My daughter just informed me of that.

Live long and prosper.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

RIP Leonard Nimoy....

You created one of the most beloved and recognized characters ever found in science fiction and you lived your life with class and good humor. Because of you, I spent hours as a boy learning to do the Vulcan salute, then followed you again into space through the many Star Trek movies. I got misty-eyed when you saved the Enterprise in Star Trek II and some of the phrases Mr. Spock uttered became a part of modern folklore. You entertained, inspired many and became an enduring symbol of science fiction. The world is made a little less by your passing, the stars made a little brighter.

Very, very sad. May sound corny but I wouldn't be who I am today without TOS. Rest in peace Mr. Nimoy.  :'(

Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

I feared this was coming. Very sad news.

I had the good fortune of seeing him speak in person when I was in high school. It was a genuine high point of my youth.

Condolences to his loved ones. RIP.

Rest in peace, Mr. Spock.  :(
Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.

His work here is done... one more to beam up.
