me too. I've said this before, but just in case you didn't read it-- I wrote Peter Falk a note about a year before he died. I didn't realize that even then he was starting to fall into his dementia. Sadly, I did not hear back.
I don't remember your saying you'd written him. I remember that you'd contacted some actors, and that I'd responded saying I'd like to contact aHopkins, and you found Hopkins' contact info for me! Or I found it! Or somebody, 'cause I have it! But I haven't done it yet!

I ... enJOYED him.. as Captain ... KIRK. Best Canadian ham ever.

He had an interview show that I thought was really good. I've enjoyed the guy. He has a very nice way about him - although he shouldn't be quite so afraid of looking old.

Have fun! He's one I'd definitely enjoy having a beer with.

I've always had a problem with Shatner looking old; as well as so many actors and public figures whose aging proves to me when I have to see it just how I'm likely to appear should I stumble into a mirror one day. :down::facepalm_smiley:

Maybe that's one reason why I preferred Picard (other than Stewart being a superb actor). He looked the same age for about 30 years, but it was without scalpels and needles and toxins (as far as I know). And definitely without dye or a rug.

I like Shatner on that 'Weird or What?' show.
