It's never too soon to shop for Shatner!

With the holidays coming up, it's never too early to put together your wish list or start planning gifts for the cool, saucy nerds in your life. May I just suggest that everyone buy at least one copy of this?


It's called The Shatner Show, and I found it on a nifty blog called SFBayGirl. The book, which is published by a Canadian design company called Upper Case, features 76 images "inspired by the life and career of Mr. Shatner" as well as a slew of quotes. And let's face it, wherever and whenever Shatner quotes are involved, there's going to be some fun . The book retails for $35 and can be purchased here.

Did you know that The Washington Post has an online "Lost" book club? Well, neither did I until today. The point of the club is to ease the pain of not having new "Lost" episodes until January 2000-and-forever by reading books mentioned on the series or books that are influential to the series. They just finished their first selection, Watership Down, which Sawyer has been seen reading twice to date. Here's arecap of their first online discussion.
