It was nice but now it's gone...
Сегодня - 90 лет со дня рождения ДиФореста Келли. И я прочла чудесную запись на ЖЖ'ном сообществе Шатнер/Нимой, и у меня сейчас крайне слезливое состояние, но главное, я, наконец, стала немного лучше понимать этого чудесного человека. 
'He asked Kris to get his phone book out of her bags. Call Bill. He got hold of Bill's assistant and told her about the cancer. Bill had known but told no one. De's privacy being legend, Bill respected it. Bill wasn't expected back in town for a few days, so his assistant took a message. Kris recalled that De expressed his wonder about Bill, so much life, so much fear of illness and dyning...De's compassionate response to their discomfort was to also ignore the approaching departure. Bill had called his assistant right back - he was coming, let De know. De was pleased. When Bill called back a few days later to finalize his plans, he was glad of itl. Kris remembers he said, "That would be great. I love you, Bill." Kris took Shatner's day off to ensure they had all the privacy they needed. De told Kris later that they spoke about ideas for original cast movies and such things; De kept the future at arm's length to have his present minutes with Bill unshadowed.'
And after his death, Anja recalls Bill at the Pasadena convention.'Anja wrote "Well I have to thank Bill Shatner, because he was very kind when he told us about DeForest, and read one of his poems (even though I had never heard someone reading such a long poem in such a short time. Bill said that he visited De at the hospital and told him, "De, don't die! But if you die - give me your hair!" That's very typical for Bill. He hides his sorrow behind jokes. I learned to know Bill...to know him is as hard as to like him...Sometims it's too difficult to get him. He's a man with a thousand faces. But we saw his sorrow, and we heard it through the jokes he made. And later when we got our autographs from him, we saw it in his eyes."'
Time is really
The blink of an eye
Where do they go
Those who die?
What is below?
What is above?
What is in store
For those we love?
All that's been written
And all that's been said
Still does not answer
What happens to the dead?

И очень под настроение. ))
Люди в реальной жизни, во-первых, выглядят несколько иначе, чем, скажем, на экране кино - а во-вторых, иногда и просто иначе, чем ты их себе представляешь, и предполагаемых вопросом эмоций, оказывается, просто не вызывают, при всей твоей к этим людям симпатии. )))

Нашла-таки прилично выглядящую спортивную обувь, купила. Теперь буду бегать по утрам, ага.
