  1. 7. The Outrageous Okona. I knew what it was, but couldn't quite place it. And so I kept starring and staring at it until it just popped into my head.

    8. Picard's archaeologist lady friend.

    9. ST DS9. This guy brings some strange luck machines on board. Mayhem ensues.

    10. Quark and Rom pay a visit to Earth. Quark is in the process of kicking himself :D.

    Excellent identifications, all the way around! Between the two of you, you eliminated all but three photos from the gallery!

    Outstanding work...

  10. Yet another groovy set of conmen, or conwomen, as the case might be.

    I'm going out on a limb and say the last guy is from Smallville. The WB network logo is a clue (which, interestingly, looks like an armband), and there's a sign behind the same shoulder that looks like it us a sports pennant from Smallville High School.

    Anyway, once again you've made an excellent selection. This would make for another great book for you....LOL
