I knew him as Spock and the host and narrator from In Search Of. I got to hear him speak at a convention once and he just seemed like a really great guy. I remember him telling a story about William Shatner pranking him on the set of Star Trek by hiding his bike, I think it was. It came across that he kind of thought Shatner was, at best, really annoying. Some of you a bit older yet than I might also remember Nimoy as the character Paris from Mission Impossible. Before the internet and access to most any song you want, I went in search of the Mission Impossible theme song; ended up buying an album by Nimoy entitled "Mr. Spock's Songs from Outer Space" with him in costume as Spock on the cover. The theme song was Nimoy playing folk guitar. 😉 I still have it sitting around the house.
You will be missed Leonard Nimoy. I fully expect #thebigbangtheory to do a tribute episode.?
