Anyone hear this? Howard always plays clips of his laugh.
Interview:
Gary Garver Interviews From A Star Trek Convention. 8/5/02. 8:15am
Howard's Los Angeles interviewer Gary Garver went out and interviewed a couple of people including George Takei and Ricardo Montalban. First up was George Takei from the original ''Star Trek'' series. He laughed at his own answers with a very funny sounding laugh. Howard goofed on it the whole time and played the interview twice. Here are a few of the questions he asked:
* Which version of Star Trek is the best? - (Movies) ''...I would definitely say 'Star Trek 6: The Undiscovered Country' which I subtitled 'Captain Sulu to the rescue' Uh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha...''
* Are you a Trekkie or a Trekker? - ''Actually I don't make those distinction... I love Star Trek, I'm proud of Star Trek and I revel in Star Trek, so whatever that makes me, I'm that.''
* Did you ever experience William Shatner's massive ego? - (takes a pause and a deep breath) ''We worked together for what? How many years? Uh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha... Uh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha''
* Do you think that prisoners in jail should be allowed to watch television and movies while incarcerated? - ''Well, I don't see any reason why they shouldn't, especially if it's Star Trek, it might make them honest. Uh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha...''
* Do you think all these child molesters and killers be put to death? - ''...Well, no... this is a personal, political issue with me. I don't believe in the capital punishment. So certainly I don't believe in child molesters and... I mean as heinous, as horrific, as despicable as those crimes are, you don't want to reduce yourself to the same level by killing another human being. I think we need to be above all that now. That's the Star Trek philosophy.''
* Do you think it's right that Ted Williams is being frozen like a TV dinner? - '' Uh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.. You eat him? Uh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha''
* Do you wish that we could destroy the Arabs in the Mid East with a spaceship like the Enterprise? - ''Well, you heard what I said about capital punishment... Or, was it you that asked about capital punishment... I thought it was you since you're asking all the off-the-wall questions... Uh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha...''
* Did you have homosexual feelings about anyone on ''Star Trek''? - ''No, do you? Uh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha... Anyone who brings it up certainly is questionable... you've got nice muscles! Uh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha''
* Do you ever pick up chicks at gigs like this? - ''You mean, uh, little baby chickens? Uh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha''
* Do you think Uhura had a big ass? - ''Uh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha... She may be here. I think it'd be more prudent for me to say 'no comment. Uh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha''
Howard said he could listen to that guy all day long. The laugh was hilarious and he did it after almost every answer he gave.
EDIT: morkinva has the sound clips on his website (search here for Howard and look under the babaa-booey thread). I don't feel right linking to his site without his permission. I can email someone the clips if they want to host it though.
