Sadly the first round of voting has ended, so we just have to wait, but it would be a wonderful tribute to Sir Patrick Stewart if his Shakespeare Sonnets that uplifted us all during the Covid Insanity were nominated for a Grammy. - Make it So.

Star Trek has ensured for 60 years, not because of the starships and the crazy aliens, but because at its heart, it's about friendship. It's how they support each other though the thrilling adventures, and that was both on camera and off. Watching Whoopi Goldberg come back to play Guinan and them embrace on set then flow into the routine that they had created decades ago. Watching Patrick and Marina sitting in their chairs and time melted away. Seeing these friends come together again was such a gift. If there wasn't a global pandemic happening around us all it might have been perfect. But maybe that is part of the story, once again they came together and battled adversity and in the end, something special came out of it. I remember running through the Starfleet Academy Speech set on my way to scout with Jonathan Frakes and I was late, but there he was...not Patrick Stewart but Jean Luc Picard in full uniform giving a speech at Starfleet. I had to check myself and sit and watch he brilliant speech. When would I ever get to see this again...never. It was amazing. A moment like so many others that I will cherish. We will miss you, more than you missed the carpet.
