Leonard Nimoy has just died. It's actually the second time Spock has died, the first being in The Wrath of Khan in 1982. He lived long and prospered. RIP please log in to view this image
That's illogical. Surely he's just beamed up to the land of the split infinitive. Anyway, it's a shock. Even my phaser's stunned.
The last thing Leonard tweeted. A fitting epitaph. Leonard Nimoy @TheRealNimoy Feb 23 A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP
He had been struggling with COPD for a few years after being a heavy smoker earlier in life. He had a spell in hospital last year and looked extremely frail in a wheelchair when they eventually let him home.
Kirk: We are assembled here today to pay final respects to our honored dead. And yet it should be noted that in the midst of our sorrow, this death takes place in the shadow of new life, the sunrise of a new world; a world that our beloved comrade gave his life to protect and nourish. He did not feel this sacrifice a vain or empty one, and we will not debate his profound wisdom at these proceedings. Of my friend, I can only say this: of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most... human.
Perhaps if he'd eaten meat and other products of animal derivation? Anyways, RIP you man of many talents, you.
