Scotty beamed up, at last

CNN.com – James Doohan, ‘Star Trek’s’ Scotty, dead – Jul 20, 2005

You knew it was going to happen eventually. He was, after all, the chief red shirt.

(I’m going to hell for that, but I’ll bet he’d laugh.)

    I bet he’d laugh, too, and I know I sure am laughing now…. I hadn’t thought about that “Red Shirt” thing. 🙂

    I was asking Jenni who ought to be next in the Star Trek dead pool. (So I’m going to hell right along with you.) She asked if Ricardo would count, and I figgered he’d have to get at least an honorary inclusion. Which leads, of course, to….

    “Kaaaaaaaahhhhhhhnnnnnnnn.”

    Have those kids of yours gotten up to speed on that yet?

    Sorry. I’ll go away now.

    I bet he would have a chuckle at that as well. Star Trek dead pool, eh? Sick, just sick. Ok… you did NOT hear me laugh. No way.

    He *so* would laugh! (And, thanks for making me smile about this.)

    Rather strange karma thing yesterday…

    Somehow, out of the huge pile of t-shirts that my wife and I have, she somehow decided to pull the one with Doohan on it (out of the middle of the pile) to wear yesterday. With no knowledge whatsoever of his passing.

    Always strange hereabouts.

    Not to mention the fact that it was the anniversary of the first moon landing…
