George Takei [^]
Can be quite funny and does get some amusing images on his Facebook page that might make you chuckle. Worth a look every now and again.

Careful. Some might consider a link to FaceBook abusive. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Then they have the option not open the link.

You have the option to tell us that it's facebook link.
Now I have to go to the trouble of deactivating my account again.

You could always hover over the link and read the status bar if you're that bothered.

George rocks! Loved it when he would go on the Howard Stern show, for the day.

I like George a lot, he is funny and quite witty.
I like this joke from his site;
Note to my brethren with pregnant women in their life: do not, repeat, do NOT refer to their brisk walk as a 'turbo waddle'.

Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?
Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.
I'm not crazy, my reality is just different than yours!

No, he is not funny.
No, he doesn't have amusing images on his FB page.
As such, neither he nor they not worth my time to look every now and then.
Either that, or Peanut Butter & Sardine sandwiches are delicious when served with cow manure. <<--- Now, *THAT* is funny!!

Absolutely. There was some rumor a few years ago about him being a Captain on a new Star Trek movie. Would have loved to see that, but it doesn't seem to have ever been made?

I seem to recall him being addressed as Captain Sulu in the very last Star Trek movie with the original cast. No?
The difficult we do right away...

True, but I had heard (from his facebook page actually) of a movie where it was all about the adventures of Cpt. Sulu, but a quick google turned up nothing.

I wonder if this[^] is the film you talk of.

IIRC, that movie was under consideration after Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country was made. The decision was made to switch to the Next Generation cast at that point.
I would have enjoyed seeing a 'Captain Sulu' movie. George's role, brief as it was, in The Undiscovered Country was fun.

Now I've seen it, I could have thought of that.

oh yeah, heat sinks work to absorb heat, too!
ka-ching!

Yeah, I know what geek hasn't thought about something like that waiting for dinner to cook. However if it shaves time off of every time I cook dinner, that does make a difference for me.
|
|
|
|
|
oh i think it's a terrific idea! but it's so simple and obvious (once you see it) that it makes me roll my eyes that nobody had thought of it before.

My grandma had one looking like that, for using on the wood fired stove. She never used it, she hated cleaning it.
Personally I'm wondering why pots for electric stoves aren't insulated.

There's a perfectly good reason why pans don't have heat sinks.
There's also a perfectly good reason why some people should never try to "innovate" outside of their own field.
I imagine that any chef, or even any person who does a lot of cooking, would be able to explain it -- and I'm pretty damned sure that they would never use that pan.

Seems like it belongs in the Soapbox.
|
|
|
|
|
To you, perhaps. Explain why something that is simply a news item and non-contentious or political shouldn't be common fare?
|
|
|
|
|
Hardly; it's just a news item of no political content.
Now, if I said, "I wonder if passengers from Liberia arriving in DC can get a discount on the White House tour?" That might belong in the Soapbox... 
Will Rogers never met me.
