This is two years before his "do i wear a toupee" comment. And also in them years he has point blank, said in newspaper interviews things like "and its not a toupee. Which he said, in a 2008 interview....and that not the only time after the roast, that he has done so..thinking on this shatner just keeps playing on words, without any real meaning.....even i got excited when i first saw this post. Having had quite a few days, to think about it, bill is just up to his old tricks.....same old....same old.shats own real syrupnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1249569588037368037.post-47113287280345941232011-10-16T01:59:33.156+02:002011-10-16T01:59:33.156+02:00@ Shat's own: Good point, but there was a tim...@ Shat's own: Good point, but there was a time when we thought "Do I wear a toupee?" was as far as we'd get.<br /><br />@ST: The Lost Years Piece would win any toup-off on style points, ease of maintenance while living in a van, plus, it is resistant to killer spiders.<br /><br />Random rug ramblings:<br />For the new book, "Shatner Rules," the remark about Bill's hair leads me to believe that "rules" is a noun, rather than a verb. Shatner is defining the rules of engagement for toupee discussions. It is literally his hair -- he has the receipt! Just like an amputee may refer to his prosthesis with a possessive pronoun, the Shat claims his synthetic hair as his own.<br /><br />I was curious to know exactly how much time Shatner has spent acquiring, maintaining, applying and removing toupees over the years. It must be significant. This video of a lace application lasts over 8 1/2 minutes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0vvxd6kXAQ ...and that's only putting on the front! Interestingly, this video has a toupological easter egg between 0:12 - 0:14, revealing a blackboard with a lengthy equation, based on the 2nd law of thermodynamics. We see where ln(V2/V1) is the natural logarithm of the ratio of expanded volume to the initial volume, but the log is preceded by a curious constant, R-sub-S. Perhaps the s stands for Shatner. If so, then this "Shatner Constant" may represent the fluidic behavior of toupee glue under a hair system.Ratty Lost Years Piecenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1249569588037368037.post-32253159705384836392011-10-15T19:46:59.404+02:002011-10-15T19:46:59.404+02:00i think that shatner, should be sent to a toupee a...i think that shatner, should be sent to a toupee awareness group, so he can be fully aware of that thing, bolted to the top of his head.

That got me believing that shatner wears a toup! So for well over 30 years i have known about the toup. Never thought it went back so far.but when about 15 years ago, i saw a video clip of him "singing" taxi that was from about 1970, i thought the hair did'ot look right, so i thought it must have started around then....boy was i ever wrong! thanks to this site, its opened my eyes, and i would like to thank both, @tintorera and @ thomas jefferson curly, who have helped, with their info to make this such a great update. And @stallion cornell, i do see your point the shat is a smart guy so this could be an admission non-admission, of lack of hair......what a smart swine that shat is...lolshats own real syrupnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1249569588037368037.post-13401915002029773132011-10-12T18:55:35.304+02:002011-10-12T18:55:35.304+02:00It might be fun to create those kid's card gam...It might be fun to create those kid's card games for Bill Shatner's toupees: eg.

The roast made it impossible to ignore the issue completely, but Bill does the next best thing. Nowhere does he use the term "toupee," nor is he willing to quote anyone else using that word. <br /><br />Every reference in the book is made to his "hair," not to his toup. <br /><br />I believe he does this in the hopes that those not in the know could be persuaded that the roast gibes were directed at his hair's color or style, not its syntheticness.Elder Samuel Bennetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11693549213767747968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1249569588037368037.post-21313579421099187622011-10-10T21:59:05.672+02:002011-10-10T21:59:05.672+02:00i am amazed that, no one has picked up, on bills h...i am amazed that, no one has picked up, on bills hair comments.

And lets be honest, it was bills book, on his terms so lets never forget that.....hey william is joking about his toup, that in itself is absolutely priceless, the captain locks jab is talking about the hair, as those its no part of him.....this is done very much in a "why not" way.
