Captain Kirk to Conquer Space for Real?

[NoHuddleKelly12]

Ok, ok, the title may have been a bit of clickbait--everyone knows there's no way Shatner's suiting up for reals on the Space-X rocket next week...but wouldn't Kirk docking in at the ISS be something to behold?  On a side note, Shatner always struck me as someone who's aged well--he could legit pull off another Trek film installment, imho.

With recently having finalized his divorce from wife #4, maybe he just wants to get away from it all?  ?

Given that he's shaped like a small moon these days, it makes perfect sense...

Hes going to be real disappointed when he finds out the sexiest alien on space station is burly Russian woman with an ALF tattoo on her ass.

I feel like we need @That's No Moon in this thread now.

The guy is 89 years old, has all his wits about him, and is still generating cash...which all three stats pretty much knocks everybody on this board out of the box.

 

Otherwise, please point me to the 90 year members here who don't carry their marbles around in an old sack and are worth hundreds of millions as opposed to tens of millions.

Star Wars / Star Trek crossover?  Shatner as 'Jabba the Hut'?  ?

No worries, the “girdling” effect of a Federation standard issue uniform belt keeps it all ship shape!
