When Ryan was a Junior in college, he moved to a place where he couldn't have cats. Anne and I agreed to foster them until he took them back. That was nearly three years ago. When he moved across the country for his job, we officially adopted the cats we'd been fostering for years. Ryan misses t...
slower than Gail & 'Jan 27 7:28' but came by to post the Patrick Rothfuss discussion of "cool" http://www.patrickrothfuss.com/blog/2010/01/fanmail-q-coolness.html

regarding the matter of video games v. movies
I had the house to myself last night, so I could watch whatever nerdy DVD or DVR'd movie I wanted, as loud as I wanted. I've been talking about re-watching the Lord of the Rings trilogy (extended editions, of course) for a couple of months, but when I finally had a chance to get started, I ended...
I have so many Batman shirts, my wife frequently says, "Why do you have so many Batman shirts?"
oh my, that was funny. Like re-read it to make sure that's what it said then startle the cat while snortling at it funny.
My husband did Civil War, he'd been pretty much on the wagon for about 7 years before that. (Let's just not mention D&D/d20 supplements.) I have many, many of the Elf*Quest spin-offs, most unread because I didn't have time. And now those are being released online for free. (!)

hah - today I had to pick what tires to replace the ones on my 7 year old Impala. The choice came down to something (Uniroyal?) and B.F.Goodrich - which on the computer screen read as BFG.
I turned to my husband and said "How can I not get BFGs for the car!" "You're such a geek." "That's why you married me :)"

You should totally hook up with a manufacturer and make a "Wil Wheaton WC" sweater line. Assuming 'WC' isn't trademarked and won't get you in trouble. Heh, I can see you now weighing 'having my name on these hideous things' vs. 'money for X'.

It looks like the hideous sweaters I wore on TNG are making some kind of terrifying comeback. Speaking from experience, anyone wearing one of these things will find themselves unable to engage in conversation with any members of the opposite sex; on the other hand, they will find themselves abl...

best would be to just say "rest of y'all" though you could say "rest of all of y'all"...

I'm still confused over your mixed (geek/non-geek) marriage but I'm glad it works for y'all.
