[net.tv] Dr. Smith

I saw Dr. Smith on Twilight Zone last night.  He was a lawyer.  He was
advising his client against making a $500,000 bet that a fellow member of
their club could not remain silent for a year.  His client didn't take his
advice, the other guy one the bet, and the client didn't have the money to
pay off.  Dr. Smith was disgusted.  This is, no doubt, why he changed
occupations, became neurotic, and wound up lost in space. :-)

To top it off, Dr. Smith was also on another Twilight Zone playing a
doctor of a woman who had recurring dreams about being in a morgue. He
advised her she was nuts and the dreams were meaningless. When the dream
trurned out to be a premonition, Dr. Smith became disgusted and must
have turned to practicing law. :-)

After Dr. Smith was lost in space, he must have even become more
disgusted, 'cause he left his body and jumped into the body of Lucifer,
the Cylon series I robot appointed by the Cylon Imperious Leader (ha ha)
to destroy the Battlestar Galactica.  Tough luck, though, 'cause after a
while Baltar was running the base ship.
