Announcing The Day After and Other Stories
This is one of the scariest things I've ever done: I'm releasing a short collection of short fiction, called The Day After and Other Stories. Last year, I collected a few short stories I'd written and sold them as a chapbook at PAX. It was a scary thing for me to do, because while I feel confide...
Wait, what? Wil wrote to YOU, too? I guess that means we are both special!!

So, some of you may know that Evil Wil Wheaton is tormenting Sheldon Cooper again this Thursday at 8pm on CBS ... but for those of you who don't, I made a stupid video to help you remember: In other news, I did not book the job I auditioned for last week. The feedback I got was that I ga...
Well, that Facebook Connect signin is really, really ugly. Here I am again.

Oh, that sneaky PHS. :) What a great way to help two obvious dog lovers to fall in love with yet another wonderful dog. Seamus is precious. I see a lot of fun in his eyes.
Our "used dog" Bo sends a wag and a paw-shake to Seamus and says "welcome home."

Last year Anne and I raised some money for the Pasadena Humane Society in memory of our awesome dog, Ferris. When I wrote about it here, Anne said: Just over 8 years ago, I made a right turn instead of a left out of the Home Depot parking lot. That was a turn that would change our lives forev...
Oh how wonderful. Looks like you like midcentury modern furniture, too, and this will look so great with that!
I hate carpet. We have gradually gotten rid of all of ours in our 1913 house. Much easier to clean.

Tomorrow morning, I leave for Portland, where I'll spend an all-too-brief week working on Leverage. For those of you who don't know, I'm a recurring character on Leverage. I play a computer hacker called Cha0s, who is a nemesis to the Leverage team, but especially to Hardison. I first played th...

a happy accident
A few months ago, a casting director needed to get a picture of me with my luxurious beard. Since I haven't had any headshots taken since I grew this magnificent beard, my son and I took my camera out onto the patio so he could take a quick picture that would be good enough for e-mailing on ...
From a friend on Facebook's status:
Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day.
Teach him to fish and he'll go away for at least a week every summer.
Or something like that; hers was funnier. :)

I made one and put it in your Flickr group. I took about 2 hours because I couldn't leave well enough alone and had to piece the main part. It's a gift for my daughter's Sunday school teacher.

Oh, and my neighbor has those boots that he wears while doing yard work. Every time I see him I have to repress the urge to yell "GIVE ME YOUR BOOOOOOOTS!"
This town thinks I'm weird enough as it is.

My plan to be Doctor Horrible for Halloween was disrupted when I couldn't find the appropriate lab coat and goggles anywhere. Luckily, I had a much more disturbing Plan B.

My plan to be Doctor Horrible for Halloween was disrupted when I couldn't find the appropriate lab coat and goggles anywhere. Luckily, I had a much more disturbing Plan B.
For future reference:
Dr. Horrible's lab coat is a recycled lab coat from the Ariel episode of Firefly. (Simon wore one.)
The gloves are Tillmans, about fifteen bucks.
The goggles are distressed/repainted plastic welding goggles, very inexpensive.
The boots are here: http://www.amazon.com/WHITE-SAFETY-RUBBER-BOOTS-SIZE/dp/B000VLY93M/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=hi&qid=1225550112&sr=8-4

Wil, my easily distracted mind asks this question: What year Prelude did you have?
Our first car was a 1980 Prelude. I wish we still had it.

Earlier today, I spent about an hour composing a post, filled with links to groovy stories I'd found in the last couple of days while I found links to submit to Propeller. I added brilliantly trenchant commentary to each link, in what was destined to become a post for the ages. You, dear reader...
