This is not how I wanted my birthday month AND this month of BaD to end. It was bad enough that we lost Monty Oum, of Dead Fantasy and RWBY fame, at the beginning of this month but now word of Leonard Nimoy's passing today is just too much for me to bear right now.

I will admit I am a trekker. Not as diehard as most but I pay respect to what was the TOS of Star Trek. I grew up with Star Trek, it was one of the first Sci-Fi shows my mother introduced me to, along with Doctor Who, when all we had to watch TV on was a 15" color. I even liked his character William Bell in the FOX Sci-Fi series Fringe.

Really there is nothing I can say that is already being said by those better or who are more passionate toward the man and his career. From the Ballet of Bilbo to others he's now being remembered and mourned. Even the wife of one of my coworkers is heartbroken.

I can't. I can't do this anymore. I held strong after Monty Oum's passing but Leonard Nimoy's is too much. I'm out.

BaD Thought of the day.

When I heard he had been rushed to hospital I feared the worst. This is indeed sad news.

I haven't seen all that much Trek stuff, but he did seem like a great man.

I'm sorry to hear that Sonic. I've only seen a few episodes of Star Trek, but always had respect for Leonard Nimoy. He will surely be missed by a lot of people.

I am a huge Trek fan and this is a big blow.  I'm really sad to see him go.

He lived a long time for a smoker. Will always love Nimoy!

I still haven't seen much of Star Trek, but I did knew Leonard and I thought he was a great man. Shame to see him pass away :(

This is very sad. Leonard Nimoy was like an institution. He will be greatly missed.

I was going over who's left of the TOS crew. We got Sulu, Checkov, Kirk, and Ohura still.
