I am pretty sure that both have Birthdays in March. Reason I ask is that in the local Paper there is a listing of birthdays. some Actors, Actresses, Singers, Bassists, Dummers, et. al.
In the past neither Joolene or Conner were listed as having a Birthday. although many other Star Trek personalisites were. It seems that they are non persons. wonder why.

I don't suppose the local editor looks this up for himself every week, so perhaps he gets the information from a standard news service of some sort. And presumably that service excludes TnT. Perhaps they opted out, or failed to opt in? I wonder, if you found out the dates yourself and told the editor, whether he'd include them.

Doubt it. Think it is a nationaly sydicated thing. Anyay, Drummers and Bassists? A few Days ago they listed Gates McFadden's birthday. Have had many other Star Trek people in it. Not sure if Scott Bakkula was listed. Do kow that John billigsly (sp) had been. Whatever Star Trek in General has not been left out just JB and CT.

Time for a stroppy letter to the editor and see if he will publish it.
Sir,
I was shocked and outraged last year that you allowed TnT's birthdays to pass without mention. Please confirm that you won't be repeating this egregious insult this year.
Yours (outraged),

I don't think it's an intentional slight SB. You are quite the conspiracy theorist.

Intentional? Not sure. But is is passing strange that so many other Star Trek people are listed throughout the year and JB and CT are not. They are not household names but neither are drummers, Bassists, obscure Actors and Actresses who may have had a small part in a film and nothing else. At least JB abd CT were in a series that lasted four years. That must count for something.
Course, I have always wondered by JB and Ct have had such trouble getting decent roles. JB at least had one or two things but CT, who to my mind is a briliant Actor only gets walkon and bit parts which often wind up on the cutting room floor.

Well there's no doubt CT is a brilliant actor, but let's face it he's hardly the only ST alum to not get his due. Brent Spinner (DATA) should be a household name, and he isn't. Sometimes these things just happen. It doesn't mean there is a giant plot to screw Trek actors.

Happy Birthday to Jolene (T'Pol) blalock. The one who brought the female half of our favorite couple to life.
