Happy Birthday Leonard Nimoy


















Today marks Leonard Nimoy's 78th birthday. Assuredly, there are other roles he has played bsides Mr. Spock, but.......well, we can't think of any. There was that western, but........yeah, I can't remember the title either.

A lot of celebrities are having birthdays today including Keira Knightley (24), Jennifer Grey (49), Martin Short (59), Diana Ross (65) and Alan Arkin (75).

Please remember that Nimoy had a lead in Philip Kaufman's creepy 1970s redux of INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS. And who could forget his voiceovers for "In Search Of..."! He had a burgeoning directing career in the 80s, but I guessed that dried up.

Wish I still had my Mego superhero action figures; worth more than a few bucks now!

I just remembered that my brother had a Star Trek playset during our childhoods, but I don't think he owned all the figures.

Yes, I remember "Invasion..." and "In Search of....," but come on, 99 percent of the world sees him as spock. I imagine that's quite irritating!
