RIP Mr. Nimoy.  I commend your soul to God and ask His Holy Spirit for his family.  May they know peace, comfort, and solace in this, their time of need.

I am so sorry. RIP. My first exposure to Leonard Nimoy was In Search Of when I was around 5 years old...it creeped me the hell out, in a good way, and led to a fascination in the macabre that I still have. Thank you Leonard Nimoy.

I loved In Search Of. I had forgotten about it until now. Thanks for the reminder, Gus.

I hadn't really thought about how it shaped me until now, but it did.

In Search Of and Unsolved Mysteries were two of my favorites. Good stuff.

The WaPo had a nice obit on him and mentioned In Search Of. Apparently it ran for six years - I didn't realize it was that long. http://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/leonard-nimoy-a-pop-culture-force-as-spock-of-star-trek/2015/02/27/20867702-bea4-11e4-8668-4e7ba8439ca6_story.html?wpisrc=al_alert

And if y'all don't mind (I normally don't do this, but LNL isn't exactly a competitor's site but rather complementary) I'll share a link to my own obit: http://forums.lnlpublishing.com/xz-articles/leonard-nimoy-passes.23/

+1 on In Search Of...my dad loved that show.

That, and late Saturday nights involving SNL with the old school crew and then immediately afterwards, an episode of ST: TOS. Those were the days.

It was Honeymooners, then Start Trek: the Original Series, then the original Twilight Zone for me.  Good times.

Ran across this commercial this evening. Brought a nice chuckle.

Ive always liked that one.
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.

Cool. If only he had done the Vulcan salute correctly. Sorry, it's the inner-nerd in me.  :P
