He's a crooner. That rules out the 40s, AFAIK. He could be '50s, of course....

On a per-lane.

Okay, this isn't quite a PNQ, so I may as well stick it here. From my Looking for Par'Mach in All the Wrong Places fiver:

Worf: Why am I helping you?
Quark: I guess some twisted soul thought playing Pygmalion in reverse was funny.
Worf: They're right. I hate that.

Is this situation actually Pygmalion in reverse? Looking back on it, it almost seems as though a Cyrano joke would be a bit more applicable. Of course, the "twisted soul" part is completely accurate, because I'm the one that chose to five this episode in the first place.

Worf: Why is he asking them about premise for a fiver he wrote?


Just noticing that the "all Seasons" menu for DS9 is showing only a header and no actual menu.

I'm asking if I'm applying the joke correctly, or if my brain is just that warped.

I believe it's stated as being 1962 Las Vegas, but tail end of the 50s could work, stylistically. Absolutely not the 40s -- nobody sang that way then, never mind the fact that Las Vegas was pretty much nowhere until the Mob started building hotels and casinos there in the late 40s.
