GRA: Captain's log, stardate 2534.2. While orbiting the planet Diabetia, I was attacked and incapacitated by...some...thing--after overindulging...on my favorite food--which will remain nameless--in the event Sulu gets the idea of bringing more of it to my house--tempting me to...overindulge--again.

Sulu: Chocolate cake, Captain Kirk, or apple pie and ice cream? Which was it?

Kirk: Janitor Sulu, I will never tell YOU, of ALL people.

Sulu: I'll be watching, Captain. Ha, ha, ha, ha.

Kirk: You have to sleep SOMETIME, Sulu. Please leave the bridge.

Always worth a laugh, from fifty years ago: 41 seconds of middle-aged Shatner playing $10,000 Pyramid, both chairs, solo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jD6sGQTu0wo

Yes,classic. How about now--what would that look like?

He was also on "Pyramid" for a week with Nimoy in the early seventies (that's on YouTube.)

On the other hand,he seemed insufferable during a week of "Tattletales"(that from memory.)

"The Trouble with Truffles(chocolate)"
would be the next logical episode of "Star Trek 2025

TV guide(September 28,2025)
9pm(nbc)Star Trek 2025
Sulu(George Takei) catches Captain Kirk(William Shatner) eating his favorite binge food--chocolate truffles--and creates a type that reproduces itself --all over the ship. The thoroughly hooked Kirk is in danger of suffering severe--and possibly fatal-- sugar shock from consuming large amounts of the confection.(60 minutes)
Spock:Leonard Nimoy
McCoy:DeForest Kelley
Scotty:James Doohan

DOLLY PARTON POSTPONES LAS VEGAS ENGAGEMENT "FOR NINE MONTHS" TO ADDRESS "MEDICAL ISSUES"

GRA:Pregnant?No. Back reconstruction after carrying mammoth breasts for 60 years--maybe.

NEW YORK (AP) — Dolly Parton has postponed her first Las Vegas residency in 32 years, citing “health challenges,” the country legend shared on social media Sunday night.

She did not provide specific details, writing, “As many of you know, I have been dealing with some health challenges, and my doctors tell me that I must have a few procedures. As I joked with them, it must be time for my 100,000-mile check-up, although it’s not the usual trip to see my plastic surgeon!”

Parton added that she is postponing the shows because she is “not going to be able to rehearse and put together the show that I want you to see. You pay good money to see me perform, and I want to be at my best for you.”

She was scheduled to perform six shows at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace for “Dolly: Live in Las Vegas” between Dec. 4 and Dec. 13, overlapping with the National Finals Rodeo. Her dates have been moved to next year — Sept. 2026.
