Boldly going where no Picard has gone before
So, I think I stood next to
Captain Picard on the 1/9 going uptown last night. Okay, maybe I didn't, but it was a man who looked a LOT like Patrick Stewart but with a rounded chin. He was wearing a natty blue suit, and shiny brown shoes. He was reading the New York Times. I read the back of the page he was looking at, and casually glanced over my shoulder at him every five or six seconds, cleverly concealing my intent by signally via my intent frown and inquisitive look that I needed to ascertain what stop we were at. Even when we were in a tunnel.
Whether or not he was Captain Picard -- and I choose to believe it was -- I had butterflies in my stomach all the way from 79th Street to 110th.

Do you think Patrick Stewart would even take the subway with us commoners?
