Oh say it ain't so. Crud. He's so amusing. I never noticed he was THAT snappy of a dresser. 8)

[John O]

very good. Can I steal it?

[isthisnickcool]

sure

[Disambiguator]

Paging Richard Gere...

That's a funny story.

[ChiefJayStrongbow]

I think he only practiced flashing the Vulcan sign so that he could probe 2 guys at once and still work the remote with his thumb.

Sorry to dissapoint you, but I intervieuwed Brent Spiner as well, and I am convinced that at some time in or after his career he will throw the clausit-doors wide open and burst into the room singing Liza Minelli-songs.

(Another dissapointing tidbit: The man is a complete Jerk)

An early career photoshoot?

While Deforest Kelly never had children, but was married and, from all accounts I've seen and from what I saw at conventions, loved his wife and did not seem to be gay.

[MeanWestTexan]

Apparently, now that Sulu is gay, you really don't know where the tribbles have been.

[RebelBanker]

Spiner's wife Loree McBride and three-year-old son Jackson may be surprised at that particular allegation.

[Dazedcat]

Hey once Captain Kirk did the alien green chick in that one episode, what's the big deal about one of flight deck officers being gay?

I mean really.........if the Captain of a Federation Starship could actually do a green alien woman....... :-)

[Blue Eyes]

To simplify my life, I'm just going to assume that everyone is Hollywood is gay until proven otherwise. Not that it will change my life one iota.

[IGOTMINE]

If I recall she was rather hot.

[chinditz]

With all due respect: They would'nt be the first wife&children combo who were to find out last.

[RebelBanker]

No argument here, I just tend to be a little skeptical about accusations of being gay thrown at anyone and everyone.

BTW, the only 'false positive' I ever got on gaydar was a show business type. I guess he worked around so many of them, he picked up some of the mannerisms and such.

[megatherium]

I've come to the conclusion by the time folks "come out", everyone already knows.

His mother always knew.

[Jim Hill]

Sulu sucks Spock's . . . er . . . socks

[chinditz]

"No argument here, I just tend to be a little skeptical about accusations of being gay thrown at anyone and everyone."

Ditto.

I would not have believed such "acusations" myself but spending the better part of an hour with the guy, left me convinced that this was no false-positive or aquired mannerism.

[InsureAmerica]

the episode was titled "the trouble with dribbles"

[Dazedcat]

"If I recall she was rather hot."

Yeah she was, but she was still green............
