Loops

So I’m sick as a dog but can’t sleep, so I’m watching old episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation. It’s just high-end enough to keep me interested, but comfortable and familiar enough not to overexert my fuzzed-out brain.

I was watching the episode where the Enterprise gets caught in a time loop and at the end they encounter a starship named the Bozeman, captained by Kelsey Grammer. It suddenly hit me that on The Big Bang Theory, Sheldon decided to move to Bozeman Minnesota after his apartment was robbed. Sure enough, it was done as a quiet shout-out to Star Trek. Bozeman was also the place where humans first met Vulcans, so naturally Sheldon would go there.

Funny what you think of when your head is swimming in circles.

  1. hope you feel better soon!
    I hadn’t gotten the Star Trek reference in that BBT, thank you for pointing that out!

  2. This one’s for when you manage to get your head out of the loo! 😀

    • So droll. So very droll. ;P

      You should, like, have a radio show or something.

      • Tee hee. So do you think I have a good radio voice? Or is my weirdness my schtick? I certainly do have a song for just about everything (my crazy redhead grandma was like that – used to get on people’s tits).

        I remember one time on the Dr Laura show way back, when some caller was worried about her son, who was 2 or 3, exposing himself for kicks, they came back from commercial break with “Hey, you’ve got to hide your love away…” LOL! That was just one of those great radio moments.

        For anyone who didn’t get the reference…

        • You could definitely start an internet radio station. I don’t think you would get a huge following, but it would be very dedicated. You may even be doing the public a service by keeping those people off the streets. 😉

          Wow. Hilarious.
