They’re lying about his cause of death.

We all know it was a Warp Core Breach.

RIP Mr. Nimoy.

RIP Mr. Nimoy.

He seemed like a good guy who didn't take himself too seriously despite all of his success.

I listen to old “In Search Of” episodes to go sleep, as the news and talk radio often get me so agitated. RIP

Leonard was Jewish so this must please Obama to no end.

Must we politicize everything?

One of the best TV characters ever created. Mr. Nimoy went beyond that and did indeed live long and prosper. RIP
