My God, what's Bond doing?... I think he's attempting re-entry, sir. http://www.eccentric-cinema.com/ Cole's Comics: All About Jack Cole http://colescomics.blogspot.com/

Also his joke about Tim Hardaway is perhaps one of the funniest satires on homophobia ever lol And what was that? I don't even know who Tim Hardaway is but I love a good gay-basher bashing joke. I guess one really can't grow up watching the original episodes over and over in re-runs and eagerly anticipating the next feature film without starting to feel these characters and the actors behind them, are somehow family. I felt compelled to attend a wake for James Doohan held at the Sci-Fi Museum a few years ago, and it was with excitement and joy I greeted Takei's initial coming out and now news of his marriage. Congratulations, Mr. Sulu. -Clark Last Edited By: SparkieGojira May 24 08 7:22 PM. Edited 1 times.

Jun 3 08 3:33 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	But did Shatner get an invite? Koenig To Be Takei's Best Man (from the IMDB) 2 June 2008 5:55 PM, PDT Gay actor George Takei will wed his longtime partner in September - and has chosen his Star Trek co-star Walter Koenig as his best man. The 71-year-old star - known for his role as Sulu in the 1960s sci-fi series - will wed partner Brad Altman this summer, after California state authorities lifted the ban on same-sex marriage last month. Takei will marry his partner of 20 years on 14 September and has invited his former castmates to the ceremony. He tells People.com, "The best man is my colleague from Star Trek, Walter Koenig, who played Chekov, and the matron of honour is Nichelle Nichols (Lt. Uhura). And Leonard (Nimoy) and his wife Susan are on the (guest) list." And Takei hopes the ceremony will be more romantic than his proposal. He explains, "We knew that the Supreme Court was going to be coming down with their ruling. (We'd heard) that it was probably going to be positive. So I was planning on asking Brad to get married. "We were at home in the kitchen and we had the TV going, and when the word came down suddenly Brad got on his knees in front of me. And I said, 'What are you doing?' He said, 'George, will you marry me?' I said 'Yes. You beat me to it. I meant to ask you.'" GREG ESPINOZA I made it possible for you to come here!

Jun 3 08 6:05 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Associated Press \| 6/02/08 An initiative that would again outlaw gay marriage in California has qualified for the November 2008 ballot, the Secretary of State announced Monday. California Secretary of State Debra Bowen said a random check of signatures submitted by the measure's sponsors showed that they had gathered enough names for it to be put to voters. The measure would amend the state constitution to "provide that only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California." Not being a lawyer (or a California resident), I'm confused... If this initiative passes after Takei and his partner legally marry, does the state then send 'em a letter saying, "Sorry, your marriage is now null and void?" "Dammit, it's jammed!" www.eccentric-cinema.com

riotengine	Takei Considers Shatner Reconciliation	#18	[-]
Jun 5 08 1:19 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Takei Considers Shatner Reconciliation (From the IMDB) 4 June 2008 5:59 PM, PDT George Takei is considering healing his rift with former Star Trek co-star William Shatner and inviting him to his forthcoming gay wedding. The pair fell out while the show was being made; with Takei - who played Sulu - complaining about Shatner's ego and his insistence on regular close-ups on his character Captain Kirk. But Takei's soon-to-be husband Brad Altman hints a reconciliation could be on the cards - because they are not ruling out inviting Shatner to their September wedding. He says, "We have only 200 seats. Our contact list has, like, 3500 names, so we have to whittle it down. I don't know if William Shatner is going to make the cut."

Why, I'm shocked, SHOCKED to hear that Shatner had a falling out with yet another Trek cast member!

Jun 6 08 12:09 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Geez, hasn't Shatner been facing up to his earlier behavior (ever since Nichelle Nichols gave him the straight dope about his unpopularity with the rest of the cast during an interview for "Star Trek Memories") and asking for their forgiveness for a couple of decades now? He even added a wish-fulfillment scene in one of his Star Trek novels in which Captain Kirk and Scotty kiss and make up (figuratively) after a bitter falling out. Of course Takei should invite Shatner to the wedding. And maybe even let him sing "Rocket Man." Legend, oh legend, the third wheel legend...always in the way.
