How about a game of Mornington Crescent?
Time

My favorite rumor is that it was a centerfold of the Iron Lady herself before the censors got to it, located every copy of the book (which had just shipped to stores), and physically removed page 23 from the book.  Strange that somehow page 24 remained.

In any case, do you wish to make a counter accusation, or do you cede your onion harvest?

This reminds me of a time I pitted the Mac chess application against the Atari chess cartridge...

 That's a fun little experiment.  It's amazing how well the Atari held up against a modern machine, and only on level 4.  You should try that again sometime, maybe not on level 7, but at least on 5 or 6.

So, if I read you correctly, you gave it 4 out of 5 stars then? ;)

I agree, sadly.  Loved it when it was new and I was very young, but now watching it, it kinda sucks.  Like you said, it's much better as simply a TNG movie, and it piques my interest in "Kirk-less" Generations at FE.org.  On the other hand, it's the only time we ever see the Enterprise-B, so it's a shame to lose that stuff.
