My Weekly Spock: Rare TOS Publicity Photos

I’m always happy to find publicity photos for original Trek episodes.  Recently I came across a few I had never seen before!  It makes me wonder if there were publicity pictures for every episode made? (Wouldn’t that be great?)  Well, I’ll keep searching! Here’s some fun ones for now from This Side of Paradise,  Mudd’s Women, and Spectre of the Gun!  I find the Mudd’s Women’s ones especially funny!

“It Must Be a Trekkie in That Car!” My Trek Car Family Decals

Hey Kids,

I’m sure you’ve seen many ‘family’ decals on the backs of mini-vans; you know the ones with a Mom, Dad, Kids, baby, dog cat, etc…  I had avoided getting anything like these until now when I bought these recently at thinkgeek.com.  I guess I just couldn’t resist them!  Of course. I’m the Rom-Com married to Mr. Spock with our two little Spocks!  However, if this was physically accurate, all three Spocks would tower over me! Oddly, the Rom-Com seems a tad taller than her Spock, but maybe it’s the hair!

These come in several sheets with all different Trek characters on them, including Crew, The Gorn, Isis, and even a Tribble to represent whatever pet you have! I still have a bunch of these I’m not using, so maybe I’ll pass them out to family members.  (My brother would make a fine Klingon!)   I just wonder if modern eyes will know the references?

Here they are on the back of my car: IMG_2494

And here’s the real deal… 🙂

And here’s all the characters (you get doubles of the little ones), they’re on sale for $12.99 at thinkgeek.com.    You can also get coupons for ThinkGeek here: :  http://verified.codes/ThinkGeek

My Weekly Spock: Camelot Cassanova

I just came across these great pics of Leonard during his time playing King Arthur in Camelot (1973).  Wish I could have seen this !  A classmate of mine back in 7th grade did see Nimoy in this show in Massachussetts — I was so jealous!  Love the alternate universe-ish goatee! (but real this time!)

I know we can help Celeste battle and win against this hellish ailment. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could reach the goal in 12 days?  Thanks to you All! We love you Celeste! And Pass it on!

#64 ‘The Tholian Web’

Here’s my latest poster! I wonder if the cast enjoyed filming an episode that was 90% Kirk-Free?  Good drama here 🙂

Darn that Groundhog…

If I understand correctly, Punxscatawney Phil saw his shadow again so it’s six more weeks of winter…as long as it’s not six months!   Here’s a chestnut from a few years ago… 😉

Ground Hog Day

Snow Day!

Well, last week was that big storm in the northeast, but it mostly skirted my area — but today?  Snow Day! We had about 8-10 inches of snow.   It was pretty fluffy outside this morning and now the snow is settling down, but it’s Freezing! Currently 12F but the windchill makes it feel like -10F.  Eeek! Glad I didn’t have work today and that the kids were off!

Celeste Update 2/2/15 – A Good Start!

Hey Kids,

Here’s this week’s update for Celeste Yanall’s cancer fund.  As of this writing, the fund has received $9,701,  $6,000 of which achieved the  first goal of having enough money to bank some of her tumor for future therapy.   It’s a good start,  but alas, it is only about 1/20th of the full amount needed ($50,00).  Please consider donating any amount you can to help Celeste on this difficult journey– She is so thankful and appreciative of all of her fans who are helping, and for all your prayers and support!   We’re here for you Celeste!

You can read more about Celeste and donate here.
