Wil,
I started blogging in 2005 after reading your blog for about a year. The interwebs are constanting changing and we tend to change with them. I think that a combination of Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit, Flickr, and your blog is an awesome way to communicate with the rest of the world. I'm just an average guy (geek) and I choose the medium based on the message as well. Thanks for allowing a small glimpse into your life from time to time. It reminds us that we are all alike in the end.

this post is titled Laika for some reason
When I started my blog almost ten years ago, I made a dedicated effort to write something new every day. I figured that it was good practice for me as a level zero writer, and I also knew that the only way to keep readers engaged was by providing new content all the time. As the years rolled by,...
CONGRATULATIONS Wil!!! Number 14 on the Forbes Web Celeb 25. Only 3 below Robert Scoble and 3 above Matt Drudge. You are in some pretty good company. Keep on blogging! See the article here: http://www.forbes.com/2009/01/29/web-celebrities-internet-technology-webceleb09_0129_land.html
in which my already nerdy office gets a little bit nerdier
So ... I'm not even going to try to introduce this, because I can't do it justice with my words: Yes, Angie K., who makes awesome things, figured out a way to make a freaking paint by numbers painting of the infamous Velvet Wesley Crusher painting being held by me, and then she painted it. Angi...
Wil,
This set of posts was great. Thank you. I have recently started acting in community theatre productions and it was great to get the vivid detail you described related to working on a television set. Thanks again. - Kurt
Criminal Minds: The Big Day Begins
This is the fifth of six posts (yes, I've added a post) about working on episode four, Paradise, during season four of Criminal Minds. I spoke with CliqueClack.com about some of my production experiences, and I have a gallery of images from the shoot at Flickr. Please note that I've done my best...

After seeing this post and realizing I had never seen this as a kid, I put it on my Netflix queue. My whole family watched it this past weekend. I have to say that after all the hype in the post and the comments, I was really disappointed. This movie was a snooze-fest. My wife actually fell asleep and after almost an hour, my kids (9 and 12) asked politely if we could watch something more interesting.
As a point of reference, I watched all the Rankin/Bass Christmas shows as a kid and continue to watch them now and I LOVE them. Mad Monster Party, on the otherhand, will not become a family tradition like the Christmas ones are.
happy october
Matt Fraction asks: How soon is too soon for Mad Monster Party? There is no such thing as too soon for Mad Monster Party?, Matt. BEHOLD!

Wil,
I'm involved in community theatre in the Milwaukee area and I totally get what you mean. When you work on a show with a great cast that loves being there, you just want to continue to hang out after it is over.
You see each other almost every day for 5 or 6 weeks getting ready for the show. You really form a great bond with those guys. When it's over, it feels like there is big hole to fill.
magic with the legion
Adam Wylie, who plays Braniac 5 on Legion of Superheroes, is also a magician member at the Magic Castle in Hollywood. It's a pretty big deal to be a magician member, and it's not easy. Hopeful prestidigitators have to go through a challenging and rigorous process to be accepted, and it's as big ...
