Happy Birthday, Mark Twain!


"If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything."

*********************

Samuel L. Clemens aka Mark Twain (1835 - 1910)  was born 176 years ago today. I thought it would be a fun way to celebrate by reminding you of a wonderful Star Trek The Next Generation two-part episode in which the crew travels back in time and Twain makes an appearance. What's more, he helps to save Commander Data AND spends some time aboard the Enterprise. Jerry Hardin is superb as Mark Twain. A truly fun episode featuring Whoopie Goldberg, as well. Don't miss it.

It you have Netflix or the Amazon equivalent, the episodes are available for streaming.

TIME'S ARROW Part 1 - End of Season 5. Part 2 - Beginning of Season 6.
