Happy Star Wars Day! May the Fourth be with you!
Grace Lee Whitney (Yeoman Rand--she of the basketweave hairdo-- on the first season of Star Trek; her purpose was to distract Captain Kirk) died this last week. She lived one county over. She did a program and book signing at my local library branch, and signed one of my Star Trek neckties (later also signed by George Takei). She was a kind lady who thought overcoming her addictions was more important than her time on the Enterprise.
