I'm a bit late, i guess, but I'll say it anyway.
R.I.P., James Doohan.
My first crush is gone. I cried.
This made me smile again.

the words "Aye captain" and "Beam me up Scotty" will never sound the same again...

That is indeed sad news. The article was brilliant and moving. Thanks, Desert.

"Relics" just came on Spike TV. It's such a nostalgic episode, it made me a little weepy. And I'm about to watch "Trials and Tribble-lations", the DS9 episode. What a night.
I have to say I never was a big fan of the original series, but it was so legendary that I hardly had to wach it to know all the characters, and Scotty was one of the ones that stood out the most. James will be missed.

Me and a friend have this joke, it goes like this:
Me: Beam me up Scotty!
Other: Up Scotty's what!?!
That joke will never be the same again.

I sat up and watched those, too. Hell, "Relics" made me weepy before; I was a mess this time.
I was (and hell, still am) a huge fan of the original series, and have had very little interest in the ones that followed; there's a kind of hopefulness about it all that I don't think anything made now (ST or otherwise) can manage, and as I got older, I was able to appreciate the way stock characters were gradually given individuality by the people playing them.
