We geeks seem to have a peculiar attachment to quantifying things. It’s why our games involve complicated character sheets, or scoresheets or little plastic thingies for putting wedges in. I’d go so far as to say that, were any of us inclined to get into a bar fight, we’d first try to calculate the other [...]

A mere year after the highly acclaimed "See You Tonight" album, Mr. Donald Sheffey hits us with his follow-up album which is equally as tasty as before. Donald Sure is, as his CD Baby bio rightly says giving music back to the people. Donald is one of those rare commodities in the music world these days - young, gifted and unfettered by the negativity and diktats of the major label conglomeration....

Oprah's announcement that her show may end its 25-season run in 2011 was almost enough to unseat "New Moon" as the top trending topic of the Twitter-Wood feed today. Kevin Nealon and Wil Wheaton both had a opinions on her possible bow out of syndication, while Eli Roth and Kevin Smith helped keep "Twilight" alive [...]

I don't have any photoshop skills, but for those on my flist who do, here's a challenge. Turn this Wil Wheaton into a girl! It shouldn't be too hard, just long hair, a bit of make up. He just looks so androgynous here that I want my theory that he'd make quite a pretty girl proven. Come on, get your photoshop out and GO!

I recently watched the movie "Toy Soldiers", and yes, I am willing to admit I bought and watched it because it had Wil Wheaton in it. I was therefore very dissapointed when he died, poor dear, as the only one of the good guys, even. Random teacher doesn't count. (Also, should anyone write the fic I suggest below, please don't make Spock share Wil's fate!) However, I couldn't get over how...

Tim Allen (a great performance here - if you don't appreciate him already, you will after this) plays Jason Nesmith, a slightly slicker version of William Shatner. Back in the day, Nesmith portrayed Peter Quincy Taggart, captain of the NSEA Protector on a show called GALAXY QUEST. GQ was unceremoniously cancelled, but…like STAR TREK…it found an afterlife via conventions and whatnot. Nesmith...

JJ Abrams' Star Trek hits DVD/Blu-ray shelves today nationwide, and if you're debating on buying the Blu-ray special edition - just do it. I got a chance to watch a sampling of the special features while hanging out at Film School Rejects headquarters the other night, and boy is this release extensive. One of the highlights of the special features is the Gag Reel. I'm not usually that into blooper...

Okay, so new Guild episode out. Codex and Fawkes sat opposite each other, and Fawkes said he had a nice view. My shipper-heart pretty much exploded, and that's not much to explode about. I just want them to happen so badly, and I don't think they will. I want fic, but I feel bad about wanting fic, because it feels like RPF, even though it isn't. As I just told requiem2adream , "They (Felicia Day...

It's interesting and entertaining to read the first-time impressions of a new TNG viewer 22 years after we made the show, especially when that viewer is reviewing my book in tandem with the episodes. It's just so delightfully meta, I couldn't *not* link to it.

Raj convinces Sheldon to enter as his partner and they quickly get to the finals where they face Wil Wheaton and Stuart. Just as Sheldon is about to finish Wil off, he tells him the story about how Wil never showed up for the autograph signing, breaking his heart.

considering how excited Sheldon (Jim Parsons) was about an autographed napkin with Leonard Nimoy’s DNA, how will he react when he meets Wil Wheaton on The Big Bang Theory?
