Does Mercedes stand behind its brand? When we pay more for luxury cars, does that translate to a guarantee of safety? Are the car makers’ promises guaranteed? Or, is the safety mirage a well spun marketing campaign? Sadly, the answer came to me first hand, and I am making this post because I am almost […]
YouTube links to short animated videos using prototypes of Randa Handler’s children’s book characters Cubbie Blue & his Dog Dot; Dot loves school, he can’t wait to hop into Derek’s backpack and keeps asking, ‘Is it school time yet?’
In today’s hurried society, taking a moment to thank someone for their friendship is special and deserving a shout out. It’s really cool for William Shatner to take time and pen “Leonard, My Fifty-Year Friendship With A Remarkable Man.” Shatner was very kind to me when I was a rookie journalist and I will never forget that!
I’m sure Shatner’s recollections will be of interest to everyone and not just Star Trek fans as they’re peppered with wit and humor. Nimoy was a complex man and talent but seems to be mainly remembered as Mr. Spock. He was a seasoned actor, a noted film director and an accomplished photographer. It’s not surprising that Nimoy called both his autobiographies, I Am Not Spock to try and shed a light on the other aspects of his life. But, like in 1988 when an asteroid was named 4864 Nimoy in his honor, hopefully this book will pay a tribute to the Man behind Mr. Spock not just the actor!
Despite what was written and said about Shatner and Nimoy and their friendships or feuds, this book is a beautiful tribute! And, it’s refreshing for one of them to thank and appreciate the other. They are both legends of film and television, and it’s wonderful for such a positive imprint to be left in publishing. There are no misunderstandings to be had, the title says it all! It’s about the fifty year friendship of a remarkable man!
And, here’s wishing for “Leonard” to climb to bestseller!
