A banjo? Really? :)

Having met Mr. Nimoy and experienced his whit and charm, he'd probably get a kick out of the picture above. He was an incredible individual of the finest character and will always be remembered; and sorely missed!

I love the Bangles and hadn't heard this and it knocked me out.
Makes me want to walk like an Egyptian again. Nimoy was too cool. Thx.

Edited to say: sorry Donna, seriously, I thought we were in music. :|
What can I say, he was loved.

Are you guys out of your 'vulcan minds?

I love banjo!!!

Spock will always be there.

He was in the last Transformers 3 Dark of the Moon episode as Sentinel Prime and in a newer Trek episode as again, " Spock Prime."

His In Search Of episodes bring to mind his going boldly where no man has gone before.

Mission Impossible would not be possible without Spock taking over for Landau.

I did a movie with the actor who played his father Sarek, in the original TV episodes, Mark Lenard. The classic Sarek.

Guess we expected Leonard to be a true alien and live for hundreds of years.

He's in our hearts and minds!

Meanwhile Denny Crane Shatner is purported to be wanting to be following Ray Kurzweil on life extension ready for that singularity.

Geek to the core, I attended one of the 1st Star Trek conventions in San Francisco.
Saw George, Mr. Sulu.

Scotty is now dust around the Van Allen belt and has reincarnated as Graeme Willy.

Get down!!!

Admiral Pike gets killed by Khan.

New Khan could give a hoot about Corinthian leather.

New Spock is now The Fonz and dating Uhura.

Kirk's dad is now Thor!

Chekov got geekier and worse at English "weektur weektur."

Bones got more experimental and a germaphobe.

And Mr. Sulu is now Korean hanging with Kumar.

Godspeed Leonard Nimoy and thank you for you!

LLAP!!!
