celebrities passing away usually doesnt bother me.
but this is quite different.  like a beloved piece of a younger me being taken away or something.
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.

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.

What Steelgrave said.

Plus: I hope you died in a State of Grace and will be one with God's Peace and Mercy.

Martok

Reading the news of his death announced today was like a punch in the gut to me.  Even though I'd heard he was in the hospital (and was of course not a young man), it didn't seem possible that he would leave us just yet.  He will be sorely missed.  :'( 


RIP, Mr. Nimoy.  Thanks for all you did.  May your spirit rest easy on its journey to the final frontier.
