How much better would most Patrick Swayze movies be, with a simple casting change from Swayze to Patrick Stewart.

But this brings up some important questions:

Would Bodhi still have such luscious long hair (requiring Stewart to have extensions or a wig) or would the thrill seeking surfer be bald?

Would Dr. Houseman have freaked out so much initially about Baby dating Johnny if he had been played by Stewart, or would he possibly have freaked out more? (Can't you just see Picard saying "nobody puts Baby in the corner"?)

And don't you think that if Stewart had been Jed, that the Commies never would have taken Colorado?

And no question about it, that pottery scene would have been WAY hotter with Stewart as Sam.

Speaking of guys named Sam, would Quantum Leap have been better with a different Enterprise Captain leaping through time?

I'm just sayin'. (clearly I am ready to go back to school. I have a splitting headache, and it may or may not be due to these random thoughts which are filling my head which is currently otherwise unoccupied with the minutae of my school work).

Oh, and further proof that Jason is going to make me proud with his wierdness. We know that he doesn't like sweets (cake, cookies, ice cream, etc). But now he is eating a piece of bread. Most little kids eat the middle, and stinkeye the crusts. Not Jason. He peels off the crusts and eats them first, and then plays with the squishy center.

Oh, and Dakota just asked me, "where do we keep the peanut butter sandwiches anyway?!" Funny Girl.
