Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: WFDU - Ron Olesko Date: 31 Dec 03 - 06:50 PM If only he chose another profession, I'm sure the world would have been a much better place. |
Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: GUEST,Waldorf Date: 31 Dec 03 - 07:01 PM Absolutely. If he had gone into politics we would probably have achieved world peace many years ago. |

Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: Peace Date: 31 Dec 03 - 07:36 PM Little Hawk has to have this brought to his attention. He'll say things like, "Ah, I told you so" or "So, what's the big surprise?" If you read this, LH, I'm gonna write Shatner into the Chongo thread. That'll be in a day or two. BM |
Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: Little Hawk Date: 31 Dec 03 - 07:43 PM Hi, Bruce. Sure, why not? Just try to keep it in character. I've seen Shatner play a couple of gangster roles, but never opposite a chimp. - LH |
Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: WFDU - Ron Olesko Date: 31 Dec 03 - 07:44 PM I don't know about world peace Waldorf, but he would be the only one that would make Bush look good by comparision. |

Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: artbrooks Date: 31 Dec 03 - 07:58 PM Realizing that Shatner fans have trouble with technology...or counting to eleven without removing their shoes...and then need help to tie them again...I have generously provided a link to this article. |
Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: CarolC Date: 31 Dec 03 - 08:13 PM So right now, this very minute, JtS and I are watching Mr. S. on VH1 where he is hosting a show called, "The One Hundred Greatest One Hit Wonders of All Time".

Subject: RE: BS: Shatner introducing cheezy songs!! From: Jack the Sailor Date: 31 Dec 03 - 08:33 PM Who better to do it? Carol insightfully asks! Plastic surgery and middle aged baby fat have combined to make him eerily tribble-like! This show is fantastic!!!!! David Soul.. Bruce Willis... Eddie Murphy and Patrick Swayze singing! William Shatner... Not singing! A perfect way to set completely attainable expectations for 2004!!! |
Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: Amos Date: 31 Dec 03 - 08:39 PM The greatest Shatner Secret of all time, his Key to Success, asked if he had ever been trained in acting: Not really. I just did it until everybody stopped objecting.Kinda says it all... |

Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 31 Dec 03 - 11:13 PM Exert from the Onion interview: O: Shakespeare has come up a lot throughout your career... Is there any particular reason for that, apart from the usual actor's respect for Shakespeare? WS: No, I think pretense... is probably the main motive there. Gotta admire the man's honesty if nothing else. "Yes, I'm pretentious. I know it. Now, you know it to." Just in case a couple of people in Mongolia or somewhere hadn't figured that one out for themselves... Bruce |
Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: GUEST,James T. Kirk, Captain (Retired) Date: 01 Jan 04 - 12:01 AM Well, all I can say is that he IS (or was, anyway) better looking than I am (or was). I, on the other hand, have worn the same belt size since I was 22 years old. |
Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 01 Jan 04 - 12:20 AM GUEST,James T. Kirk, Captain (Retired) what? around your head? |
Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 01 Jan 04 - 02:02 AM Lots of people used to say that Shatner was off his Onion... |
Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: Cluin Date: 01 Jan 04 - 10:45 PM I do admire the man's sense of humour and willingness to poke fun at himself though... I gotta say, he is on my top ten list of people I'd like to get drunk with. |
Subject: RE: BS: Shatner interview in current Onion From: Kaleea Date: 02 Jan 04 - 05:48 PM Uh, Cap'n? Izzat really you? Do you remember when we met that time back on the planet Alpha Centauri VI? And then the time we got together on Ceti Alpha 2, & how we . . . uh, well, er uh, so anyways, I've been trying to catch up with you to send you holograms of the kids! They ask about you all the time! They always remember to never wear those red shirts, too. Only the gold ones. Although it is kind of difficult for all the little Hortas to get them on without arms.

Mrs. Sockthawratha Khan Tooya Horta p.s. the hubby says he'd like to get together with you & swap old war stories & talk about the good ol days when you knew his daddy. |
