We Remembered Another Story About the Enterprise....


We remembered reading the other day that William Shatner ("Captain Kirk").... was upset with the Smithsonian.... He loaned them his Enterprise (large model used in the old show) and they  "Broke" it.....!!!!  Well, broke off a piece... Kirk was Not "Happy....

we just spent over an hour trying to find the correspondence between the Smithsonian and Shatner....
He just could not believe that they "broke" His Ship....
... they finally contacted him back saying ".....all repairs are made Sir ... Your ship is displayed and awaits your inspection , Captain".... 
                      ... it would seem that somehow the frontal "Dish" had broken off...
           But , with the work of their experts... the old Enterprise is as good as New...

  1. And that reminds me, here in Alberta there's a town named Vulcan. They've put up a big monument to the Enterprise and also have a Star Trek visitor's centre. Anyway, here's a blog of mine from last summer when we visited and took photos of the Starship Enterprise:

  2. We liked the First Three Star Wars Films... and the "Revenge of the Sith" was Awesome.... And "Wrath of Khan" (from the old "Space Seed" episode),,, is one of my most enjoyed Films ... He makes for such a Great "Villain"... and his "fondness for quoting "Moby Dick"... congrats again on your having finished that Loooog Book...
    ... A great evening to you and yours dear Lady Deara....
