Old Spock versus New Spock
Won Over By Reality
By Tim Bayer
BRIGHTON New York—(Weekly Hubris)—5/20/2013—In the event that you missed my last post, the video most recently occupying this space was titled, Call Me Maybe (Military Style).
I’m a fan of the Star Trek franchise, but you needn’t to be a fan to warm to today’s video offering. If you’re at all familiar with Star Trek, wherever in time you left the series, and the indelible character of Spock, I believe you’ll find the accompanying video here as entertaining as I.
The latest franchise re-boot features Zachary Quinto as Spock. Leonard Nimoy, the actor who created Spock in the original Star Trek series and movies, and Quinto, as New Spock on The Block, have teamed up in a commercial for Audi . . . and the result deserves a maximum grade of Four Pointed Ears At Full Alert.

If you, yourselves, come across an entertaining link or video, I’d be interested in seeing it, and sharing it with my readers at Weekly Hubris. Please contact me at: Email: tim@safegdriver.com.)

He attended St. Bonaventure University, earning a BS in Computer Science, and then worked in the hi-tech world. In 2002 he turned his creative energies to product development and video production with the release of his first independently produced products. When the demand for web site design and freelance writing increased, he once again switched skill sets . . . to writing and web work. An avid or, to be more accurate, rabid, disc golfer, he may often be found chasing plastic while in pursuit of the perfect round on a disc golf course, or designing and developing disc golf products for Demogrid.com. He says he tries to find the humor hidden in everyday experiences, because, “life is too important to be taken seriously.” (Author photo by Tim Bayer. Author Head Shot Augment: René Laanen.)

Fascinating. Love it. One of the #THE 1701 “Into Darkness” that received 3-D glasses by Fed Ex in advance. Wear them ALL the time. Never realized everything is THREE dimensional! Wow! I mean WOW!

A well done video that made me laugh. Hmmm …. interesting thought …. I look at a computer screen so much these days, sometimes it takes my eyes a second to focus when I look up from the screen to the 3 dimensional world. I thought it was my aging vision. Maybe I should try wearing the glasses for my computer work. :-^
