While you're there Wil, give an air-high-five to these guys:

Same guys who published Flapjacks and Sasquatches.
Is it really only 2 days until GenCon? Yes. Yes it is.
On Wednesday, I'm heading to GenCon in Indianapolis. I had a great time when I was there before, and I'm looking forward to attending this year. Here's what you need to know, from GenCon: Wil will be signing autographs in the Autograph Area of the Exhibit Hall, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday mo...
Flapjacks and Sasquatches!

New Tabletop! Say Anything with Matt Mira, Jonah Ray, and Josh Cagan!
Casual party games are a great infection vector for introducing tabletop gaming to our non-gaming friends. For experienced players, they're also fantastic palate cleansers between games of Puerto Rico and Power Grid. This week's new Tabletop is a really fun, quick, easy, and profoundly silly par...
Indeed... should be facebook.profile.24601 or something interesting at least, if not my name.
Even more adventures in Homebrewing
Northern Brewer sells these recipe kits that aren't clones of commercial beers; they are the actual recipe from the brewery, using the same grains, hops, and yeast strains. Today, I homebrewed one: a Surly Cynic Pro Series Kit. Surly is a brewery in Minneapolis, and the Cynic is a Saison. What's...
Are you considering the Surly Bender kit in the future?
Coffee and Beer in one pint.

I will also support Operation StarChild by planting a tree (to improve out atmosphere).
Now, if someone could find a way to add mass to the Earth to increase the gravity well so children won't go flying off into space...
A troubling realization
This comes to us from my son, Ryan Wheaton. Click it to embiggen: Click to Embiggen Footnote: If there was any question that love -- not biology -- makes a family, look no further than my son's delightfully twisted sense of humor, which I think I helped foster.
Another piece of cube art for me to enlighten my colleagues with. :)

Because you linked your FB account here and for some reason it doesn't like to reveal the names of said account. As seen by my name here.
Greetings from Australia!
Greetings from Australia! I've been here for something like four days (I say "something like" because the time travel thing that happens when you cross the International Date Line is still confusing me), and I just love it. Anne and I are in Melbourne, which I've found to be an absoulutely wonder...
Glad you were able to get it locked down and purchases refunded.
Too bad you couldn't set it sound Red Alert and start screeching about a warp core breach. Or possibly set some of the internal capacitors to overload.
Someone found my Kindle on the airplane this weekend. I'd really like it back.
I left my Kindle on an airplane this weekend (post-convention exhaustion will do that to you), and someone found it. I know that someone found it, because they've been using my account to buy games and books. Based on the purchases, I'm fairly sure the person who found my Kindle (which is named ...
Mmmm.. barbecued intern... tastes of chicken.
Flapjacks and Sasquatches. Taught my son to play, who then taught my mom and dad to play. :)
This is my new show, Tabletop
Last summer, Felicia Day asked me if I wanted to develop a show together for her new premium YouTube channel, Geek and Sundry. Spoiler alert: I said yes. She asked me if I wanted to do a show about gaming, maybe a review show or something like that. "I think it would be more fun do somet...
We've been getting Chick tracts all week long. I guess in "honor" of Halloween.
Just in time for Halloween: the animated Dark Dungeons
If you're of a certain age, you may remember the infamous Jack Chick tract Dark Dungeons. For those of you who don't, here's the tl;dr from the Escapist: Dark Dungeons is possibly the most widely distributed piece of anti-game propaganda in the history of gaming. It was first produced by Chick ...

My condolences for your loss Wil.
through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes
My dog Ferris, who was rescued from a bus stop in Monrovia by my wife Anne almost exactly 8 years ago, had a heart attack and died this morning. It happened very quickly, and I was with her, which is supposed to make me feel better, but at this moment all I can feel is nearly-unbearable sorrow, ...
