If you haven't heard, and I just did, the actor who played Scotty on Star Trek, James Doohan, died today at 85 from pneumonia. Farewell and adieu.

he lived to a good age

Getting old and still making "art" without soiling myself, now that's success.

As one who grew up watching ST TOS my heart is saddened by the loss of this wonderful actor. One of his shining talents was accents - the one that landed him the part of Lieutenant Commander Montgomery "Scotty" Scott. During his audition for the part he kept them entertained for over an hour with the variety of accents he knew.

On the show he was a hard drinker, stubborn, and always looking out for his "bairns." :-)

Who can ever forget the time in "The Trouble With Tribbles" when Scotty refused to fight for his captain's honor but threw a punch at the Klingon because he insulted the Enterprise? :-)
