Today is Patrick Stewart’s 67th birthday.
I’m a long-time fan, and I still rue the day the Star Trek TV franchise ended. I don’t go to Star Trek conventions or dress up like a Klingon at Halloween or anything — I’m not that kind of a fan — but sometimes I just wanna watch an episode of Star Trek. Fortunately for me, Spike TV, the “macho guy” channel, offers afternoon reruns of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
What’s the appeal? Can’t be that bald dome…though my Dad was bald…hmm. Maybe it’s the British accent and the fact that we both enjoy a nice cuppa Earl Grey (or at least his character, Captain Jean Luc Picard, did).
A couple years ago in Las Vegas, I ran into Patrick Stewart. He was gracious enough to let me get this souvenir shot. If he appears a little stiff, there’s a reason: we were at Madame Tussauds.

You two make a lovely couple, really.
I just posted about my favorite bold hottie as well. Mine has an Aussie accent, which is almost British, right?
