I met William Shatner at a convention, had a photo taken with him and got his autograph. I didn't understand his science fiction royalty until that time in my life. He is a man with so many stories and he's still going with documentaries and other productions. In a word, he's - AWESOME!!! :)

1TB SD memory card sound very good for recording a lot of Full HD and even 2K and 4K footage (my favourite), 10K for a day trip to space is an excellent starting price for something thought to be exclusive to astronauts, sunscreen pill is really time efficient, laser pen healing device sounds cool, energy proof cars that absorb impacts causing no injury to drivers is really something, a phone for all - for effective digital filmmaking I say maybe - Avatar and Minority Report technology.

My boyfriend (and others) say I talk like William Shatner because I pause like he does, but its just that I have to remember exactly what I'm saying.

Capt.Kirk,TJ Hooker,The Cheaptravel commercials.....William Shatner is a Blessed human being.....He seems like a great guy..I grew up watching him on Star Trek and The show wouldnt have been the same without our Faithful Capt...: )

Don't forget about our man Bill hosting the reality-based television series, Rescue 911 (1989 to 1996) and also starring as attorney Denny Crane in the television dramas The Practice and its spin-off Boston Legal.

Also, in addition to all the Star Trek movies, he's lampooned his own character and spoofed the cavalier, almost superhuman, persona of Captain Kirk in films such as Airplane II: The Sequel (1982) and National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon (1993).

While he has become a multi-Emmy, People's Choice and Golden Globe winner in recent years, nearly every critic agrees that Mr. Shatner's absolute worst performance of his entire career has to be The Horror at 37,000 Feet (watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bL1-oA9z9b0), an American horror movie made for CBS television in 1973, where demonic forces terrorize the passengers on a Boeing 747 from London to New York. Of particular note is the final scene, which Shatner has described his character's demise as one of his "unique ways" of dying:

"I get sucked out of an airplane while carrying a lit torch into the plane's baggage compartment to try to confront a druid ghost."

Plus, let's not forget that all too short but nonetheless stellar music carreer . . .
