    Really- did you think that the brass would let us get by without starting an appreciation for ole "Reach Around and Fire at the Romulans" Pike?

    I think not.

    There doesnt appear to be alot of different pictures of him on the web.
    I'm pretty handy with a camera. Maybe he wouldnt mind coming to my house? I could take a few nice new pictures of him.

    He really aged like a fine wine. Didnt he?

    You. said. it.

    He was good-looking as a young man, but...a bit too much of a pretty boy for me. But now? Golly. Perhaps I could be your camera caddy, Randi?:D

    Bruce said in an interview that if he had his choice, he'd rather play Kirk than Pike; but that it just wasn't his generation. Do you think he would have made a good Kirk if they'd got this movie together when he was 25?

    Today is his birthday. His 53rd birthday.

    Looking like he does at 53 is just freaking marvelous. But at 25, he was just way too pretty to play Kirk.

    BTW, I feel it my duty to pimp one of my favorite bad habits.

    There are really quite a few pictures of him scattered around the 'net.

    It isn't just you. I thought he was too much of a pretty boy when he was young.

    I don't have a problem with pretty boys AT ALL! I had a major crush on him back when he was on St Elsewhere. But i agree 100%....he is even BETTER as an older man.

    Happy Birthday Bruce! I have a gift for you in case you are in my part of the country......;)

    I admit that if I had gotten a look at him when he was younger, I would've had to have worn a neck brace for a month. Whiplash from my head snapping around to stare and drool you know.

    But I've always liked men with a little mileage, and some guys really do grow into their looks. So these days if I got a good look at him, I'd walk into a wall and give myself a concussion.

    FYI: according to serai1 (the fabulous person who has been capping so many of his movies), she'll soon be adding pics from The Companion, where in a previous incarnation, the admiral was ...

    an android sex slave.

    Just thought you might like to know.
