Today on Twitchy we found out that the great Star Trek / Star Wars debate between William Shatner and Carrie Fischer is still on.
I favor Star Trek over Star Wars myself but since I’m a Doctor Who fan over all I tweeted the following:
.@CarrieFFisher & .@WilliamShatner may feud on #starwars vs #startrek but #doctorwho came first & is better PERIOD!

Imagine my shock when I got this tweet in reply:
@DaTechGuyblog @carrieffisher In 1966, no one in the US had heard of the good Doctor so I beg to differ on the opinion that WHO came first.

I’ve interviewed Senators and congressmen, TV personalities like Joe and Mika, I’ve spoken to Todd Palin (although never managed to get a direct question to Sarah) and even questioned the man who will be the next president of the United States twice, but in terms of coolness this definitely tops the list and impressed the hell out of My youngest who was sitting next to me at the time and my oldest and wife who just got back from Foxwoods celebrating his 21st birthday. As I put it:
.@WilliamShatner .@carrieffisher FYI by answering my tweet you raised my “Dad is cool” factor to the nth degree for my teenage son Thanks!

Stacy McCain might argue (correctly) that his hard-earned tweet & retweet from Alyssa Milano is more desirable and nobody can deny she is a beautiful woman, but while there will never be a shortage of beautiful women in Hollywood there will never be another William Shatner.
Is that cool or what?

Cool as this is it will not put a single dollar in the DaTechGuy Fundraiser now in progress. Still over $2200 short of the $3000 goal. Hey a Shatner tweet has GOT to be worth at least a fiver.

DTG, your coolness factor has been raised to the Nth power by your proximity to (the original) Kirk.
Great job!
Get him on your radio show! “Boldly Go” and all that.
Having THE Capt James T. Kirk tweet you is far cooler than Ms. Milano…
