The Thing is really great, is not about Ben Grimm
Anne and I saw The Thing last night. tl;dr: I thought it was great. It's a prequel to the 1982 John Carpenter movie, which is one of my favorite movies of all time, and easily the best Sci-Fi/Horror film ever made. Normally, I would flat out refuse to see it, because I thought it was a remake/r...

in which my son and i bottle our beer
I walked down the hallway toward the guest room, and started talking before I got to the door. "Hey, I just looked at my calendar, and I miscalculated when we should bottle our beer." I stepped off the wood floor of the hallway and onto the soft carpet we just had installed. I involuntarily squi...

Spock is not impressed that it's my birthday
During w00tstock last week, I mentioned that I was turning 38 this week. After the show, Anne told me that I was, in fact, turning 39. In the few seconds that it took me to do some math, I lost a year of my life. Apparently, this is the sort of thing that happens when you get to be my age, which...
You share your burfday w/Ken Burns, Elizabeth Dole, Peter Jennings, David Warner & Benito Mussolini. Yay!?

It's my birthday!
And I am having the best birthday, ever! Thank you to everyone who has wished me happy birthday on the Twitters, and if July 29th is your birthday too, happy birthday to you! (Image by Chuck Gamble, found at WIRED's GeekDad blog.)
Enjoyed EWW2 - keep up the good work.
Would like to see more. Perhaps one day Sheldon & EWW can team-up against a common foe.

The Wheaton Recurrence
It's Sunday afternoon as I write this. I can't publish this manually, because if I've read my call sheet correctly, I'm currently playing Dr. Isaac Parrish on Eureka. If we're on schedule, I'm working in a scene with Erica, Colin, and Neil. If my experience on the show so far is any indication, ...

Wil,
Didn't know that gay marriage was a threat to "traditional" marriage. I always thought it was the 50% plus divorce rate.
Congrats, George & Brad!

I've known George Takei and Brad Altman forever, it seems. I've never seen one without the other, and they're two of the most obviously in love with each other people I've ever been around. So I want to take a moment to congratulate them both on their marriage this weekend. It sounds like it was...

@wilw: TSA tases Loggins. McCoy examines him, turns to Messina & says, "He's dead, Jim." - 12:54 PM May 09, 2008 from web in reply to wilw.
