He's dead, Jim!
That was a great scene and the bagpipes were very moving--
He was incredible, and I owned an 80-something Plymouth Reliant--
No cop will ever ticket one of them--![]()

It would have been funny if they pulled one over and saw that Ricardo Montalban was driving!![]()
Personal story: that scene, along with the slugs coming out of Chekov's ear scared the crap out of me and gave me nightmares for MONTHS. I couldn't fall asleep the night I saw the scene where they sent Spock off, and for a good year I couldn't look at a Plymouth Reliant K whenever we passed one on the road. It reminded me of the USS Reliant.
In my defense, I was 8 when the movie came out!
Anyway, Great great man, Nimoy. If you get a chance to find his memoir, read it. His tale of barely making it out of the Holocaust is stuttering.

That was so inappropriate. I couldn't stop laughing. I'm still laughing a little.
Also very sad here.
It has to be said - he died from COPD, and he was a smoker for 30 years, and he only recently quit from what I've read.
Don't smoke.

Don't smoke.
i didn't want to mention it, but i can definitely see him doing one of those yul brynner posthumous "don't smoke" psas. Those did hit home after brynner died in the 80s.

"I quit smoking 30 yrs ago. Not soon enough. I have COPD. Grandpa says, quit now!! LLAP," the living legend tweeted, adding his signature abbreviation for the half-Vulcan's "live long and prosper" motto.
