All they're trying to do is get people to visit their spammy/junk blog.<br /><br />Nothing more, and certainly nothing less.<br /><br /><a href="http://gbmjrflashy.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Father Nature's Corner</a>G.

I liked Jaimie's ideas on time-travel, hope, and her book. I may need to check it out. I'm still waiting for free engergy and flying cars, but not holding my breath. <br />I've seen Housebound on Neflix and didn't think I'd be interested; so glad you're around to change my mind.<br />I grew up with a Trekkie father so this loss hit harder than I expected. I was sad that a part of my youth was gone. Your words are very nice. <br />I try not to think too much about comments. I guess I'm still at the phase where I'm excited when some leaves anything.

I'm trying to honor his memory and have joined Armchair Squid in his recounting of Star Trek TAS. It is reassuring to hear Leonards voice through his character Spock, again:) He will always be the great vulcan and will LLAP in our human hearts. <br /><br />As for lame comments, I try to be genuine, relevant and give something back to the blogging community.SpacerGuyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05575342869714342370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699262959296846764.post-48809339487755741072015-03-04T02:11:29.674-05:002015-03-04T02:11:29.674-05:00I was (am) very sad over the loss of Mr. Nimoy, he...I was (am) very sad over the loss of Mr. Nimoy, he was (is) a sci-fi icon and he will be missed.

Never was into skateboarding since they didn't become popular until my younger siblings were tweens. Rollerskating was more my speed. How about hover skates? Congrats to Jamie Ayres! <br /><br />I think a lame comment is better than no comment, although I have the "Like" feature on my blog, and even a "Like" makes me happy. But, hey, it doesn't take much to make me happy. Since my tag line is Random Acts of Weirdness, I'm fine if people just leave a comment saying, "Hello weirdo." :)LynNerdKelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04167392990015741278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699262959296846764.post-60664065167965336682015-03-03T23:49:33.195-05:002015-03-03T23:49:33.195-05:00You are amazing at taking the time to read and res...You are amazing at taking the time to read and respond to blog posts, Alex!

Sometimes they're just hoping you'll follow their link where you find they're flogging their book, but that's okay. Bloggers struggle to sell books. But true, thoughtful posts take a lot of time and it'd be nice if commenters actually read your post, but not everyone thinks like us. <br /><br />Sad that Nimoy passed on. He was legend.
