Oh, he sings very well, IMO, that is what makes it so funny! He sings such silly things in such a talented and serious manner. 🙂

I still love him though.

I want to lick William Shatner on the cheek before he dies. It’s one of my dreams. I bet he tastes like salted peanuts.

Dry roasted, or regular?

**beagledave** , I agree with you that this “ain’t right.” Pretty freakin’ hilarious though. 😃

Dry roasted!!! 😃

I made a present for you, **Tuckerfan**! (And anyone else that wants it…) I’ll leave these up for a day or so before deleting them, since they are kind of hard to find nowadays. Grab 'em quick though because they’re hogging my precious disk space!

My funny Star Trek stuff. 😛

**jin** , yer a woman after my own heart! Busy downloading 'em now!

(Oh, and a buddy of mine who’s met Shatner says that if you act like a gushing fan boy, he wants nothing to do with you, but if you tell him you love the infamous Star Trek Convention sketch, he’ll talk to you.)

**jinwicked** , I removed the link to your page with MP3’s.

Since the albums the songs are taken from appear to still be commercially available, I am for the sake of simplicity assuming the materials on them are copyrighted. I could be right, I could be wrong - we err on the side of caution when it comes to copyright.

I’d put this video as a reason why I love the same period 😉

OH MY GOD!

OH MY GOD!

OH MY GOD!

Repeat 100x.

I don’t know whether to scream, laugh, scrub my eyeballs with Clorox, slap myself in the head repeatedly, or faint. I’m mildly surprised it didn’t give me a seizure.

My only regret is that it’s almost midnight and I can’t show this to Mr. Rilch, him being asleep. I could e-mail it to Friend, but I won’t. I want to see his reaction first hand.

Oh my god. I didn’t think it could get any more bizarre until they started tossing stuff up in the air. Whose IDEA was this? His name and the song title were on the screen at the beginning—was it filmed for Hullabaloo or one of those shows?

Oh my god. No, forget that. There IS no god.

That was a hell of a thing…

It made me smile a little bit, though, so it can’t be all bad, right?

Was he high when he did this? Please tell me he was. Because it’s either that, or he was a lunatic.

What do I need to watch a quicktime movie?

I tried to play it on Real Player, but it said it was unable to download an appropriate decompressor.

Do I need a different media player to play this?

you need quicktime. It’s an Apple thing, but there are also Windows versions.

And after you get the QuickTime player, you can then watch my latest iMovie of my [daughter](http://www.singlereel.com/directory/clip_play.php?p_clip_id=17888&p_bandw=38400). 😉
