Captain Jean-Luc Picard Proposal

I have no information about this young lady, but it is obvious that she is very fortunate to have found a man of such discerning taste and character. “Aye aye, sir” would be an appropriate response.

Resistance is futile, so when Zeph and Sara LaFassett wanted a Jean-Luc Picard as wedding cake, baker Aaron Jue simply made it so. If you think the cake’s a bit creepy, consider this: the couple saved Jean-Luc’s head to eat on their first anniversary.

People Who Died on Their Birthdays

Posted by Alex in Everything Else on March 10, 2009 at 2:58 pm

Our very own Stacy Conradt wrote a neat article over at mental_floss about 10 people who died on their birthdays (full circle!) Here’s one that particularly interesting:

Jean Felix Piccard. Name sound familiar? It’s because he and his twin brother Auguste Piccard were the inspirations for the name of Star Trek’s Jean-Luc Picard. Jean’s inventions have been used in building aircrafts, spacecrafts and balloons (that’s him with his wife in the picture). He died on his (and his brother’s) birthday on January 28, 1963 at the age of 79.
