Nimoy's going to Vulcan

[23skidoo]

It's taken years of trying, but the town of Vulcan, Alberta - Canada's official Star Trek capital, apparently - has finally arranged for Leonard Nimoy to pay a visit, which will happen around the time he's scheduled to visit Calgary for a Comic Convention:

Really? I must let AntonyF know about that.

Looks like a good story to me. Wish I could go up there for it.

Just whatever you do, don't let Eric Bana anywhere near there...

^ I just saw him order Anne Boleyn beheaded last night again; and I was thinking how very lucky they were that he only beheaded her and didn't destroy the whole country.

 

[T'Bonz]

Meh. What a crappy Henry VIII. Looked nothing like him.

 

[KimMH]

It really is too bad that entire cast was so durn ugly! Mr. OldstRedShrtEvr was oddly transfixed!

Gonna have to mapquest the drive from Michigan to Vulcan! Who wants to do a roadtrip?

Hey, thanks. I was watching "Meteorite Men" last night, and those boneheads went meteorite hunting in the wheat fields of Alberta and Saskatchewan when it was like zero degrees F, with snow on the ground. I think it was just after the harvest and the first snowfall. So good luck in Vulcan. Nobody will be saying it's "Hot as..."

Meh. What a crappy Henry VIII. Looked nothing like him.

Never seen the movie; just bits of it. It's one of those things like Titanic, which I also have never seen, because I know how it turns out.

Don't make him angry, you wouldn't like him when he's angry.

Exactly: he might end up bashing/stabbing someone to death and have to cut his own ears off again...

Important safety tip!

If that's how you feel about Bana then stay far away from that TV drama from a few years back that starred Ray Winstone as Henry!

Or having him kiss his best mate after finding a hunk of gold.

Winstone made a GREAT Henry VIII. The history in that mini-series was off though, for sure.

Aw Eric. He really tries! Now I want to go to Alberta...

Wish LN would come up here to Vulcan, Michigan. It would be easier for you to find (go across the big bridge, turn left and keep going almost to Iron Mt.)
