Hee, yes. But they're too old now. Besides, Nimoy's not really cool. Spock is cool, though.

Shatner got stock in the company, rather than a salary. I also notice his delivery is still, "But .... I'm the voice of .... Priceline". I don't know if that's intentional, or that's just the only way he can act.

Yeah, it's kind of his trademark, isn't it?

Yawn. I'm going to hit the hay. See everyone tomorrow!

The only thing I've seen him act differently in was his two early appearances on Twilight Zone. But since Star Trek he's like that in everything I've seen him in.

There's a FedEx commercial running now with three shipping nerds pretending a package needs to get somewhere urgently... "If this package doesn't get there by tomorrow morning, we're DOOMED! (Doomed!)" The idea is that FedEx takes the drama out of shipping... Anyway, I swear one of the actors is deliberately mimicking Shatner's stilted delivery...
