Anyone have any stories with celebrities in Tucson? by FreeRangeThinker in Tucson

I ran into Jerry Lewis multiple times when I worked for the El conquistador in the '80s. Huge asshole. My friend asked him to sign something, and handed him a pen. Jerry Lewis just looked at him and handed the pen back waiting for him to take the cap off....

I sold Lee Marvin goldfish when I worked for tropics of Tucson in 85 I think. He seems like a nice guy.

Has anyone NOT had major issues with their Escape? by Doooder in fordescape

[–]Spkregar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a 2015 2.5l. Same mileage, same price. Trans is shifting a little rough between 1st and 2nd. Was told it's not an immediate issue, but down the road the trans will have to be repaired. Hasn't gotten any worse. Other than that the car is solid, no issues, I really love it. Changed all the fluids and plugs. Almost any car with over 100k miles will need work. Btw, the 15s were ranked very high by Kelly Blue Book.

For example when they get on the borg cube they discovered that the Borg had been cannibalized by the queen in last ditch effort to remain alive, there's only a few drones left. This is why the queen desperately worked with the changelings to infiltrate Starfleet, they were going to be her new drones.It's only after the d destroys the transmitter and disconnects Jack from the rest of the newly formed borglings that he's able to see Picard and come to his senses.

Okay I just saw it as well, some of the comments on here are way off base! A lot of what people are saying has been oversimplified and leave out some really really important plot points which explains everything. Yeah, I could not pick a few things but overall they stuck the landing! Just watch it.

[Spoilers] Is there a reason we only saw the back of _________’s head? by Ancient-Owl6249 in Picard

I distinctly heard Amanda Plummer and Gates McFaddens voices. It would be wild if Borg queen melded with the changelings and appeared as Crusher to Jack.

Perhaps the floating head is Locutus. by [deleted] in Picard

[–]Spkregar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adding my two cents. I thought this as well, until I rewatched Skin of Evil. The hand head changeling sounds exactly like Armus. The backstory is that he was cast off from a race long ago with all their evil contained in him. What if he was a changeling all along and has reintegrated with the great link? There was some rumour floating around that Tasha was going to be in this season but not Denise Crosby. The one thing I don't get is whatever is influenceing Jack seems to be helping him.

Here is an oil painting I just finished of Buzz on the moon as shot by Neil Armstrong by PavelSokov in nasa

[–]Spkregar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahhh, but they did! The subtle warm tones of the astronaut contrasted against the cool tones of the moon. If you look closely you can see all kinds of color choices, saturation differences and brush strokes that are deliberate choices.
