Gratitude Monday -- Our Moment With Kirk

It was only a few seconds, but my friend Sylvia and I stood with William Shatner and had our photo taken.

I remember watching Star Trek back in first run. It was my favourite show. Still is. It at no point occurred to me back then that I would ever see in person Kirk and Spock, never mind get pictures.

I did. I have. And my best friend was with me on both occasions. In fact, it was her idea to go to The Nimoy Event in Vulcan last year and to ComicCon in Calgary this year.

Thank you.

    Wow! That's fantastic.

    How long did "the Shat" have to stand in line to get a picture with you? I'm sure it was well worth it to him.

    Oh, Crabby. Thanks for that. Including photo pic up the wait was more than three hours. Total wait during the 10 hour day was five hours.

    I'm glad the Shat had the chance to have his picture taken with you and Sylvia! :)
    Those Star Trek guys don't know how lucky they are.

    It was, Reb. Not too many I'd wait for, but he was one of them.

    Very cool. I'm glad you had this opportunity.

    William Shatner and I went to the same high school, though he attended MUCH earlier than I did.. so much so, that the school operated under a different name then. And my Great Auntie Minnie used to play cards with his mother.. way back when he was just a young thing. Just a wee bit of trivia.
