Favorite episode? Mine's still The Trouble With Tribbles

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

I like the one with the Coms and the Yangs (Communists and Yanks). I also like Frank Gorshin in "Let that be your last battlefield" where the two guys with black and white faces were chasing each other. A subtle dig at those who feel superior because of skin color during a tumultuous time in the Civil Rights era.

I still like watching the original re-runs. Tonite was the time travel episode where they sling-shotted around the Sun to go back in time. LOL I met Scottie the Engineer once at a star trek show in Boston.

If you want to be, press one. If you want not to be, press 2

Republicans are red, democrats are blue, neither of them, gives a flip about you.

THANKS SC for the tidbit of information...it's always cool to know the "back story" on something.

So I have to ask the question....am I the ONLY one that can NOT manage to "sign" with either
hand.....seems only my LEFT hand and fingers can accomplish "live long and prosper"???
