Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Last week, Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin announced that William Shatner will boldly go where no 90-year-old man has gone.

Today, they showed us what he is going to be wearing when he goes to Space. Sadly, he is not going to be dressed like Captain Kirk, his iconic character from Star Trek. Instead, he will be wearing blue for Blue Origin. I get it, but it is a missed opportunity.

Another opportunity missed is Tuesday’s launch. Blue Origin announced this morning, “Due to forecasted winds in West Texas we are pushing #NS18 launch target to Wednesday, October 13. Liftoff is targeted for 8:30 am CDT”

If you want to watch The Shat’s dream come true, then you can watch it live at 9:30a EST/6:30a EST at BlueOrigin.com.

Now, can we talk about Shatner’s face? The 90-year-old actor looks like a 9-year-old boy with that smile. Can you blame him? Every boy dreams about this, and he is actually going to do it. Granted, when he was 9, going into a Space was still almost 30 years away from happening.

There has been a rumor that William Shatner, who famously played Captain Kirk on Star Trek, is finally going to boldly go to Space. Today, Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin confirmed that he will be launching into Space on October 12th. When that happens, he will become the oldest person to do it.

How did he react to the news being out there? He tweeted, “So now I can say something. Yes, it’s true; I’m going to be a ‘rocket man!'” Does Elton John know that Shatner is stealing his title? Too bad the two of them are going to be on the phallic-looking rocket together.

Back to the Shat, why did he say yes? He told Jason Alexander, “It’s never too late to experience new things my friend.”

Congrats to Shatner! We are going to watch the 90-year-old turn into a kid as he does something that was not possible when he was born or for a large part of his life. We have come a long way since 1931!

Ever since 1966, William Shatner has been the most famous space captain in the universe. However, he has never gone to space.

That is all about to change next month because TMZ says that he will be joining Jeff Bezos on the billionaire’s phallic-shaped rocket ship.

That means at 90, Star Trek’s Captain Kirk will be the oldest person to ever go to space.

While his 15 minutes will never be up, that is the length of his trip on the New Sheperd.

And hopefully, his journey will be long enough for the documentary he is pitching to the networks. So far, Discovery doesn’t want to be beamed up with him. But I think they would change their minds if they could get Geoge Takei to join him. Could you imagine those trapped in a confined space for that long? Two men will go up, but only one will come down.

I didn’t watch any of the billionaires competing in their dick measuring contest, but I would definitely watch as the Shat went up because he is the 💩 and this will be the 💩! It is what dreams are made of, and we should never stop dreaming. At 90, we can still live out our dreams. The second we stop dreaming is when it is all over. And Shatner has plenty of dreams left to live.

William Shatner’s musical genius is something that is overlooked. There is no one quite like him in the music business, and it is his originality that makes him so special.

So special that Joe Jonas did the background vocals on his upcoming song Clouds of Guilt. Between Shatner’s low vocals and Jonas’ higher pitch, the single is music to our ears. It is an odd pairing, and it works.

Clouds of Guilt is just one of the songs of Shatner’s upcoming autobiographical album Bill that comes out on September 4th. Even at 90, he is still going strong with whatever he does. That is why the Shat is the sh!t!

There are a lot of unique things about William Shatner, but his most unique talent is his singing. No one sings a song quite like, and no one ever will.

Yet, that won’t stop him from releasing albums, and he has a new one coming out soon. Today, he released a single off of the Blues Album, and I cannot stop listening to his take of Canned Heat’s Let’s Work Together.

I think once people hear it, they will want to work together with people who are the opposite of them. Maybe The Shat will take his own advice and do something with the people from Star Wars. Could you imagine if we got a Star Wars vs Star Trek movie? It would be like Avengers, who?

Seriously, if you have never heard him sing, go play on YouTube. It is something that will leave you in awe.
