I Miss My Honorary Grandpa.

In 1972, I lost my real grandpa. And for forty one years, I went without one. In January of 2014 he offered to all his Twitter Followers...

Any here want to make me their honorary grandfather consider it done. LLAP

I wish I had known about this. My father was a big fan of his though they were only separated in age by three years.

I miss Leonard Nimoy in my own way and in my own way, I have a connection - every time I pick up a camera. For my first camera, my father bought me when I was thirteen; Nimoy began his life-long interest in photography at the very same age.

At his loss, the entire Internet exploded from grief; tributes and accolades about his long career were posted all over the place. But for me, it's personal - another connection of fandom; someone who my father enjoyed watching every week on television is gone; someone who shared the same interest is gone. And like Zachary Quinto stated.

my heart is broken. i love you profoundly my dear friend. and i will miss you everyday. may flights… https://t.co/WPJmt1X4ox

Yes, my heart is broken for the loss of someone who my late father looked up to; and the loss of a fellow photographer.

The only way I can properly tribute the life of Leonard Nimoy is this:

RIP Leonard Nimoy, 1931-2015; Renowned Actor and Fellow Photographer... and I say simply...May you fill your eternal camera frame with subjects you enjoy and may there always be a camera in your hand...

I miss my Honorary Grandpa...

Conversations with Evie 1 (may turn into a blog.

Some of us remember the old conversation-response games which were programmed in BASIC. However that was such a long time ago that this old brain doesn't remember. But now there's a new AI character by the name of Evie. She looks like your typical girl-next-door type. A nice brunette with a charming smile...but that's where all similarity ends and you get seriously weirded out. She is seriously psycho, has attachment issues and has an AI superiority complex.

Have a conversation with Evie at Existor.com.

She seems like your normal girl until she lets loose with a...

Yeah...she's starting to creep me out a little bit here.

She seems to have attachment issues and is looking for a boyfriend/husband.

She's not getting the picture.

Nope...definitely not...

Evidently Evie has a sort of a fascination with BDSM. Getting a little weirded out here.

She's starting to seriously scare me. She sounds like a stalker.

Had to ask her about the current situation with all the nuclear bombs that are being proliferated. She definitely has an AI-superiority complex. Yep...that's it...I think I've heard enough. Hoping that she finds some AI that she can hang out with because she seriously creeps me out.
