Today, Leonard Nimoy, only four days after fellow actor and friend William Shatner, celebrates his 80th birthday. We want to congratulate them both and thank them for years of entertainment, boldly going where no man had gone before as Mr. Spock and Captain James T. Kirk respectively, starting an era of Star Trek. May they both live long and prosper.
