I saw a commercial last night that has shaken my faith in justice, the human race, a higher power, and the fundamental right of the universe to exist. The ad's real name is "Dream," but I'm calling it "Shatners in White Satin, or Fear of a Shatner Planet."

A woman applies a teeth whitener just before bed. As she falls asleep, she dreams she's Riverdancing with a multitude of white satin-clad William Shatners.

I've tried to find a screen capture of this somewhere on the Web, but I've come up empty. Consider yourselves lucky; your sanity has been spared, at least until this sinister commercial sneaks up on you unexpectedly during a Will & Grace rerun some night soon.

If an infinite number of William Shatners doing a Celtic line dance is truly the stuff of dreams, I'm never sleeping again.
