patrickStewart.jpgOne of the best voices in entertainment, Patrick Stewart, went in for surgury. The Assoiated Press reported the following:

Angioplasty involves the use of catheters to place a small balloon in a narrowed blood channel. When the balloon is inflated, the artery flows more freely.

The 64-year-old Stewart who played Professor Xavier in “X-Men” and its sequel, and Captain Jean-Luc Picard on “Star Trek: The Next Generation” went in for an annual physical on Monday, according to his publicist, Kelly Bush. Doctors detected a blood-flow problem and recommended “pre-emptive angioplasty” to head off any future ailments.

I’ve liked Stewart ever since I saw him in the bad version of Dune. All the best Patrick, get well soon.
