Oy. Shatner looses (intentional tori, here) (What’s a tori? A Miss Spelling, of course) his pants and then loses his pants.

The Trouble With Trousers

Toronto Sun

Star Trek legend William Shatner was left nursing a bruised ego when his trousers fell down during an airport security check in front of dozens of fellow travellers.

The actor was queuing at Los Angeles International Airport to catch a flight to South Africa when he was singled out for a search by officials.

He had decided to wear loose-fitting clothing for the journey and did not have a belt holding his pants up – and he was left red-faced when they fell down, exposing his underwear.

Shatner says, “It was awful to have people looking at me with my pants down, probably the most embarrassing thing that’s ever happened to me… It was a long flight so I wanted to wear loose clothing because I didn’t want anything to bind me.”

    Tsk, tsk.
    Bill, when your drawstring pants fall down, it’s a SIGN!

    For the love of Kirstie Alley, lose some weight, man.
    Or order some muumuus.

    That’s right, TSA. Search Captain Kirk and then let 20 people who look exactly like the 9/11 hijackers pass through security just to show that you are not racial profiling.

    The TSA needs to lay off harassing the 70 something year-old white guys and concentrate on Mohamed Raheem sweating in the corner with dynamite up his rectum.

    I wonder if his phaser was set on stun? Captain Kirk should have known better. By loosing his pants, it allowed everyone who saw this “To go where no man has gone before!”

    Maybe it was a political statement…

    Sounds more Denny Crane that Captain Kirk, though.
