BEST OF BOTH WORLDS

I have been exercising lately on the elliptical machine, either at home or on the road. And I have been watching the entire run of Star Trek The Next Generation starting with season 1.  Currently I am already watching season 4. I was 'concerned' when I first started watching season 1 as, I had remembered this being a great TV show.  That first season just didn't have it.  As I continued through to season 3, my memory of this being a good TV show was rewarded. I am really enjoying watching these episodes again, many for only the second time.  I usually have forgotten how they ended or what the particular mystery of the show was and I am finding them very engaging. Did I mention that I am predisposed to like Star Trek? My easiest exercise session was when my 90 minutes included the final show of season 3 (Best of Both Worlds)  When part 1 of this episode first aired originally, it had  an amazing cliffhanger.  I remember so well the 'torture' the viewers were put through as we had to wait, three months,  all summer for the conclusion nearly 20 years ago.  This was the episoode when Captain Picard had been taken over by the Borg and the Borg Cube was headed to Earth to destroy it.  It looked bad for the Federation. But we survived.

Right now things are starting to look bad for civilization here in the real world.  Terrorists around the world are striking more and more often. They, too, must think that our resistance is futile. I remain the kind of person that thinks that good will eventually triumph over evil.

This quote is from the Star Trek movie, First Contact.  It almost seems that it could have been written by ISIS. Certainly, the sentiment is similar.

"We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile.".

One thing is sadly certain, this is going to be a long fight.
