I'll blame all my personal issues on my decision to use linux on
nearly all of my machines. Thanks! That means, Linux is to
blame for me being such an asshole.. er, no, wait, I was already
an asshole long before I learned about linux... damnit.

Why curse the dog? A riddle that no critic has solved to this day!

What dog?? The "Spot" that I've seen recently (on ST:TNG) is a CAT!!

That would be Datas pet cat, yes. Even artificial lifeforms see

I saw a discussion about where did Data's Spot (episode Data's Day) come
from; where did he get her?

Since it is not recorded in the canons, here's the Soong-source
speculation I liked best:

"Data's Day happens shortly after Data meets Dr. Soong, and it is clear
after he returns to the enterprise that he has brought back some of
Soong's belongings. My theory is that Spot actually belonged to his
father and so he inherited her."

You should be able to find that all by yourself. Try Linux User #393236.

That sounds feasable. Inherited or not, it's Data's cat now. Which,
in a very weak way, supports what I wrote initially. -- really trying.
