Ummmm, was that meant to be funny at the time?

I hope it was supposed to be funny then.

If it's any consolation, the video clip of Nimoy singing The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins is much, much worse.

Anyone notice the Google ad that popped up for this thread?

oh, he's so bad it's good! You know, that embarrassing 'cringe factor', sort of like watching Attack of the Killer Tomatoes and such ilk.:wall:
"Has Been" also has the cringe factor, but what a production team! :lol:
(no, I didn't buy it, it's been played on local radio.... once...)

I used to, but it disappeared (along with a lot of other things) during the divorce.
Nice avatar, ausduck1. Is that a setting Moon in the background?
BTW, did you know Ausdruck in German means "expression"? http://img394.imageshack.us/img394/4879/iconbiggrin1kg.gif

I wish I had that album! *sigh* (yes, I am frequently told I am 'weird', 'nerdy' and 'slightly mad') My beloved Mr 'Iceblock' (couldn't say Spock when I first saw the series wayyyyy back when it wasn't a re-run :) )
Maksutov, that is a moon, and I leave the question of whether it's setting up to the person viewing. I enjoy sitting alone gazing at the night sky -sorta puts all in perspective, which is why this particular avatar appealed to me. And I am an expressive duck when I want to be! :D
(any day I can learn a new word in another language is a good day!)
Take care!

I sometimes forget how handsome Mr. Shatner used to be. http://www.cosgan.de/images/midi/liebe/h015.gif

Did anyone see Shatner on the Emmys with the opera singer, doing the original Trek show opening? I was horrified yet curious to know if Bill himself was going to sing, but ended up being pleasantly surprised at how it did go down. They were no Donald Trump And Megan Mullally doing Green Acres, yet it was still fun to see.

They spoofed this on Family Guy, with Stewie doing the spoken word thing (I have never seen the Shatner clip, I can only assuming that this is the one)
I can't hear the clip at this station (no speakers!)
Perhaps someone could find a link for the Family Guy clip?

I am a proud owner of the Golden Throats album from Rhino Records. for some reason, though, I don't listen to it very often . . . .

Did anyone see Shatner on the Emmys...Yep---sure looked like he was about to break into song.

He must mean... this is what can happen... when you don't currently smoke...
He's smoking a cigarette in the OP.

But he didn't learn that extra-special quality of gen-u-ine eye candy.... keeping mouth shut http://www.cosgan.de/images/smilie/traurig/d035.gif

No sound? How do I get sound?
I'm a computer genious! This has never happened to me before! The world MUST be coming to an end! No sound on a video? This is absurd!
Or, a polite set of instructions would suffice...

I have sound. In fact, I had to adjust the balance. The music in the background was louder than Shatner's voice. ausduck1 would appreciate that statement. ;)
