Bill Talks About His Equipment

In the newest issue of The Best of Times (the William Shatner Fan Club newsletter), Bill answered a question submitted by Jungle Kitty.

Q: My husband bought a kilt and swears it's the most comfortable thing ever. Have you ever worn a kilt?

A: No, but then your husband's equipment and mine may be different.

Buy a piece of Bill's Hollywood star!

For SEVEN HUNDRED DOLLARS!!

William Shatner’s Hollywood Walk of Fame “Original Stardust” limited edition framed collectibles feature an 8x10 hand signed photo of William Shatner as Captain Kirk from Star Trek, along with a terrazzo nugget (approx. 1 ½” x 1 ½”) from his original dedicated Hollywood Walk of Fame landmark star, a personalized and numbered identification plaque in a 31 ½” x 17 ½” x 1 ½” ebony finished wood frame with a triple matt. The product is high quality, limited to 350 units and comes with a certificate of authenticity signed by Johnny Grant the Honorary Mayor of Hollywood and another from William Shatner stating that he hand signed his featured photo.

All of the profits Bill Shatner makes from this piece will go to benefit his charities.

Homework: What would be in a Star Trek Christmas episode?

Bill is EVERYWHERE

Including in the movie Fanboys. This could be funny! And they're right; Picard isn't gay, Riker is.

Trek at the Picket Line

Here's Nichelle Nichols (looking fabulous as always) supporting the WGA on the picket lines at Paramount. Yesterday was a Trek day, and lots of folks showed up: Walter Koenig, Brent Spiner, Scott Bakula, George Takei, Wil Wheaton, and of course Harlan Ellison (who's been very active on the lines since the strike started).

Pop over to LAist to see more pics from the front lines.

It is TOO cool.

Grabbed from the ever-lovin' Mike Sterling. Now, let's clear something up: Mike says, "It's cute seeing companies still trying to make Star Trek "cool." Not working, sorry."

HEY: Star Trek - the original series, anyway - IS ALWAYS COOL.

FOREVER.

Thank you.
