Friday Stuff

RIP Leonard Nimoy – a lot more to this guy than just Spock, though he will always be remembered for that above all else, which is probably as it should be (please don’t smoke, people – find a way to stop somehow).

“This Side of Paradise” might be my favorite episode of the original “Star Trek” series (partly because Spock gets to knock Kirk around a bit :-), and this is probably the key moment of revelation between Nimoy and Jill Ireland – of all the clips of Nimoy that could be presented as a tribute, this is the one I personally prefer the most…



…and as usual, pop culture parody is the sincerest form of flattery…



...and by the way, we had great Net Neutrality news this week, though I'm sure the lawsuits from the usual corporate suspects will follow (video lags at end)...



…and kudos to Dem Senator Sheldon Whitehouse for this



...and sportscaster Dale Hansen does it again here - kudos as well...



…and I guess this video depicts just another Friday night for you millennial hipsters out there – I remember those days (sigh).
