Happy Birthday William Shatner

On my first trip to New York in Spring of 2000, I was in the Rockefeller building to attend a taping of Late Night with Conan O' Brien (just 2 days before Andy Richter left the show). In the main lobby guarding the entrance to 6 elevators was an NBC employee who I kept thinking looked a lot like William Shatner. Moments later, the actual William Shatner walked through with a handful of bodyguards surrounding him. He vanished into an elevator in a matter of seconds, but he was there long enough for me to make no mistake about who he was. Pretty funny.
