Finnish males do have a stereotype of being loners, leading to jokes like this:

Two Finns got together for a drink after not having seen each other for a long time. After sitting at the table drinking for an hour, one spoke up: "Sure is cold today, isn't it?"

The other growled, "Did we come here to drink or to talk?"

Here's a group of four Finns, in an 1894 painting:

That is what I love about Europe. You can find all kinds of mentalities, and to be honest, cuisines, movies, and music. It is commonly assumed that the Finnish gloominess is related to the short days and long nights there in the North but I believe it must be more than that.

Me, too! I searched on YouTube to find it in 1972. And my first hits were really weird. As I got it it was a clear case of facepalm. :headbang:

If you weren't aware, Kelsey grammar did cameo in an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation as captain of USS Bozeman.
"Yesterday's Enterprise." One of the better episodes in the series, in fact. Though he had all of, like, two lines! (Though what they did with Tasha's character as a result was, IMHO, pretty lame.)

Stardate 432625.2(?) Okay, I watched it enough that I pretty much had the whole thing memorized at one point. So sue me! It's good Sci-fi!

No, that's the one with Tasha and the 1701-C. It's "Cause and Effect", although you're correct that it was a good episode and that he had about two lines.

43625.2 is the stardate for Yesterday's Enterprise, according to Memory Alpha. Cause and Effect is 45652.1.

Oh, Heaven save me, yes! What was I thinking. Data's poker game.

Ach! That was a big brain fart. I know several people back in the day who would never forgive me if they knew I said that.
