Star Trek's Sulu comes out of the closet

[rallytbk]

George Takei on Star Trek: New Voyages.

"TrekToday reports that George Takei has agreed to play Hikaru Sulu in an upcoming episode of the fan series Star Trek: New Voyages. He's the second actor from the original Star Trek series to come onboard; another episode will feature Walter Koenig as Pavel Chekov. And here's what really makes this news great: Takei's episode will be written by none other than David Gerrold, the SF writer who also brought us Star Trek's Tribbles."

Hope this helps keep things on topic.

Back on topic??? Any one record the interview on howard stern with Sulu? Or at least listen to it to share any interesting questions/answers?

You should make a forum where you put those dead threads to fester, rot or
die; or simply delete them put them out of misery; good houscleaning is all that it takes.

Generally only threads that have been active in the last month will show up when you open a particular forum. In order to see anything older, AFAIK, you need to change the setting below the thread titles.

There's no real reason not to ressurrect old threads, Jan-Willem, but TM is right in that your response didn't really have anything to do with the original thread subject which was George Takai.

C'mon, TM...this thread had drifted off of George Takai *long* ago. Just quickly I see discussions about discussing/arguing and the relative merits of Howard Stern.

No, I don't see the point of Citizen Vantu ressurecting the thread but it's not really worth starting a response with that kind of heated question, now, is it?

Jan
(now where'd I put that hat...?)

I guess it is because I have read it at te the beginning and responded to that
not realizing that it is a dead tread. Besides that Takai is gay; is not a problem to me, because I am gay too and; he is a terrific acteur and that is all that really matters...

Raising thread drift to an art form

No, more along the lines of:

I write the thongth that make the whole world thing,

No more...no more...

Bewwy Manilow?

As in "Hew name was lola, she was a showgiwl
With yellow feadduws in huw haiw and a dwess cut down to thew
She would mewengue and do the cha-cha
And while she twied to be a staw
Tony always tended bar
Acwoss the cwowded floow, they wowked fwom 8 til 4
They wuw young and they had each othew
Who could ask for mow? "

And that's only the Jonathan Ross-version!
I mean; if you want to go off-topic go all the way!

[Jan]

Easy for you to say!

(First Barry Manilow songs thung with a lithp over on the moderated newsgroup, now this. Gonna be an interesting year, I can tell!)

Hey, if making sense was a requisite around here, I'd be in serious trouble! Jan

Oh well, I have to go and prepare the garglefrannistan of the second blierk to be unveiled during the spectacle of Flarghhggh, so I will be posting here only every other stoehl...

[Jan]

Happy New Year, TM!

First of all : Happy New Year Jan!

Secondly : whatevah. I do not plan on publishing more postings like my last one as I believe that it will only generate more nonsense-replies like this one :

Our planet Earth is the most dense populated world in the whole Universe; so dense that we are unmaking it by overpopulating it; consuming all itÆs natural resources without fully replacing it; and because we donÆt have yet the technology for colonisation other worlds like Mars; for instance; the Great Maker couldnÆt simply do not anything about it, he has done something to our genetic makeup.

But you tell me if this isn't miles off-topic...

/Going back to postings about the work of JMS now...

[Towelmaster]

May I know what the f*ck this has to do with Mr. Sulu a.k.a. George Takei?

I sure hope that this off-topic forum is not being completely polluted by vague, random and highly prejudiced postings that bear no relevance to the topic whatsoever.

[Citizen Vantu]

While you are busy talking about that homosexuality is right or wrong; there is a little something you really should understand.

Our planet Earth is the most dense populated world in the whole Universe; so dense that we are unmaking it by overpopulating it; consuming all itÆs natural resources without fully replacing it; and because we donÆt have yet the technology for colonisation other worlds like Mars; for instance; the Great Maker couldnÆt simply do not anything about it, he has done something to our genetic makeup.

Homosexuality isnÆt a biological error; oh no, it is by his DESIGN; his Making. Oh if he only knew the full extent of his ERROR beforehand; the tremendous suffering it has CAUSED to the Gay people; he would have made use all BISEXUALS!

He used to be a great interview when celebrities were scared to go on a show which had "Beastiality Dial-a-Date", and a Channel 9 show which went further than SNL ever did such as Celebrity Bowling with Richard Simmons and his friends which had to bowl with various items of junk food dangling in front of them, or the Christmas special with Cheech and Chong as the Wisemen, Howard as the Virgin Mary giving birth to Baby Jesus as portrayed by the Channel 9 show's producer Dan Forman.

But hey, you don't like it. Big deal.

[Dr Maturin]

He's obsolete because his show flat out sucks. He used to be a great interviewer. Now they just pull some whore off the streets and have her make out with a porn star. I can just watch porn if I want to see that, and get more quality out of it.
