Heidi Klum & Hayden Panettiere Bring Some Star Trek Geek Cred

I’m not huge Star Trek fan (I liked Next Generation and the original series), but anytime you get the ladies doing the Vulcan greeting you have a win on your hands, I think.

    They both are getting it wrong. Klum’s is too outstretched, and it looks like Panettiere is keeping her thumb too tucked in, not stretched out.

    And for Panettiere, there’s no freaking excuse. She’s on a TV show with the new Spock, for Gene’s sake.

    Sigh…

    Jay’s right. This is like a celebrity saying, “Star Wars? Oh yeah! I love the Ewoks! And Jar-Jar!”

    I see your “sigh” and raise you a “meh.”

    I’m imagining Alyson Hannigan showing up wearing a tastefully small and understated IDIC pin.

    I’ll be in my bunk…

    Shit. That makes about three things we’ve actually agreed upon this week. I’m definitely going to have to take the weekend to do a sanity check.

    OH, sweet sweet cheerleader…

    For some people, it’s extremely uncomfortable or difficult to make that hand gesture. They could know full well how to do it, and still be unable to complete the task.

    Leonard Nimoy tells a wonderful story from the days of the original series. He was stopped at a red light when a woman pulled up next to him and flashed him the Vulcan salute. He returned it, then asked if she could do it with her other hand. She held up a horrible version of it, and said “I speak it with an accent.”

    BTW, Nimoy invented that salute. It’s from a Jewish blessing that the Rabbi performs while the congregation has their eyes covered. Nimoy, being a curious boy at the time, peeked…

    mmm…Alyson Hannigan…. I saw her doing the fake orgasm scene in the stage version of “When Harry met Sally”. Gotta go now.
