May the Lord bless and keep you and may the Lord cause his countenance to shine upon you. May the Lord be gracious unto you and grant you peace. The accompanying spoken blessing, “Live long and prosper.”

Star Trek was just silly fun, but it was good silly fun. I grew up watching Star Trek and still watch the movies when they come out. Thanks for the entertainment and thanks for making being a nerd sort of cool. RIP Mr. Nimoy!!!

Live Long and Prosper happen to coincide with the first two liberties in the Declaration of INdependence: Life and Liberty.

Thank you Mister Nemoy.

I am watching “Amok time” right now on ME-TV.

Interestingly Capt. Kirk just mentioned they are heading to Altair 6. A shout out to “Forbidden Planet”?

You are missing a gem - and an eyeful of Sigourney Weaver: a take off on Star Trek and the Conventions.

and

Galaxy Quest was a comical spoof on Star Trek.

Some of the scenes from YouTube.
