    the amazing part is that bernie could actually say (with a straight face) that he was proud to have his song presented again as interpreted by william shatner!!

    Shiner posted that before & I'll bet he'll post the Family Guy spoof again.

    It is indeed hilarious.

    I didn't know this was posted before. I didn't see it but it shows Shiner has a good sense of humor. Anyway. I can't play this for a while. I have to give it a break. I must have studied every nuance of his performance. His pomposity is greater than or equal to his ego.

    Mods, feel free to merge this with Shiner's thread.

    That was painful to watch...

    From the William Shatner classic school of over-acting...

    The once so cool and confident Captain Kirk, nothing more than a carriciture of his former self ever since.

    Heh, heh, I still love that one! Tot, I searched back through the posts and found the Family Guy clip, but when I tried to use it I got "Sorry, this video no longer available". Oh well, guess we'll have to just settle for Bill.

    My clever, 26 yr. old neice knows what a Star Trek geek I am. So, for my last birthday she sent me a Star Trek birthday card featuring Captain Kirk and Mister Spock on the cover. The dialog on the front reads “Analysis, Spock. If all the candles on that cake were to be lit simultaneously…”

    When you open the card you discover that it is electronic as Spock’s voice says ominously, “Annihilation, Jim. Total, complete, absolute annihilation.”

    I played with it over and over again, until the battery died. It doesn't take much to amuse me...

    Default Mr. Tambourine Man

    Here's a link to Shatner's cover of Mr. Tambourine Man from his Transformed Man record...

    http://beemp3.com/download.php?file=...Tambourine+Man

    I tried to find a video for this but you'll have to make due with audio only. This is just unreal. You know, I really have to stop listening to this stuff because my sides reall hurt and I have no tears or urine left to expel

    At 2:45 you just may lose control of your bowels!

    Update: Here's a video...
