We've been watching the reruns nightly on TBS. So cool to have such witty (and geek-filled) writing. And, of course, Jim Parsons is an incredibly agile comic. Unfortunately, this most recent season has a bit too much "lower body functions" humor. Wish the writers would get on with other things. The Tiny Spock episode was amusing, but not as well-written as others. Clearly Nimoy is having a blast, though!J.A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17716960326168886178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897251519490477449.post-89948060549806103672012-03-31T03:30:28.474-05:002012-03-31T03:30:28.474-05:00Awesome post!

It' fun and as a bonus we get a better idea of what's going through our kids' heads.<br /><br />I don't want to create another slippery slope for you, but space ephemera is pretty cool and readily available. In the meantime, check out the great stuff on the dreams of space blog linked above.<br /><br />One place I need to avoid is World's Fair memorabilia. Check out the Democracity designed by the industrial designer who redesigned the Royal QDL, Henry Dreyfuss.Dwayne F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07032059161503386028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897251519490477449.post-67236576824944020902012-03-30T22:55:54.893-05:002012-03-30T22:55:54.893-05:00Thanks!

Those photos, covers and stamps bring back fond memories of my childhood from Alan Sheppard to the final moon flight and now the last shuttle.<br /><br />Too bad Nixon killed the space program and the rest of the politicians since have not had the sense and courage to revive it. <br /><br />Thanks for the great post.Bill Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649212489891769390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897251519490477449.post-61156459731412108562012-03-30T16:45:34.584-05:002012-03-30T16:45:34.584-05:00Space - the final frontier...

We call ourselves Apollo-NASA babies here; both of us remember being allowed to stay up to watch Armstrong, Aldrin, & Collins when they landed on the moon. I have a small space shuttle toy - came with astronauts but I seem to have lost those in one of the moves! (Still have my Spock figurine, though - the "Tiny Spock" model shown on The Big Bang Theory last night!)J.A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17716960326168886178noreply@blogger.com
