Leonard Nimoy died yesterday, February 27. He died at age 83, so I believe we can say he lived long, and prospered.
In his words, "live long and prosper".

RIP, LLAP...Sorry I haven't been around much lately. I've been trying to follow all this with Leonard Nimoy over the past week since he went into the hospital...RIP, LLAP... by ToAtoneArt
The whole subject breaks my heart for a lot of personal and non-personal reasons. He stopped smoking thirty years ago; back when people were really first starting to realize how bad for their health smoking WAS. He tried. And even so, smoking still came up and killed him so long later... People, please; those of you out there who are smoking, take this as a big, fat warning, ne?
Also, who can deny the love that so many of us nerds, dorks, and geeks have for him. He was mother father Spock, for God's sakes--and so much more, as he made clear in his book "I am not Spock". He was a huge advocate for Gay Rights (George 'Mister Sulu' Takei and he were good friends), was actually a singer (shocked the shiz out of me)... Just so much stuff. To top all this off, one of his best friends, William Shatner, won't be able to be present for his funeral
In memory of Leonard Nimoy, who has always bee, and will always be Mr. Spock, even after the title has been passed on. |
I got this idea from a different group. If you visit, I'll invite you. Live long and prosper. |
