The ‘new’ Spock is gay. Nimoy, to my understanding, is not. Married, children, etc. If he ‘came out’ during a roast, it may have been a gag. George Takei came out as gay, so maybe they thought it would be funny if Nimoy did as well.

To really savor a bad vocal performance try and find the Carl Sandberg Sings LP records. They are in a league of their own.

Wonder if he’s still taking pictures of morbidly obese naked women......

He appeared briefly in one of the original Dragnet shows back in the '50s:

He was a really good actor. Consider that in real life he is an illogical, emotional, libtard idiot but he portrayed a calm, logical, rational scientist type. Too bad some of the Spock character didn’t wear off on him.

I think you must be mistaken.

But that is the way liberals think of themselves. They actually believe their authoritarian views Are the Vulcan logic. They live in a Star Trek universe.

One World Govt. No private money or weapons, etc.

Gene Roddenberry’s SFB Utopia was a totalitarian nightmare dressed up in Ringling Bros clown paint.

If you are into musical self-immolation, this album is a must-have.

That must be news to his current wife, you sure you’re not thinking of George Takei (Sulu)?

"Penny" is always confused by Star Trek & Star Wars!

I don't think she was talking about the new Spock, Zachary Quinto, who is openly gay.

And I remember him as the guilty guy on an episode of Perry Mason.

GLAD to see Nimoy in the latest Trek, even on oxygen he was better than Quinto!
