FArFri 1/13/14 — Orgy of Tribbles by Sara Manca (heiligerShadowfax)

laocoon_orgy_of_tribbles_by_heiligershadowfax-d4bt2dlThe Enterprise Crew can’t catch a break with all those Tribbles in this delightful piece by Sara Manca  (heiligerShadowfax on DeviantArt)  I think that’s McCoy’s arm!

Hello Everyone! Welcome to Newbies!

oh myWell, well, it seems my viewership here has grown exponentially since yesterday!  I just want to take a moment to say Hi and thanks to all my new subscribers and for your wonderful comments here!

I started this blog in 2011, and have filled it with my clippings, anecdotes and art related to the original series of Star Trek.  So far I have posted entries from my three original Star Trek scrapbooks (hence the blog title) that I collected in the 1970’s.  I do have a fourth scrapbook somewhere but haven’t found it yet!  You may have noticed that my blog is somewhat Spock/Nimoy centric 😉 , since I’ve been in love with the man for 40 years now!  I hope you’re enjoying it and I hope you will explore the many different categories. I am especially fond of my original ‘StarTreKomics‘ that I post from time to time, and I also have been working on a series of Star Trek Posters that present the original 79 episodes as old style movie posters, among other things.  There is also ‘My Weekly Spock’ segment every Monday that presents one or  photos of Nimoy as Spock, himself, or as the many other characters he’s played. (for more pics, see my original version ‘My Daily Spock‘)  Often on Wednesdays I have Wideo Wednesday where I post a fun video of whatever strikes my fancy (sometimes Trek) Every Friday I have FArFri, which stands for ‘Fan Art Friday’ where I  showcase the unique and marvelous Star Trek art I have found on the net.

Of course I have many interests outside of Star Trek, (see categories on right) and they get mentioned here from time to time. If you should need any more info about me, just click on the “ABOUT” link at the top of the page. (where you’ll see a silly 20 year old picture of me in my home-made Trek uniform!) If needed, you can also Contact me here.  Keep those cards comments and letters e-mails coming!

BTW, I produce this blog in the most old fashioned of ways — on my Desktop Computer with an old IBM keyboard!  I have a fun time  posting and creating, and nice way to say “Hi!” to Trek fans from all over.  Of course, I don’t post every day, and am very busy with my work and family, but if I can bring a little smile to you, my work is done!  Knowing that anyone even reads this is a pleasure to me, Enjoy, and I wish you all Peace and Long Life! -Therese 🙂

Actress, Trek Guest Star, Sarah Marshall (Dr. Janet Wallace) Passes

I just read that actress Sarah Marshall passed away on January 18th.  Trekkies remember her as Dr. Janet Wallace in the Star Trek episode The Deadly Years. Another of her famous roles was as the mother in the classic, suspenseful Twilight Zone episode “Little Girl Lost”Born in Britain, Ms. Wallace made her film debut in The Long Hot Summer.  As Janet Wallace on Trek, she flirted and fretted over the rapidly aging Captain Kirk, and I admire her for wearing what have been an awfully uncomfortable burlap pink and yellow pantsuit in that episode!

Alas, she was only 80, and sadly died from stomach cancer. She’s survived by her husband and son.  May she rest in peace.   l leave you with these stills of this lovely actress.

FArFri – Real Men Fear Not-by shazam26

Kirk__Spock__McCoy___REAL_MEN_by_shazam26I thought this was pretty funny — See, even the Enterprise Men need a little sprucing up in the morning to retain their fabulous-ness!   As the artist describes on DeviantArt:

“Real men fear NOTHING.NOT EVEN PRETTINESS.

Ehem.
Ihavewantedtodothisforfartoolong.

(The boys of the Enterprise would like to offer a friendly reminder: that although they get up rather early in the morning to perfect their hairstyles, get on their make up, and enjoy their share of flamboyant attire, they’ll still boss you around, make you feel supid and then kick your ass- be it a spine punch, a neck pinch… or a good old fashioned hypo. You have been warned.”

This also reminds me of a scene from a famous blooper reel where De, Bill, Leonard and James pretended to shave with their phasers!  Have a nice weekend , Everyone!
