Jack and Jean-Luc

I watched some Torchwood episodes recently. Continue to like Captain Jack Harkness. He's unapologetic and he's in charge. (And he kisses guys with gusto. Funny line when faced with a time rift that has folks from the past drifting into Cardiff and he must pacify an angry displaced centurion, "Normally an agitated Roman soldier would make my morning.")   Has no time for sentimental moralism and he does what needs doing. Jean-Luc and his merry band of super-ethical idealists on Star Trek, ceaselessly preaching and pondering from their privileged perch of an unreal utopian world. I'll pass.

Time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived.

Do it. Or we'll all die. Do it now! Because I say so!
