Ain't It Cool News.com ^ | 03/22/09 | Maurice LaMarche/Harry Knowles

Posted on 03/22/2009 6:37:36 AM PDT by Reaganesque

Hey folks, Harry here... I don't know about you, but I have an eternal love for Maurice LaMarche due to his voice work as THE BRAIN from PINKY AND THE BRAIN. So when I received an email telling me that The Brain was declaring this date "3-22" forever to be INTERNATIONAL TALK LIKE WILLIAM SHATNER day... including his expert advice on how to Talk like William Shatner... well... I had to share. Only 192 people had seen his podcast - and that number needs to go up significantly. I mean... on June 4th you can own Kirk's Captain chair for your very own! And here we have one of the great voice talents training you to become Shatner! AND there's a new Star Trek franchise coming out!!! So jump on this wagon before the mainstream world knows about this holiday - Wear a gold tunic today part your hair differently... make out with weird alien chicks cuz... no matter where in this world you are... and especially if you're on the International Space Station... TODAY is forever deemed INTERNATIONAL TALK LIKE WILLIAM SHATNER DAY!

Click here for video.


TOPICS: Music/Entertainment
KEYWORDS: holiday; shatner; talk; trek
I, for one, will be...honoring this...special day.

For those of you who arent' familiar with Maurice LeMarche, he has done some very well known voice overs for Warner Brothers such as Brain from Pinky and the Brain.

Here is a link to a site where you (anyone who is interested) can watch any episode of the Twilight Zone for free on your computer. Note that there are 3 seasons, and that each season has two pages of episode listings:

I think he’s a bigger schmuck today than he was during his Star Trek years.

James T. Kirk on the Constitution:

This was not written for chiefs. [Shouting] Hear me! Hear this! Among my people, we carry many such words as this from many lands, many worlds. Many are equally good and are as well respected, but wherever we have gone, no words have said this thing of importance ... in quite this way. Look at these three words written larger than the rest with a special pride never written before or since -- Tall words proudly saying ... "We the people". That which you called Ee'd Plebnista was not written for chiefs or kings or warriors or the rich and powerful, but for all the people!

I, for one, am sick to death of seeing this guy’s mug on every other commercial. I don’t know which is worse: Shatner or John Madden.

That episode brought tears to my eyes. I was in the Air Force at that time and realized that Roddenberry, (a WWII fighter pilot, lawyer and fantastic writer), was reminding us of our foundation!

This is one of the funniest photo shops ever. It is laugh out loud funny.

FreeRepublic is not only a great news and information source, but it contains the most hilarious posts and pictures to be found anywhere.

Just accent the wrong word in every sentence - it's easy. ;)

Thanks! :o)

So funny, and unfortunately, it is ominously true! Henry Waxman is scary in every way possible.
