When I was in college, one of my favorite things to do in the evening was to watch the original episodes of Star Trek with my friends.
I wasn’t an avid Trekkie
, but loved watching the show with people who memorized the dialog and would point out details about each scene.
And when the Star Trek movies came out, I was one of the fans who saw the movies the first week they came to our local theaters.
Like others who followed the Star Trek show and movies, I was sad to hear the news yesterday that Leonard Nimoy died at the age of 83. He will be missed. Live long and prosper.
His last tweet:
