Just heard on the BBC News that Leonard Nimoy died today at age 83. Here's to you, Mr. Spock, with your big ears and "fascinating" comments. You brought much humor and wonder to the world.

I knew he'd gone into the hospital with severe chest pain, but I'd hoped he'd get better. Terribly sad to hear this.

Geoffrey . . . . . you avatar is particularly appropriate now.

I heard this on the radio in my car about an hour ago . . . . . had seen via George Takei's FB page that he'd gone in the hospital earlier in the week.

and merged the threads

Last time they thought Spock was dead it turned out he was on the Genesis planet . . . . . . .

Here's his final tweet, from Monday:

A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP

*LLAP is Live Long and Prosper . . . . . .

I just saw this. Very true:

Peace and Long Life

"I have been, and always shall be, your friend."  My favorite Spock quote.

Hugssss to all my fellow geeks.

I'm home early, and my Echo is playing my Leonard Nimoy music from this album:



Currently playing "Put a Little Love in Your Heart." Not musically great, but a good way to observe this sad day.

"Of my friend, I can only say this: Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the MOST human."

He will be sorely missed.
Rest in peace, Sir.
