I'll try to demand to speak to the Queen & try to nagotiate in ways never tried before in Trek. The Queen may be intrigued how a prewarp race know her existance & have lots of info on them though we never met & may want to negotiate rather then wasting such interesting race, lol. What would you do if ... negotiations is succeeded & humanity have 2 choice, unite as a species or remain separated & try hard to get aliens on their side. With you as the choice maker. Negotiation is irrelevant. You will be assimilated.

Ah that's what the Drones would say. But as the Queen listens, she'd think otherwise

Here's one for you:
What would you do if the only girl you ever really loved moved out of state to go to college and broke up with you after 2 years of long distance dating to date someone else? You remained friends but school and work and life got so busy that you eventually grew apart and lost touch. It's been about 3 years since you last spoke and the love you felt for her originally, has not grown weaker. She's about a 12 hour drive away from where you are located. You don't know her address or phone number, only the city in which she lives. You do however, know her parent's number and they only live an hour away. You have no idea if she's married or single, or if she even thinks about you anymore. You also don't know if she'd be completely wierded out by the fact that it's been so long and you're still thinking about her.
Given the circumstances above, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

lol, sorry about not replying sooner. hope i didn't scare u or something. But the events u mentioned is somewhere simliar to my own. But not as drastic. 1. We are friends only from the beginning, she went to another country to study & we lost contact, when she returned things continue to be friends too. But school, work & etc. all slowly split us apart for some time. We haven't spoken since. Now if you'll excuse me, while I griff for the moment.

Jesus....does EVERYONE have a similar heart breaking story?
Well, I can assure you Vold, I have not been spying on you. This little scenario comes straight from the unabridged "Life With Speed" bestselling autobiography that you can find in your local bookstores!! Just kidding. It really is a true account of something that happened in my life a few years back. I hate to sound like a whiney bitch, but when you love someone this way, you tend to dwell on it. At least I do. I am actually curious as to what everyone thinks I should do regarding this heart-wrenching episode from my past. I've overanalyzed all kinds of scenarios to the point that I have no idea what the right move would be. If there even is anything such as a "right move." Sometimes it's easier for someone not connected to the situation emotionally to make suggestions and look at the problem objectively. Any suggestions from any and all of you would be appreciated.

If I were you, I'd seek this girl out. Given, it may end up hurting you, but there is also a chance that it may bring you undescribable happiness. As a precaution, you may want to try to look this girl up over the Internet, or ask her parents for her phone number, as it is alot easir to begin these situations over the phone, as opposed in person. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. I know it's easier said then done, I know from first hand experience.
I feel in love, and had a baby with my high school sweethart. I loved this girl more then anything (except my daughter of course) but she did me more wrong then I ever thought possable. It nearly killed me, and lead to me pretty much running away for almost two years where I traveled the US, Canada, and Mexico. Eventually thought I returned home, and being the evil person my ex is, I finally ended up with custody of my daughter, whom still lives with me to this very day.

Now that's what I call "Math That Makes Sense!" AND I JUST GOT PROMOTED TO LIEUTENANT COMMANDER!! WOO HOO!!!! I'm like permanent Bridge Crew now!!! Oh MAN!! This rules!!!
*breathing deeply in a futile attempt to calm down*
Now, about the fountain of youth. Basically what you're saying is that you and whoever you chose to share it with, would be immortal, correct? This is the assumption I am working with.
I would probably start a series of small businesses and since I would be immortal, I could run them forever, making them bigger and better till I basically took over everything and controlled the world. But a world of my rule would be a world based on peace, cooperation, curing society's ailments, curing mankind's illnesses, science, and research. Basically I would try to usher in the era that Star Trek takes place in where there is no money, no disease, no homeless, etc., etc.. It would be a long, difficult journey, but being immortal, I know I could eventually pull it off.
Who would I share it with, you ask? Well...you know the girl I posted about up the page a little bit? The one I haven't spoken to in a while? Assuming I could reconcile things with her, I would definately choose to share an immortal life with her. If reconciliation wasn't possible...I'm sure I'd get over her a few hundred years after she died. Or maybe not...maybe I'd go the "mad scientist" route and obtain her body and soak it in the water from the fountain to see if she'd come back to life? Nah....that's wacked....but love makes you do crazy stuff sometimes. LOL!
Here's a question to keep things going: What would you do if you could bring any one person in world history back from the dead? Who would it be and why?

She sounds as heartless as my ex wife, Wolf. I could run a thread up to 50 posts ranting about the evil, cruel, and heartless things that woman did to me.
If I could bring anyone from histroy back, a historical figure, I'd bring back Einstien. The man basically invented qauntum physics, it would do the world alot of good to have him around now, knowing everything we've discovered since his time.
If you could have ANY career you desired starting tomorrow, which would it be?

If you could have ANY career you desired starting tomorrow, which would it be? Errr... I hope this is the new question in this "game"? Not sure with all the heartache floating about... LOL Let me just quickly tell you guys that not all women are the same, just as not all guys are nasty and unfaithful buggers, right? (Want to insert a winky here...) So I ask you kindly not to be too harsh on every female person you come across in the future. Just as I believe that no matter how hard you try to do something, you will not succeed if fate had a different way layed out for you, I also believe that there is always a reason why something doesn´t go the way you think it should. Several times in my life I wondered why something went wrong and later found out that fate had indeed planned something much better for me than I had originally choosen. So... if you didn´t stay together with the woman you loved, I am certain that she wasn´t meant to be with you in the first place or... at least not till the end. OK, and now back to the game... If I could have any career I desire, I would choose to be like Fox and Scully rolled into one. I would only be too happy to have access to those files they have access to. OR.... I would want to be working with SG1... and know everything, just like Samantha Carter. LOL And here is my question:If you could go into a shuttle and leave Earth, forever drifting through space until the end of time and you could take one other person with you.... who would it be?

*70's cheesy music playing* PORN STAR-YEA!!!! THE ULTIMATE CAREER !!!
OK...that is just like the ultimate fantasy career....and not very realistic..LOL I think my more realistic career if I could have ANY would be to open up some kind of live action role playing game place where people could come and play out stories in real life. have a building totally built up to be its own little world....and let people just get away from the real world. have diff themes too.....have one set up for star trek....another for fantasy...maybe aliens....and so on.

LOL...sorry....just felt that was too good a one not to answer....when else would I be able to say pornstar! LOL and as far as your question goes.....thats easy...I would take my g/f......thats the easiest answer in the world for me so i guess i have to ask one now huh.....ok... What would do if....the world was going to be destroyed by an asteroid.....and only a few small pockets of humanity would be able to survive by living in some undergorund bunkers for a year after it hit. You have access to an old unused military bunker that was abandoned years ago....but after supplying it with food and water you only have enough room for 9 people besides yourself to survive. who would u let in and who u let die? Family?(but then who would u repopulate the species with?) good looking women/men to repopulate with? people with mechanical knowledge or survival skills for after you leave the shelter? you can only pick 9 people besides yourself....who would you let live? and oh yea....i would like to see a few people answer this one....so if you answer another question just leave your answer to this one in your post as well ;D
