Etsy seller Ruth Marcus is offering this portrait of Spock holding a cat, accompanied by the following description which is basically what you would expect from someone who is selling a portrait of Spock holding a cat:
As a dedicated scientist, Mini feels a deep connection with Spock. Their bond is celebrated here by a customized, acrylic pet-celebrity portrait.
If you want in on the action, Ruth will create a customized acrylic portrait of your pet with any celebrity “who is awesome and whose picture is readily available”.

I once stole a teddy bear from a toy store. I was all of two and I didn’t know any better so my Mom went back inside and paid for him, but if I saw these in a store today, then I’m sure they’d be the ones I’d try to pilfer. I love them and their adorable lack of pants.
Not only do they each sport the appropriately colored blue or yellow tunic, but their expressions are perfect. Kirk is the charmingly handsome ladies bear and Spock has pointy ears and his signature frowny eyebrows. Each measures 13.5″ tall and is sold individually. Now you have to face your own personal Kobayashi Maru and decide which one to purchase. It’s a no win situation. Buy them both.

Ugh, Bruno Mars. I’ll say this though, Leonard Nimoy is fantastic in this video for the alternate version of The Lazy Song. Too bad this video doesn’t pop up every time the song plays—it would make Bruno Mars tolerable.
Check out the video after the break.

One of the first games we learn as kids is Rock, Paper, Scissors. I think it comes shortly after Candyland and Chutes and Ladders. The rules are ridiculously simple, it’s quick and it will settle arguments of any kind within just a few seconds. Although sometimes it does escalate into a best 2 out of 3 situation, but nothing good can come from following that route. Where does it end? At what point do you just accept that you have lost and move on? Let’s just stick with the premise that in a matter of seconds, any argument can be settled with this spiffy little game. And then came Sheldon.
