My Weekly Spock – Piping Hot

Yes, smoking is bad for you, but he just looks so delightfully Sherlock-y here!  These are in black and white, but that’s the same light blue top he wore at the space shuttle Enterprise’s unveiling! (see color detail below)

Remember when men wore  watches that were just... watches? Simpler days...

My Weekly Spock: Leonard the Bird Man with Phyllis Diller

When opportunity knocks, one answers — and Leonard even guested on comedienne Phyllis Diller’s The Beautiful Phyllis Diller Show  – This takes guts – but looks like he had a swell time!  It only ran one season but I wonder if there’s video of this anywhere?   I’ve seen some other pictures with Leonard on this show, but they’re buried in an old LNAF yearbook that I have to look up!   I’ll show them eventually!  Enjoy!

My Weekly Spock: More Fun Promos – Amok Time!

Some more fun promo and behind-the-scenes shots this week — this time from Amok Time.  Some of these I have never seen before, Like Spock and Kirk fighting in front of  T’Pring, and also the still of little bored T’Pring!  ( I love T’Pring’s huge sunburst ring too.

I think Amok Time is in most Trekkies top 10 lists.  Where does it rank in yours?

And if you haven’t seen it yet, be sure to check out the Spock/Nimoy tribute I made on YouTube; “Them There Eyes”:

My New Spock Video! “Them There Eyes” – In Honor of Leonard Nimoy 1931-2015

Hey Kids!

I’ve have had an idea to make a Spock/Nimoy tribute for a long time! (long before he passed).  When I first heard this song by the great Billie Holiday, I thought it would be perfect backdrop for Spock’s beautiful brown eyes.  I’ve combined clips of Mr. Nimoy as Spock and as Paris to make this little tribute. I hope it will bring joy to all who loved him.

It’s called Them There Eyes – In Honor of Leonard Nimoy 1931-2015.                 Enjoy, Thank you!

My Weekly Spock: Chess; On Screen and Off

(Sorry I’m so late today — had a busy day between work and  errands!)

Well, after all these years, I haven’t figured out how 3-D chess works, but it’s nice to know that Mr. Nimoy enjoyed an occasional game of chess like I do!

When’s the last time anyone here has played chess?  I love playing it with my sons — dig out the board sometime and see if you still got your winning moves!

My Weekly Spock: Like Great Grandfather, Like Great Grandson

Leonard with great grandson Charlie Pearson in 2011. (Aww!)

I loved this photo of Mr. Nimoy (in 2011) with his  great grandson Charlie Pearson that was featured People.com when Nimoy died.  But what struck me the most was how much this little guy resembles his Great ‘Poppi’ as a child! (the eyes, the ears, the smile!) Charlie is Adam’s grandson and truly that apple didn’t fall  far from the tree! Sweet little fellow!

My Weekly Spock: Convention Time!

 I found some pictures taken at a Trek convention in the early 70’s – (1973 or ’74?) Good old days! (And the blue Denim suit that keeps on giving!)

Adam with Dad Leonard in the late 60’s

Adam Nimoy’s Kickstarter fund to make the documentary about his Dad Leonard Nimoy and Mister Spock is coming down the wire!

At this writing, the fund is at $537,454.  The Goal is $600,000 and it has to be made by July 1st!  Adam must raise $62,546 within the next 60 hours, not a penny less, or he will lose ALL of his funds pledged so far to make this labor of love.

I made my contribution and I wish I could send more, but I’m hoping that EVERYONE who reads this will contribute whatever they can, for this will be a very special and wonderful documentary, or should I say  ‘Spockumentary’!!

Please donate whatever you can before the deadline of July 1st.  Thanks so much!

My Weekly Spock: Happily Ever After-ing in Camelot

I found this great still from the 1973 stage version of Camelot.  I bet it was lovely (if heartbreaking for King Arthur)
