I know and have known a few of the Star Trek cast, and every ‘inside’ story I’ve heard about him is a good story. Talented, multi-talented, and general nice person. He worked as an actor right down to his final years, and proved he could play all...

Just deactivated my Twitter account. Damned thing was echoing. My fault. Anyway, say that I’m now on my third order for the same computer with Dell, and they are continuing to screw up.
