He's been wearing a rug since the 60s, the 1960s, not his 60s. But he's STILL Capt. Kirk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Gun Barney, SASS #2428 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Any chance he will stay there? OMG, that was almost blasphemy coming from a guy who has been to Start Trek conventions not only in costume, but in full prosthetic makeup as well. I even attended the "Sit Long and Prosper" event... I am a Trekkie..... I gotta check with Starfleet command to determine the correct penance for such an utterance.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddog McCoy SASS #5672 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Mr Scott beat him there. I always liked Mr. Scott- one of the reasons I went into Electronics and computer repair after high school in the 1980's. However, there was more money to be made in industrial electrical work.

Tony Bennett is 95 with Alzheimer’s but still sings his songs. I hope I’m still having that much fun after nine decades orbiting the sun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Gun Barney, SASS #2428 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 I wonder what kind of legal waivers he had to sign to take this trip? I must admit i am a bit envious. I’d love to be able to go into space. Hell, I’d love to be walking around at 90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Gun Barney, SASS #2428 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 I tell you one thing, I’ve been in the room when shatner was talking a few times. That man can tell a story better than most, kept a full auditorium hanging on his every word. can’t wait to hear him talking about this trip.

I have never gone to a convention, but I do belong to the Amazon “Star Trek shirt of the month” club. Every month I get a different tee shirt with a Star Trek theme.

Trailrider #896 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 I attended one of his shows in Denver several years ago. One of the "questions" the "interviewer" asked was, "Boxers or briefs?" To which Shatner replied, "Depends!" I do envy him the ride, and would take one if offered...free! But, to me, going into space would mean on orbit. Now, if Elon would call me... I told my wife when we first met 55 years ago, that if the chance ever came, there would be no discussion. She said, she'd wave! Maybe by the time I'm 90, the price of a seat on a Crew Dragon will have come down to where I could afford it...if I could pass the physical. Live long and prosper, Capt. Kirk! Ad Astra!
