[B style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"]LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- An online casino has a piece of Capt. Kirk.[/B]

Actor William Shatner has sold his kidney stone for $25,000, with the money going to a housing charity, it was announced Tuesday.

Shatner reached agreement Monday to sell the stone to GoldenPalace.com.

"This takes organ donors to a new height, to a new low, maybe. How much is a piece of me worth?" he said in a telephone interview.

funny thing was he had already promised to give his kidney stone to Jimmy Kimmel when he appeared on his show a week or two earlier.
