Our revels now are ended...NEXT!
Christopher Plummer, the Canadian actor who played General Chang in
Star Trek VI has written his memoirs and is on a book-signing tour (he was also in some forgettable musical in the 60s about signing mountains or something). He was in Ottawa today, so I went down to meet him and get his autograph. I was in line for about an hour, and when my turn came I had about 12.3 seconds to talk to him. I greeted him as "General Chang, sir", and asked him to write "Cry havoc, and let slip the dogs of war", although he only wrote the first two since the rest would take "all afternoon", according to him. Fair enough, it's a long line. I had time to ask if his voice had the same resonance at 30 that it does now, and he said something like "Oh yes, incredible resonance" and then I was gone. When I looked at the page he signed, I found he'd actually written something that looked like "Steve- Cry Hovas, Cleecfphe Pluu(Squiggle)" (see picture - it's kinda fuzzy, but you get the idea). Kinda rushed, but still, it's another name to add to my list of Famous People I've Briefly Been Within A Metre Of. http://i675.photobucket.com/albums/v...hasm/Chang.jpg http://i675.photobucket.com/albums/v...hasm/Hovas.jpg
