Life is like a Star Trek episode

Charlie reminded me that Voyager reached the end of our solar system and is about to venture into deep space. It was long trip. It started from Earth in 1977.

I suppose Charlie and I aren't the only ones who thought of the Star Trek villain V'ger when we read the news. Which led to a discussion at his place about who are the best Star Trek villians ever.

My personal favorites are Q. Amusing, charming in a fiendish way yet somehow childlike and vulnerable, always seeking approval. Second is Kahn because Ricardo Montalban. Love him in everything. Third, not technically villains but they did present a danger to the ship -- Tribbles. For the obvious reason. [More posts daily at the Detroit News.]
