Scouring Wikipedia for names for my Starfleet register project, I came across this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Gallico

Well. I always contended that people were misreading "Galileo" (which is still possible) but now we see there is indeed a Gallico.

I don't know. I mean hasn't it been refer to as Galileo on screen. Plus in Star Trek V, doesn't the Ent-A also have a Galileo who's name is written in the same style as the TOS Galileo.

Plus,

:::shakes head::: Idiots. I swear, I'm the only person left on this forsaken rock with a memory or who does research.

No, he's talking about the ship on the computer display from "Whispers" (DS9). And this is old news, by the way, but Shik is forgiven on account of having been "out of the loop" for a long stretch...

Oh yeah, he was arrested for having sex with a minor, I forgets sometimes. But what do I know I'm an idiot. [Roll Eyes]

Sorry for the previous post, but you know Shik I don't appreciate you calling me an idiot. You said something like this in another thread. We're only talking about Star Trek, so there's no need to get our panties in a knot over a fictional universe. I'm sorry that I didn't ask before posting, but I'm only human. But now I know for next time to ask questions. Always ask questions.

It's alright. I can't hold truth against you. I'm sorry, too. I'm on the Mood Swing express lately--a whole mess of highly personal shit that no, I don't want to go into detail over. But instead of simply strolling down the road to Cantankerous Old Man-itude, I'm bolting down it like Jesse Owens. So...it's gonna happen a lot.

Its not our fault that we automatically assume that you're talking about the Whispers screen, you know. I had no idea what you were talking about when I messaged you last night, either.

Someone better solve the mystery of who let the dogs out and where is Shatner's hair.
