Let’s remember and celebrate the life of Leonard Nimoy (Mar 26
in an Irish section of the West End of Boston
Best known for his iconic role as Spock in the Star Trek franchise
Nimoy died at the age of 83 of complications from COPD (a condition he attributed to a smoking addiction he had quit about 30 years earlier)
when the creator and cast members of Star Trek attended the September 1976 rollout of space shuttle Enterprise at the Rockwell International manufacturing plant in Palmdale
with top notch experts and scientists leading the U.S
boldly going when no human had gone before
who are hell bent on destroying the agency and exterminating the practice of science from our society
Did you know that in 2021, the city of Boston, where Nimoy has his roots, declared March 26 as “Leonard Nimoy Day?” trekmovie.com/...
including I Am Not Spock (1975) and I Am Spock (1995)
In the 2nd book, he wrote that "he finally realized his years of portraying the Spock character had led to a much greater identification between the fictional character and himself. Nimoy maintained that in some meaningful sense he had merged with Spock while distancing between fact and fiction." en.wikipedia.org/...
In 1981, Nimoy starred in Vincent, a one-man show which he wrote, directed and produced. It was based on the life of artist Vincent van Gogh, in which Nimoy played Van Gogh's brother Theo. store.bizbooks.net/...
which are very relevant in these trying times of “illogic and foolish emotions” in MAGA world -
In these trying times with the MAGA invasion of out nation
it’s good to take some time off from the news and contemplate on the good that resides in all of us
draw inspiration from others and determine how we can channel our energy and our logic to fight the Romulans and to preserve Democracy
