"I'm. Going. Into. Space. AGAIN!"

[The Bread Guy]

Who SAYS you're too old ....

Now 90 years old, William Shatner will soon be the oldest person who's ever flown to space.

Shatner, an actor who made history in his role as James T. Kirk, the first-ever "Star Trek" captain in the original series, which premiered in 1966, will soon fly to space and, in doing so, make history. On Oct. 12, Shatner will launch to space and back as a passenger on a suborbital flight aboard Blue Origin's New Shepard vehicle ...

Letter signed by 200 leaders, activists, actors seeks protection for B.C.'s old-growth forests​

A Vancouver-based environmental group says more than 200 prominent people including scientists, Indigenous leaders, politicians, actors and artists, have signed a letter calling on British Columbia Premier John Horgan to halt old-growth logging.

Canopy says those signing the open letter and sending messages to Horgan range from Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs Grand Chief Stewart Phillip to former NASA scientist James Hansen and actors William Shatner and Dame Judi Dench.

Shatner's message says standing beside a giant cedar makes it clear how "small our place in the universe really is,'' and the premier should let the forests "live long and prosper.''
