Stage
I
Ok, fine, so we're feeling a little silly.
Inspired by the popular shorthand WWJD? (What Would Jesus
Do?), an intrepid Sparks reader submitted his personal motto:
What Would Jean-Luc Picard Do? So we start with this Internet
image of Star
Trek captain Jean-Luc Picard (in real life, Shakespearian-trained
actor Patrick Stewart)
featuring the cool, steely gaze, the pouffy costume, and the
fabulous bald head.

Stage II
We wanted to focus only on the pointy top of Stewart's head,
but it stopped looking like a head and started looking like
a particularly well-tanned potato, so we cropped the photo
to include said Cool, Steely Gaze as well as the pointy ears.
The typeface selection was a cinch, vaguely Trekkie and easy
to read. But Pat's nose seems disturbingly cut off and we're
not quite getting that dramatic tension inherent in the quote.
(No, we really don't think there's dramatic tension, we're
just trying to keep you interested.)
