Sorry about the link.  One of the kids found this over the weekend.  He thought the cartoon version was hysterical without knowing the history behind it.  He's a sci-fi fan and his parents were seriously into Star Trek (heck, his middle name is Tiberius if that gives you a clue), so he was totally blown away after seeing the original.

Okay... the youtube link has been marked as possibly having adult content, and requires logging in or signing up. I never knew Bill S. (James T. K.) worked blue.

As far as I could determine, the only possible reason is that he smokes a cigarette throughout the performance.
 
If you follow bsee's devilducky link and scroll down a bit, you can find the original Shatner version there as well, no registration required. Personally, I didn't find either of them worth the time (which of course implies that I did watch both...).

After about an hour after watching BOTH videos, it finally sunk in how funny that really was! Scary but funny.
Thanks for the post!
