Well, Trudy, the show's from the '60s when they had to be fairly careful about showing anything sexual (remember married couples in their twin beds?). And besides, we all know Kirk's OTP is Spock.
Come on. You drop by for a cup of coffee, and the world's not ending? Please.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
His OTP is TOTALLY Spock. I'm more convinced than ever. I can't recall even the POSSIBILITY of Kirk having actually laid a hot alien (besides, of course, Spock).
Maybe Kirk is suffering from deep homophobic denial "I'm not really into a GUY, I just dig aliens. See? I'll make out with six more of them. Besides, Spock isn't even human. Do he and she really apply to Vulcans? Or are we just using them for rhetorical convenience?"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Have you, by any chance?
Not that I know of. Although I did see a suspicious "TV Repair" truck parked out in front this morning, with a giraffe wearing sunglasses and a fedora behind the wheel....

Technically, he's half-human. In other words, a mutt, like Obama....

brillig
does Captain Kirk ever seal the deal
I remember that episode, and if I recall, there's a scene after a cut where Kirk is putting on his boots. Which insinuates . . .
I read somewhere that the crew gets turned into dodecahedrons so that they didn't have to hire a bunch of extras to play all the people who would be on the ship being held hostage.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
He got a foot massage? I'm shocked!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Happy Birthday, ChiKat!!

An alien foot massage!
Now I'm picturing the foot massage discussion scene in Pulp Fiction, but with aliens talking about Kirk and foot massages....

Punishingly Intricate
One of my photos from Hawaii got used in Schmap's travel guide.
They used one of mine for this ice cream parlor in Chicago. Speaking of, Happy Birthday, ChiKat!
I wish I was in Hawaii right now. It is grey and duhrizzley here today. A friend of mine is on her way there right now. So jealous.

Happy Birthday, ChiKat!
Apparently Leif has a bit of a crush going. He's tried (and failed) to scare a girl in his class with a rubber snake and a rubber spider. My wife asked him why he likes her and he said because she's good looking. Then she asked him if he liked her for any other reasons and he said "No, she's kinda mean." Yep, he's a boy.
