Always enjoy reading this. I always seem to get a Jean Shepherd feel from it; that's a good thing.
light fuse, put on ground, and get away
I'm in Portland, working on Leverage. There is so much Cha0s in this episode, I've worked very long hours, and haven't had the time or energy to write about production (that's a good thing), and my plan to recap the week yesterday was foiled by complete exhaustion and a Doctor Who marathon. If y...
Those of you who enjoyed John Scalzi's interview with a stick of butter may also enjoy Mike Nelson's Socratic Dialogue with a Steak:

John Scalzi interviews a stick of butter
Because, really, why wouldn't you interview a stick of butter?
Those of you who dig on ol' skool D&D could do much worse than check out Troll Lord's Castles & Crusades (http://www.trolllord.com/cnc/index.html) which is essentially 1st Edition AD&D (complete with Barbarians and Cavaliers!) OGL'ed and brought into the 21st century, mechanics-wise.
this isn't a book; it's a time machine
This is where it all began for me: the D&D Basic Rules Set. When I opened this book in 1983, I had no idea that it would change my life. Back then, if you told 11 year-old me that I'd be 36 and wiping tears from my face because reading it brought back so many joyful memories, he would have cal...
I'm your soulmate, Homer!
at long last, your wait to see me, wil wheaton, interviewed at comic-con has come to an end
I'm home from Comic-Con, and in that weird state where I'm too tired to be coherent, but too adrenalized to go to sleep. It's pretty common to feel this way (like I've eaten a bag of Guatemalan Insanity Peppers) at the end of a long day at a con. There's an accumulative effect, though, for epic ...

"Oh, I envy you, Ryan... It is just the beginning of the adventure for you."
i am so very proud of him
Ryan was just a tiny little towhead when I met his mom. Though he doesn't carry any of my DNA, over the last eleven years, he's become my son in all the ways that matter. He graduated from high school yesterday afternoon. My wife and I spent all of our free time this week preparing our house ...

You could be a young Qui-Gon Jinn, with that contemplative "This planet has magnificent fauna" look on your face.
Now let's hear your best "ANAKIN, NO!!!"
man and wife
My dad snagged this picture of me and Anne during our trip to the San Diego Wild Animal Park last month. I just love it.

Way-cool surreal-type experience of my evening: As I'm reading this post, Queen's Princes of the Universe randomly shuffles onto Winamp... which happens to be a pretty HAWESOME celebration/triumph-type soundtrack, that shant be denied.
Here you belong, Unlce Willy!
finally back to me
Remember the audition I had last week at Nickelodeon? I had a crush on this project as soon as I read the breakdown. After I met the director and grokked what sort of story she wants to tell, I was hopelessly in love with the project. I really, really hope I get this job. I don't spend a lot of ...

Way to wrap the post with a HAWESOME quantum physics reference.
(I'd watch.)
I want you to remember this face. This is the guy behind the guy behind the guy
How about if I wait six weeks to call. I could tell her I found her number while I was cleaning out my wallet, I can't remember where we met. I'll ask her what she looks like and then I'll ask her if we fucked. How about that? Would that be money? -Mike, Swingers There aren't any real develo...
