As revealed in this excerpt , Koko was on the rebound after being rejected by Bill Shatner when she snagged Big Mick.

Just thought you'd like to know....

William Shatner still conquering new frontiers

At 77, the inimitable actor is basking in the third golden age of his career

Unless "Ted Anthony" is a pseudonym used by Little Hawk, there are actually TWO FANS of the great(?) W. S. ???

In the unlikely event that there is a third, a link is provided.

I would include excerpts, but that would require comment, and my dictionary is unclear whether "bloviation" is an accepted term.

It may be noted that at the Related Photos page for this article, there are THREE pictures of the enormous(ly) popular actor, but those three are posted a total of NINE TIMES, obviously in artistic recognition of his best known acting talent - "doing little but doing it repeatedly." ?????

(It's actually a rather nice piece of fantasy writing.)

Dear Gawd.

"nd it's the story of Shatner himself Ñ a man governed by his passions and interests, a man who crosses new roads every day, gleefully ignoring those who dismiss him and conquering frontiers he never dreamed possible. A cultural phenomenon who, despite tales of his galactic ego, seems strikingly down to Earth as he shapes and basks in the third golden age of his career.

"I'm trying to fill the cracks in the bricks that have been written. I'm the mortar,'' he says. "That's what an actor should be doing.''"...

Of course!! Why didn't I realize that? Little Hawk has been holding out on me!!!! An actor should be mortar!! Why?? To fill in the cracks!! It's so OBVIOUS...

One must note that that last article does also say that W.S. is now known to play in traffic.

Should we worry?

The light is beginning to dawn, isn't it, Amos? ;-)

YEs, it is, George. The only thing I don't quite understand is why the light is pink, fuzzy, and sort of stroboscopic...but what the hell do I know, anyway...
