Congrats to him. Nice to be honored by your home town. But he and Star Trek have been a world wide phenomenon for many years now. It’s taken this long for them to recognize and reward him?!

Congrats. I live just a ferry ride and a drive from where “Fringe” is filmed:) If I go to Boston I’ll be sure to see all the Nimoy-related sights!

Hey, I lived around the corner from Nimoy in the old West End. He got his start in the acting classes at the Peabody House near the Charles River. The Peabody House was one of several “neighborhood” houses throughout Boston where city kids could take free classes in the arts. I didn’t take acting with Nimoy, I took ballet. But, although he was one of the neighbor kids, he was seldom around and he was not easy to know then, kind of distant, in fact he had a Dr. Spock personality when he was ten. But, I’m proud to have known him, a little, and to have experienced the same Boston influences he did. And I share his nostalgia about growning up in the the old West End.

Let’s face it… Star Trek returned not in response to two wars. It returned to make money.

End of story.

Walter Winchell: On the night of Stardate 4353.9 Jimmy ‘T-Bone’ Koik and his band of Entouchables plot to wipe out a rival gang, The Klingons. They rendevous at the ware-base with the USS Hoods.

Koik: Legs, get me Commodore Tony ‘Pretty Boy’ Pascale on da blower.

Uhura: Yes, boss. Uh, sir.

Koik: Commodore. I am ingratiated to communicatize wit youze. Would you care to beam aboard to my humble starship?

Anthony: Why are you talking like that? Uh, yes, beam me to your bridge.

(Anthony materializes by the turbolift.)

Koik: Com Tony, welcome. I have called youze here to discuss a troubling matter. The Klingons have been disrespecting our cargo freighters… by blowing dem up and stealing the Armani crystals inside. Perhaps, if you saw fit to loan us some extra photon torpedoes, we could take care of this troubling situation. I would of course, be prepared to repay this favor sometime in the future.

Anthony: Again with the stereotypical Mafioso speech. That wasn’t very convincing on The Untouchables, and it’s not even close to being good enough in the Sopranos age. Not only that – (Anthony stumbles down the bridge steps and lands in Koik’s lap.)

JJ: Cut!

Anthony: (pulling his face out of Koik’s crotch) Was I all right, Mr. Abrams? Do you want me to do another take?

JJ: No, we’ll just CGI in something horrible that looks like a hernia, then throw in a few lens flares and cover it with epic theme music. That’s a take! Moving on!

Leonard Nimoy: This will not go over well in Boston.

And in honor of Leonard Nimoy Day, the next movie will have his character of Spock Prime join Kirk Prime to go back in time to save the planet Vulcan from it’s destruction in true Star Trek form :o)
