So did I and when they first encountered them, the Hirogen were frightening.

I agree again here, and a part we don't usually see him pushed to either, as Harry seems to be the perfect StarFleet Academy Graduate, much like Janeway.
Agreed... AND.... She can sing. She has proven her acting ability time and again, buy "stepping out" of the borg personna. She is the only reason to watch Voyager... Well her and to see Janeways coutrmartial, which markmy words, will come when they finally make it home.

Ain't gonna happen. Bringing back an intact ship with most of the crew alive would be seen as an heroic act. Something to make the people feel good after a devastating Alpha Quadrant war.

Yes what a voice, she could not sing in the 1990 Miss America pageant and she still can't sing! Well the Miss America pageant has never been noted to choose the most *talented* top ten contestants ;)

Actually that is one of the very few pagents that does focus mainly on talent and poise. It has also produced a number of success stories. Look at Vanessa Williams. No one can dispute her talent.
I didn't see Ryan in that pagent or if I did, it wasn't reamrkable. But I have heard her sing and I think she is wonderful. But then again, I like Celine Dion and Shania Twain - so what do I know?
|But then again, I like |Celine Dion and Shania Twain - so what do I know?
Masked Man---->I know what I know: you have great taste in music. Celine is one of a kind. When all is said and done, she'll be one of the great pop singers of our time - mentioned in the same breath as Ella and Frank...

Thanks, MM. I don't necessarily care for every song she has ever done, but there is no denying the talent. She is also a classy lady.

When you're Seven of Braga -- overuse is irrelevant.

I thought that they were already space faring, and then became solitary hunters?

You need to come to one of my parties. I swear I have to make sure plastic utensils and glasses are used, or else there would be marred people everywhere.

Ironically, I was out shopping Saturday night and came across a Star Trek Mag that had the statistics of Wonder Wesley. Here, let me share them with you:
Total percent Wesley Crusher saved the Enterprise in 7 seasons:
12%
Total percent Wesley Crusher saved the Enterprise until he left in "First Duty":
20%
Total percent Wesley Crush saved the Enterprise in the First Season:
**** 24% ****
I can't wait to see percentages for Seven of Braga.

Hi gf:-) *you* at least, are speaking from experience ... I can comment because her voice is my range and Since I have heard them, I think that Picardo, Beltran, Russ, (and probably Philips and Dawson), sing equally as well....(don't know if KM or GW sing).

Me either...I am sure she has surpassed him, and I would imagine the Doc has too... That's interesting. Thanks for sharing it!

Actually Talent is worth 40%, Swimsuit and evening gown is 30% and Interview is worth 30% of the program they changed the rules a few years back. It is a wonderful program for young women, but most the most talented women are left in the remaining 40 contestants not picked for the top 10. They pick the top ten to create a "good show" and not always the best singers etc are selected. A lot of it depends on the state you are from (Illinois has a strong state pageant). Vanessa Williams was a very strong singer and has my respect as a artist she could sing and deserved the title. To this day I give her credit for going on and showing the Miss A pageant just how talented she was!!!

I enjoy Celine and enjoy cranking Shania on the car cd player, but as far as Jeri Ryan singing would have to disagree with you :))))

You forgot Robbie! :(
I've heard him sing, and he's pretty much at the same level as Tim, IMHO.
>>>I liked the idea of a race who evolved as solitary hunters having to adapt to >spacefaring life.

No, I think they were always solitary hunters. The problem was that space travel allowed them/forced them to become *too* solitary. Sort of Trek's version of Dorsai. <g>

Yes my limited experience but was a fun time :))) Can we say Elizabeth Ward er Gracen???

Interesting would put Tim Russ way ahead of them all as far as voices go but thats just MHO :)))

"take the cheese to sickbay" B'elanna What is the phrase heard most often in Voyager's Mess Hall? "Medical Emergency!!!" What did the blonde Klingon say? It was a good day to dye.

Pardon me? Before I decide on posting something vague? When I know something, I'll state it. When I don't, I will simply state as I did above, that I'm not quite sure of the specifics, thus allowing someone else who does know the specifics to fill them in. Quite honestly, I had no interest in researching exactly which series Jeri Ryan appeared in briefly. If not knowing that little fact makes me a "casual" poster, instead of an "informed" poster, oh, well.
I've noticed that posting "vague" information is done quite often on this newsgroup, without people being told to go do research before they post. So why pick on me? Still ticked at me for being supposedly "ignorant" when it was *you* who misread my post, accused me falsely of making a statement I did not make, and then flamed me? That's the best I can figure, and I don't get it. You were wrong.

Wow...loved his speaking voice...I don't think it records well on tv... If he's at the Ball stuff this year, we'll have to see if we can get him to sing something (he was great with the audience).
