How do I convert to Shatnerology and better yet-if MO passes the law about Christianity being the official religion of our state and begins teaching intelligent design, can I demand that my daughter be taught these teachings instead?

3. Boston Legal rocks!

Shatner's chemistry with James Spader is gorgeous to behold.

"I'm not a Starfleet commander, or T.J. Hooker. I don't live on Starship NCC-170... (some audience members say "1"), or own a phaser. I don't know anybody named Bones, Sulu, or Spock (picture of Dr. Benjamin Spock is shown on screen behind him). And no, I've never had green alien sex, but I'm sure it'd be quite an evening. (Pomp and Circumstance begins playing.) I speak English and French, not Klingon! I drink Labatt's, not Romulan ale! And when someone says to me 'live long and prosper', I seriously mean it when I say, 'get a life'. My doctor's name is not McCoy, it's Ginsberg (nude picture of Dr. Ginsberg shown on screen). And tribbles were puppets, not real animals. PUPPETS! And when I speak, I never, ever talk like Every. Word. Is. Its. Own. Sentence. I live in California, but I was raised in Montreal. And I believe in priceline.com, where you never have to pay full price for airline tickets, hotels, and car rentals! I've appeared onstage at Stratford, at Carnegie Hall, Albert Hall, and the Monkland Theatre in NDG. And, yes, I've gone where no man has gone before, but... I was in Mexico and her father gave me permission! My name is William Shatner, and I am Canadian!"

(from a Just for Laughs appearance; a parody of the popular Molson Canadian Commercial entitled "I Am Canadian.")

8. I highly recommend picking up his new album Has Been.

Seriously. It's a great album. The Henry Rollins duo is worth the price alone. :)
