Hello World!

Hello Summer. The dip just after the end of the season, which we had last year for a while as well, seems to have appeared again. Only two news items yesterday, and things aren't looking that active today either. Fortunately Sev Trek doesn't seem to go on hiatus.

Of course, this does give me enough time to watch Euro 2000 without a guilty conscience. Yesterday's match (though we did win) was nothing to write home about, but today both Germany and England will be playing matches, so that should prove interesting to see. I probably shouldn't mention any of the results here after all - five people from America already mailed me they also were very interested in football, and were anxiously waiting to see the matches on Fox next week. I'm surprised to see that so many people in the States apparently like football, as I always was under the impression the sport didn't even exist there until they organised the World Cup. Now they just need to learn how to actually play well :-).

Contrary to the 'Best Episode' poll results, here it seems clear which episode you thought was the worst - this year's hololocation certainly wasn't a success, looking at how hated 'Fair Haven' and 'Spirit Folk' are. Anyway, please also participate in our new poll, asking how many episodes of the season you've seen so far:

Happy Birthday!

Today is the birthday of Felecia M. Bell, who appeared on DS9 several times as Jennifer Sisko.
