Picard for me and thanks for the book recommendations!
I left two names and links for the lottery winners that were murdered on yesterday’s post. There’s a lot more names I could have added. It’s crazy how many lottery winners end up dead.
On a more positive note, I hope everyone has a great weekend!
Tough choice, but Kirk was my girlhood (literally) crush. Picard is my mature choice; the sort of boss everyone should have.
I’m going at Captain Picard! Between the two of them, he is my fav!
I’m going with Kirk too.
Picard all the way for me!

Tough, but the mature choice is Picard.
