First of all, it just isn't right that the acknowledgement of Ms. Bacall does not include a single picture, so let's fix that.
Passing away in the same week Ms. Arlene Martel, who is probably best known for her portrayal as Mr. Spock's betrothed and as a bad genie on 'I dream of Genie'. Her son said that it was kind weird accompanying mom to fan shows because guys would have a crush on your mom because she’s a sci-fi babe from the ’60s.
Rest in Peace gals. The world's just that tiny bit less beautiful without you.Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also in prison. Thoreau: Civil Disobedience (1846) I have never met a man so ignorant that I couldn't learn something from him. Galileo Galilei If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning. Frederick Douglass |
