Beam Me Up Scotty!

Is there a more recognizable name, face, or even voice in entertainment today than William Shatner?  At 77, he is still a work-a-holic and shows no signs of changing. And while he is known for TV's star trek and now Boston Legal. He is also a 10 time best selling author. His star trek memories and his 9 volume "Tek War" sci-fi book series are publishing hits......and now he hopes to beam up book success again with his new autobiograqphy titled, up till now. Recently I had a chance to ask the pop icon about his book, his career and his legacy. I did admit to being a "huge trekkie fan!" I watched it every night after school as a kid. What wonderful memories!! A Pepsi, bag of Fritos and Star Trek !!! I'll never forget it!!!
One behind the scenes story.....he arrived with his wife, publisher and PR team. He was very nice. Very cool. He was incredibly bright. Knew a lot about Wall Street. We talked a fair amount about my previous career on the street. At the end he was starving and asked our producer brad where to eat. Brad booked Del Fresco's across the street and off they went......I can still hear him saying, "Beam Me Up Scotty!"

Here's what he had to say.
