Leonard Nimoy Day!
Today would have been Leonard Nimoy's 90 birthday. Since I’m a long time Star Trek fan, I found this interesting.

Since I stopped my newspaper subscription years ago, I failed to notice William Shatners bday this past Monday. I can only hope that when I’m his age (also 90) that I have half his energy!!
Before anyone says anything, I bought my first house at age 20, and my parents didn’t have a basement!!!

Anyone remember the Priceline commercials where William Shatner plays Kaley Couco father? Good Lord, he has worked with some smoking hot women in his career!

When Leonard Nimoy died, a local radio show had a call-in contest. They played a Mr. Spock quote from one of the Star Trek movies. Whoever called in and identified the correct movie won the prize. A woman called in and excitedly said "Star Trek eye-vee!" (for Star Trek IV). I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

A good Spock exchange was the following from a TOS episode.
SCOTT: Mister Spock, the Captain, Lieutenant Uhura, and Chekov. they vanished. They got onto the transporter platform and they just vanished.
[Bridge]
SPOCK: I presume you mean they vanished in a manner not consistent with the usual workings of the transporter, Mister Scott.
[Transporter room]
SCOTT: Aye, of course I mean that. You think I'd call if they just beamed down?
