*sniffles* I, being a tried and true Trekkie do hereby call today a day of mourning in my household. Mr. James Doohan better known as Mr. Scott or Scotty from ALL the Star Treks (the ones I liked that is) died. Awww!!!!
A man you could admire, a man that could fix a billion dollar starship with duct tape, baling wire and a phillip's head screwdriver. The last of the great fixit men. Scotty was the hero of shop nerds everywhere, if there is such a thing, I loved the accent, and the attitude.
Tonight, I'll go out and look at the stars and wonder if maybe, just maybe, he finally
Explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and dare I say it? yes, I will but I am sniffling... Boldly go where no man has gone before.
The heck with Star Wars, I AM HAVING A STAR TREK MARATHON TONIGHT! And if that traitor hubby aka the jawa lover don't like it, he can be de-space balled!
Hats off for Mr. Doohan, Scotty, you were the best.

I wasn't a big original Trek fan but I did like him. And yes, "I'm giving her I can, Captain," will always be a great line.
I sniffle with you.
I know! And and, well, he and Uhura had it goin on in later movies, NOT Kirk.. *sniffs* The woman showed great taste and distinction in her choice of men.
;-( This is very sad news. I loved the old Star Trek and movies. I used to listen to them with my Dad who is true Trekkie. He's watched ALL the spin-offs.
*Sad sigh*
