10:15 Saturday Night
Just to clear up any confusion, today's title has nothing to do with this entry; I'm just listening to The Cure, and that's the song which is currently playing. Hey, by the time I finish writing this, maybe I'll change the name to "A Forest."
So the weekend was awesome. I can only share a few things with you all, because it was a bachelor party after all, and therefore The Code of Guys Has been inVoked.
What I can say is:
- Dee is getting an awesome husband out of my friend Darin.
- The Rum Jungle at Mandalay Bay is really cool, even of you can't stand rum.
- Interestingly enough, Caius is completely full of shit, and it's only a matter of time before Ron moves into a cabin in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by landmines and razor wire.
- For the first time EVER I won money in Vega$. That's right, Vega$ can still kiss my ass, but I have 80 of Vega$'s bucks, so I only have about 2,020 to go before I'm back to even over my lifetime.
- On Sunday morning, this cute girl comes running over to me, and says, "Stop! I have to tell you something! You are so hot!"
So I got that going for me, which is nice. - I have a new motto for Excalibur: It's Laughlin on the Strip!
- That thing they say about making sure you re-hydrate after having "just a bit too much to drink: is totally, completely, 100% true. Oy.
It was wonderful to get away from everything, and just be stupid for 2 days. It was awesome to call Shennanigans on Caius, watch Mike pass out fouls and penalties, bowl at 2AM because we could, and spend 5 bucks to play Pai Gow Poker for 90 minutes.
I even found my funny while I was gone, which was an unexpected bonus.
Speaking of funny, and pretty cool, Something Awful wrote a thing all about yours truly today. Sure, it's not a 21 year-old girl telling me I'm hot, but I'll take what I can get.
Well, I guess if I was going to change the title, I'd be calling it "Primary," but I'm too lazy to do that, so 10:15 Saturday Night it shall remain.

How did you know she was 21? There's more to that story, isn't there, Wil.

Props for taking back the $$. Vegas stole lots of my money weekend before last, knowing you got some back makes me feel a little better.

Sweet deal!

Hey happy to hear that you found your funny!

Awesome mojo™ for Wil. It's amazing what a weekend of being drunk with a bunch of guys will do for you, isn't it?
Posted by: Andy | April 29, 2002 3:44 PM
Hey Wil, congrats on being in Entertainment Weekly, its a cool article on your new show Arena on G4.
Maybe I'll get it in Wichita. Hope so anyway.
God Bless, Strabolgi

How very cool. I was at rumjungle the weekend before you. I got some awesome digital pics of the bar. Did you like the food. I HIGHLY recommend the place, even though I prefer Red Square's vodka!!!
Did you catch the waitresses at Aureole?

congrats of the finding of the funny...we knew you could do it!
at least you guys weren't going around telling each other you were "money"...or maybe you were...

Wil's still got the mojo.

Good thing about friends is that they can force you to drink water and you hate them for it then but later you thank them when your hangover isn't as bad....

Hey Wil,
Me Again, The newest person, I guess. Glad the bachleor party went well, I myself have never been to one( MAYBE BECAUSE I'M A GIRL?) But it's cool to hear what goes on in them! Hehe!
About the something awful thing... Im confused as to what the write? Truth? Tabloids? WILSON CRUSHER?????
When I read your journal entries, I still can't belive you are the same guy who acted on Star Trek as Welsey, my fav charcter!
Anywayz, I'm supose to stay on topic here... So, glad you had a great weekend. Got hungover? From you comment there, I take it so. Ouch. Never been there either, but sounds like it hurts.
But I'm gald you got a chance to get away from it all, because people need that! I know how it feels.
Cya!

good call on the Excalibur. I worked there for almost 3 years. I got a 12 cent raise, hot damn, why did I quit?!
good job findin' the funny, it had to be somewhere.
Oh, I'm not 21, I just look young. (just kidding)

Very glad to hear that you had a great weekend.
Like everyone else, I'm also glad that you got your funny back.

"Wheaton breaks this boundary by not shaking his girlish ass on a webcam and not degrading himself with porn links and gross-out pictures. He seems humble, self-effacing even, but if he's expecting to entertain people with melodramatic opinion pieces and anecdotes from his personal life then he obviously feels that it's important enough to share."
BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!! Obviously, the writer hasn't seen the BAC thread of the sopabox. ;)
Posted by: Toonces | April 29, 2002 4:09 PM
If it makes any difference... I'm 22 and think you're hot!!
Posted by: tats | April 29, 2002 4:11 PM
I'm 20 and think you're hot. I lurve you, Wil!! You seem like such a nice person. (First time posting but I had to chime in.)
And yeah, I am here because of SomethingAwful.

The funny's back AND you won money? Helluva weekend, Wil!

Hey Wil
AVS have the MOJO tonight!!
Posted by: Greg | April 29, 2002 4:40 PM
Nope. I think you found MY Funny.
And how it got all the way to Vega$, I dunno.
Bah-dum-bum.
Posted by: patrick | April 29, 2002 4:41 PM
if i saw you, wil, i'd say the same thing...damnnnn!!! YOU ARE FINE!
Posted by: KED | April 29, 2002 4:44 PM
Well, I can't say I'm surprised that you found your funny. I think we all knew that you needed to get away for awhile as you had been letting the pressure of constantly having to be'up' get your shorts in a knot bigtime. To have said so at the time, however, would I think, have rubbed salt into the wound.

"So I got that going for me, which is nice." -I found this bit-o-wit so dry I would have laughed 'til I cried (but I could...because it was so dry). Anyways, glad you're back, in better spirits, and, funny.

I was in Las Vegas too, so was X-prez Bill Clinton and the Offspring, but unfortunately I was at The Joint with Tenacious D. Its monday and tired---stayed away from south strip, dawm.

I went to the Rum Jungle on Westwood Studio's (Makers of Command and Conquer) dime and man what a night. I love LV and am proud to say that I have never lost money when visiting there. Oh yeah, I have never gambled either :P
How many people stopped you for autographs there Wil?

"Somehow launch himself into space for real with a handheld camera and film the first ever science fiction show shot entirely in space. The plot can be about how much he misses going to White Castle, the fact that the satellite phone he has to use costs 50 dollars a minute, and recollections about all the times he talked with his son about how much Linkin Park rules."
I almost peed my pants when I read this!
Glad you had a good weekend with the boys.
I hate Vegas (I always lose), but I'm happy to hear that it was good for you. (what with all the 21 year olds)
Congrats on the funny finding.
Posted by: Haley Comet | April 29, 2002 5:30 PM
Its funny how those women in Las Vegas can be so complimetary.
One time, when I was in Las Vegas, this lady asked me if I wanted a Date. I said: "A Date?" & She said "Sex for money" I told her that I did not charge anything for Sex. She did not seem too amused

Wonderful!!! You found your Funny. I new you would. It's nice to be able to let loose with friends sometimes. I want to go party now. Blah back to work. Keep your spirits up Wheaton. There is always a way. :-)

* does Mexican wave cos Wil found his funny.*
I quote from "City Slickers":
Mitch: "Look what I found!" (smiles)
Wife: "Where was it?"
M: "Colorado!! It's ALWAYS the last place you look!"
Glad you had a good time on your mates stag weekend. Lord knows you needed it!
Posted by: Foxychik | April 29, 2002 5:52 PM
Hey Wil,
I'm 19 and I think you're hot too, even better now than when you were on TNG! Hope that makes you smile.
Posted by: Ravengirl | April 29, 2002 6:05 PM
Wil, you have great taste in music. My husband gives you props for the Batman Original Score soundtrack, he is a collector of scores has over 2,000. Anyway glad you had a good time, I never win in Vegas either but I did get married there to a great husband, so I know how lucky your friends (wife) feels.. By the way when I was 15 I thought you were sexy, now twelve years later I can only say things and people get better with age!
Posted by: Parilesemonster | April 29, 2002 6:12 PM
This 29 yo thinks you're hot and that's much better than a 21 yp because I've got much more experience on me.
wink wink.
Posted by: glittergirl | April 29, 2002 6:31 PM
Finally! I've discovered someone who actually been to the Rum Jungle. I'm glad it got a good review since I was planning to check it out next trip (June). Then again, that Red Square looks pretty cool too. Mmmm... vodka. :-)
Glad to hear you won some $$$, Wil. That's always a nice bonus in Vegas. I've never understood that Pai Gow Poker game though, and everyone who plays it looks so serious that I'm too intimidated to sit down. Then again, it's generally not a good idea to gamble at a game you don't know. :-)
Posted by: Mandy | April 29, 2002 6:35 PM
Read the 'something awful' column before you had posted today, it was fab. I had to giggle. Incidentally, got into 'something awful' through 'wwdn'. Which is the way it should be.
Everyone have a great rest-of-the-day (it is almost 2pm here) ;D
Posted by: Tiana | April 29, 2002 6:51 PM
I enjoyed that SA article. Mainly cause it was quite true. Must be nice having a bunch of computer geek chicks telling you you're hot! God damn I wish I had nerdy ugly chicks telling me I was hot instead of the usual good looking ones.
Posted by: Hadez | April 29, 2002 7:40 PM
Ha!
upgrading nutscrape did another thing good for me... I can post in here now. Whoo-hoo!
Anywayz...
If you really want, I'll be 21 in January, I'll tell you that you're hot then.
Posted by: ayngil | April 29, 2002 7:56 PM
Hi there,
Always come by to read your comment section. Im 23 years old. Anyways, Just wanted to let you know Wil (if this means anything) That you are hot guy :) Hopefully you dont mind me saying so!
Sincerely
Rachael
Posted by: Rachael | April 29, 2002 8:03 PM
Aw, Wil. You should have let me know. I was in Vegas at the Excalibur with a bunch of friends! We could have had a drink. Actually, I lost about $80 which makes me think that you've got it, especially since I was at Pai Gow too. It's a good thing I didn't run in to you, I probably wouldn't have gambled, meaning you'd be down $80 and I'd still have mine. Dang.
Glad you had a good time! (We did too!)
Take care!

Go Bears!

Re-hydration, or, becoming one with your inner SpongeBob. Pass me another gallon of orange juice, please.

We didn't stay at Excalibur, thank bob.
We stayed elsewhere. We just went to Excalibur for the Cold Stone Creamery.

cold stone creamery... got one of those near moi.. i get the white chocolate w/brownie chunks and bananas.. man.. im hungry :(
Posted by: hops | April 29, 2002 9:30 PM
Hey Wil, if it makes you feel any better, I'm just 13 days younger than you (yes I'll be 30 this year too)and I think your hot. In fact, I've thought you were hot ever since Star Trek:TNG.I also think it's just a matter of time before Hollywood knows what your faithful web posse already knows:That you are very talented and very funny.
Glad you found your funny. Sometimes the best way to find your funny is to have fun.
Posted by: vanessa | April 29, 2002 9:35 PM
Hey Wil how can I get 18 year old girls to think I'm hot??
Posted by: hops | April 29, 2002 10:19 PM
Damn, someone already beat me to it. Anyway, I am also a 22 year old chick who thinks you're very hot.
I'm glad to hear that you got your funny back, too. That's always a good thing.
Oh yeah - this is completely off topic - I noticed the other day that you listed *me* as a favorite person at the Amazon.com. How freaking cool is that? So I decided I'm gonna buy you something...while I still have my employee discount there. Hehehe. They forgot to take it away when I was fired, so I'm taking full advantage of it now!
Posted by: Heidi | April 29, 2002 11:16 PM
Now Wil, what did we discuse about deriving happiness from the opinions of others! Ahhh hell who am I kidding, we all need a good ego boost every once in a while. I thought the Something Funny article was freakin hilarious. Although not too many people have caught on to the dry humor. (cough*lily*sneeze, hiccup) Stay true to your tranny kids, eh? You the man, cool guy!

Hey, I've been telling you that you're cute for the past god knows how long and all of a sudden you listen to someone. Please!
And how did you know she was 21? the rest of the story would be greatly appreciated!
Posted by: Sally | April 30, 2002 11:24 AM
Somethingawful, very amusing. I didn't know your wife was trans... that's very progressive!
I like you more now.
Posted by: leaux | April 30, 2002 11:54 AM
Wil, you're the hottest of hotties who were on Star Trek and have websites. In my fantasy world, I chill with you and Levar and Patrick, and you make funnies, Levar summarizes books for me, and then Patrick reads them out loud with voices.
Posted by: Kimberly | May 2, 2002 9:03 AM
Hey Wil, you should get into a band. You like music so why the heck not? You like the 21 year old hotties, and you have lots of 'em just in this comment box, so think of it this way: playing in a band is just a multiplier -- more fans, bigger X. If your band sucks that's a 2X multi, so you see where I'm going (you do the math).
You should play drums; drummers are crazy, and Keanu's already on bass... and Kevin Bacon's on guitar. Just think of the prospects...
"This one's for all the ladies..."
