I was watching tv today when all of a sudden comercials pop up. But these were no ordinary comercials. I was sitting there then all of a sudden...

There's a comercial promoting William Shatners music cd called "Has Been"! (Nice name

)

Whats up with that. Its not a hoax or anything to look at Williams website http://www.williamshatner.com/ . Heres a quote:

William Shatnerâ€™s much anticipated new album "Has Been" will hit stores oÂn October 5, 2004. The album was produced by musical artist Ben Folds and is being distributed by Shout! Factory. It contains a wonderfully diverse collection of personal songs and heartfelt verse, much of which was written by Bill himself. The album was recorded at Javelina Studios in Nashville, Tennesseeâ€”the same studio where Elvis Presley performedâ€”and it has already gotten some very good reviews. "Esquire Magazine" raves that itâ€™s "so droll and profound that weâ€™re thinking Grammy."

So once again, whats up with that?

To think of him making a cd, and even having that website is amazing.

yes, I saw the futurama and family guy episodes that he was on, and I have to say, the futurama episode was a lot better than the family guy one

Best line ever:

"Beam me up God!" -after being hit by a car.

On family guy they took is strange speech pattern and just made it so his movements followed it. It was great to see him on the Enterprise, sitting in the chair and well explaining something ends up ripping his pants. That and when he was with Peter outside in the rain their by a lamp post, Shatner was talking (again) and he goes parelle to the ground.
He was just one big joke.
