Koohii Story 1 (re: wazzab) The state of mind of the people of New Orleans as they examined their city´s concert hall laid waste can best described as disconcerted.
Koohii Story 2 Data walks in and sees Picard weeping. "What is the matter, Captain?" Picard looks up, and replies that his entire home planet has been laid to waste. Data, the master of tact, offers up this consolation: "Ah. I can see how that would be DISCONCERTing". It turns out that the flow of tears was really just because Picard had lost his chance at getting at some rare (and thus valuable) flowers on his home planet.
