where Humans, Animals, and miscellaneous defecate.

New head-canon of mine: The "All Good Things" Future is set in 2404.

It's never said what year the AGT Future took place in, so my head-canon is that it actually takes place in 2404, not 2395. "25 years since we were all aboard the Enterprise." The last time they were on the Enterprise was 2379 in Nemesis. There was no sign that they were all leaving after "All Good Things" and their adventures would've continued whether it was the D or the E.

Then the 2404 in "All Good Things" would also more closely match the 2404 two years after Picard. The Enterprise-D is around. Data is alive and has emotions. I could see him deciding to work at University in either version of the future. Picard and Beverly still had a romantic relationship, one led to marriage, the other didn't, and there's nothing to say they couldn't have had a son in the AGT Future either. If he's in his 20s in the AGT version, Jack could be off doing his own thing. It's never established that Geordi has a son in PIC, but nothing that outright contradicts it. So, if Brett is applying to Starfleet Academy "next year" in 2404, that would probably make him 17 in 2404 and 14 in 2401, thus probably still with his mother.

The only thing that's completely different, besides the Enterprise-D not having a third nacelle, is Worf being the governor of a Klingon moon in AGT but not in PIC.

Otherwise, none of it is exactly 1:1, but a lot of it isn't too far off the mark.
