WIL WHEATON dot NET: 1.5

WOW! am I really first? that's never happened before! I'm going to go explore all the linky's now

PIE!

That's what you get for spending so much time at the beach. Watch for seagulls next time.

Now that I think about it, every time you've been in Sacramento, you HAVE had that shirt on. Still, keep wearing it. It seems to prevent geese from flying into your Fabio-like head.

Our best to Anne,

sims

Very nice startrek.com review, Wil.

The Fark "Lee Harvey Oswald" composite was my favorite, LOL funny ... a witty dig at your posture (in that shot, so to speak) and expression.

Actually, I was sooo tempted to post there... but I respect you too much to follow my plans...

wil,
in some self help book somewhere it says it only matters that YOU like the shirt. it's a lie. what really matters is that the people who read your website like your shirts.

that said, the shirt rocks!

OH my God! Wil!! Are you trying to KILL yourself, or what??

Imagine appearing in a (shudder) RED-SHIRT at a TREK convention...

If that isn't inviting a lightening bolt from Baal then I don't know what! :)

Can you believe that NOT ONE PERSON got the "Red Shirt" joke?

I'm so sorry, Chris is right.
Where can I bid on a shirt?

you should auction that shirt off. un autographed of course I'd want to wear it if I won it.

Wil, The Fark thing had me in stitches. Do you really think you need a new shirt? Nah...
Best, Rob

I think I have socks that look like that. Don't they come with pants too? And a hat? I bet you have the suit as well.

Hey Will...Its not the shirt Im worried about,nice monkey pants are they "COURDEROY"?

HEH HEH HEH

Oh by the way nice reference to (baal)-RUST but how many people do you think know who he is?

Wil, your sexy blows us out of the water. I would die a happy man if I were Farked...

Don't worry, I like the shirt :D

The FARK stuff is hilarious.

Still wishin' you could have a bigger part in a future ST movie and have the WES character resolved. (just doin' some late night bitchin')

Is there anyway I could add this wish to my AMAZON wish list?!? HUMPH!

Be good.
-rhinohead

OK, that's hilarious! And I totally missed the red-shirt joke too. And Startrek.Com was COMPLETELY right. You were great.

wil,

Nice review, dude. You'll have to do a con on the East Coast sometime. Or come to Pittsburgh to watch the Pirates lose.

It was cool Gates McFadden commented about you in her talk. (I like to think that se could have said "...just 14 when I met him. And a lot more famous than me.") Also liked the butter-dish gag. Hey, though, I wonder if the site was a bit premature about puting finishing touches on a book?

By the way, what are you doing up past bedtime? And when the hell do *I* sleep?

Later,

Hey who's Anne?

Glad to see your talk was so well received.
I like all of the Fark photos. Lots of great, creative stuff.

That is a Shirt that dreams are made of, I had a dream that your are going to direct the next star trek movie (the remake of the manegerie) maybe the shirt has something to do with this very wierd dream I keep on having over and over. Well if it happens to be true that shirt might be a directors shirt. Keep it for Wierd Luck

Wil, I read the review, ad that of Capt. Pickard.

I whish I could have been there..

hey, If I understand what was said with regard to
Mr. Stewart and he Lion in Winter"... you have got
to try being a part of that... maybe the part of
Richard the Lionheart...

maybe the part of "Jeffrey"

but do not take the part of "John"...

you could even be a great "Phillip" King of France

if you haven't seen this movie... rent it...

see ya at the breast cancer walk-a-thon!

Wil, all I have to say is that you looked HOT! Wear that shirt and pants combo everytime to keep my blood racing!!

:)

Don't bother about wearing the same shirt twice.
Before you know it, you'll be one of those celebrities who can only wear everything once.
You'll become like Jennifer Lopez, whose green dress is almost as famous as her bottom. Or you'll show up at conventions wearing things that, although officially named "fashion" - and red - are obviously more at ease in Victoria's Secret catalogs.
The fans will love it.
But there won't be any need for photoshop contests.

Wil,

Looks like it MIGHT be time for Anne to pick out another shirt for you. That was TFF!!

Didn't you where that shirt on Screensavers?

So no one got the red shirt joke, huh? Too bad my friend & I couldn't make it to the con, he would have gotten it, he loves jokes like that.

I don't know what I anticipate more. Reading your book or getting the chance to see you at a convention.

Hey,

Don't know who else to share this with, but a friend of mine works for a call center in Brownsville, PA, which is about 2 miles south of bum-fark Egypt. They handle calls for iomega, and priceline, among others.

She called me this morning to tell me that I should be jealous, because William Farking Shatner is stopping in to give the priceline team a pep talk or something. Perhaps it will start with "*click" This is the Captain."

Poor WFS. He'll be in a town where the pizzaria offers to deliver the pizzas unbaked so that their customers can use food stamps to pay for them, where the 4-lane highway ends in the middle of the town, where the locals drive 40 minutes to a real hospital to avoid the one that's 2 miles from town.

Seriously. I know. I used to live there.

(Incidentally, its about 10 miles away from Beallsville, PA, the town depicted in the final episode of Quantum Leap, where Donald Bellasario grew up.)

Later,

Whoops, I think D. Bellasario was from Bentleyville, about 6 mi away form Brownsville.

My Bad.

off-topic, but congrats on going over your donations goal for the breast cancer walk-a-thon.

keep the shirt, wear it to all your appearances. like the way michael moore always has a ball cap on.

Like others, I also like the shirt!

The Picard manoeuvre? Picard has a specific way of picking a wedgie? That's great. =)

Yes, it's time for a bigger rotation. You also wore that shirt on Tech TV. Keep the sneakers, though....nothing beats a great pair of chucks.

Wil loved the pics!..hilarious..I loved the one of you in a garter and high heels.OOh!! and the pic with the boys from NSYNC or is it (Backstreet BOYZ)OH Well! Who the hell cares.Its all about you baby.You are HOTT!!

Wil,

At least the shirt matched the red on the microphone, which kinda completed the ensamble.

Later oh great head monkey......

Matt......

Hey Wil, a few things-

1) I read your comments at the TNG con regarding your role being cut from Nemesis. If there is an award given for a remarkable display of grace, you should get the fucking thing, cause that was just beautiful. I would have opened up with, "Awright you cocksuckers..." but that's just me.

2) I've had in-laws at the house for a few weeks now -excruciating- and as an escape I've been watching the DVDs of TNG season one. I've been watching TNG a long time now and I still can't figure why people trashed you so much. You had a character to play, you had to play him in a certain way, and you did a damn fine job, holding your own in scenes with major talent. I guess I'll never figure out what's with all the animosity. My best guess is jealousy. All the guys bitching now were teens or kids back then, and they were hyper-pissed that you were getting to do what they wanted to do.

3) I wish that the first person to comment on your daily musings would offer something a little deeper than, "Yay, I'm the first! Kewl!" Jesus Christ.

4) Keep up the push toward writing. The most important thing a writer has is an individual voice. When you look at most of the pathetic scribblings on the net you don't know whether to laugh or cry. Having a unique voice is vital, and you've definitely got one. There are writers who can make the most astounding adventures dull, while other can talk about taking a dump and have you totally hooked. Keep on writing, man. It'll take you places someday.

5) Hope you have a weekend free of assholes and headaches.

I didn't go to the convention, but when I saw the red shirt, I started chuckling, hoping there wasn't a "red shirt" reference. Lo and behold... there was. Too scary. The Fark PS thingy is awesome and great review too. Too bad I couldn't get my butt over to the west coast to see what sounded like a great time.

Ha ha, the photoshop pictures were funny. Fellow who did all those must have a lot of time on his hands. ;)

Boy, there are some really creative people with photoshop out there. The one with the shirt that changes color was my favorite so far.

Right on, John, I've been saying that since they first started trashing the Wesley character 15 years ago (has it been that long?). Wil's an actor just doing his job, trash the writers and the order they decided to air the shows, if you must. The actor is not the character. Personally, I loved Wesley. He was what I wanted to be: young, smart and riding on a starship. Geordi and Data were his friends, Picard actually listened to him as a person, not as a "kid" - how great was that?

The startrek.com review was previously cited in a comments section on another post. When I checked it out, I immediately got the red shirt reference, especially because of the Wesley thing. I thought Wil was having a joke.

Don't worry about the shirt, Wil (not that you are). Wear what's comfortable. And you look good in red. We who go to conventions all have our "con clothes". (Oh, no, I just stuck myself with a label).

For what it's worth, some of us out here used to joke about Patrick Stewart's convention ensemble. For a while, he wore the same soft green shirt, blue jeans, and white running shoes to every convention I saw him at. We thought he must have pre-packed convention luggage and he only wore that shirt at conventions. Although I think I even saw the shirt on Jay Leno or David Letterman. So you're in good company.

That was funny. :) First the shirt button became undone and then you broke it off. Heh.

*Emma laughs so hard that she nearly falls off her chair*

ROTFLMAO!!! Oh crap...that pic with Wil as Dr. Frank N. Furter is too Farking funny! LOL!!

Ow. Now I have a headache.

Is that a real live Cool Grrl up there ^ ? London @ nite indeed . . .

If you get another chance at a TNG film, may Wesley become a vertebra and not a mere piece of cartilage in TNG's left little toe.

Okay, it's been quite a long while since I spewed soda on my monitor, but most of those Fark pics were hilarious, so I'm exonerated. "Cool As Ice 2"...man, I nearly messed myself.

Wil... You look good as a weather man... ever consider the occupation?

As for the shirt... great joke... and don't worry about it.... like others before me have said... It only matters that it's comfortable... Hey, everyone has their favorite shirt that they like to wear out on the town that they think they are cool in... and I must say you look pretty cool in that shirt!

I must also say that I was a great admirer of the Westley character... brought hope to a geek who had no other outlet to release the power of Geek in High School.

Craig

I was thinking the red shirt was a funny coincidence but I didn't think it was deliberate since you seem to have a penchant for the bowling shirt.

Did you notice that you got all lot of space in the review and that most of Gates' interview was about you too? That's quite a nice little compliment.

You've changed a lot in the face over the years. You don't quite look like an innocent child anymore. You're very handsome and nice looking, and I wish and hope that someday they put you in something. You're an actor worth casting.

Kristi

Did you get that button sewn back on?

The red shirt is hella cool, but I also dig that trucker mud flap one that you had on during the evening performance (and the one you wore on 'The Weakest Link')

You were definitely the highlight of the weekend for me.

Yesterday I had this strange urge to watch "Stand By Me" again so I had to go out and buy the DVD (why I didn't already own it I will never know). Damn that movie is even better than I remember. You had some priceless lines in that flick.

The best PS was that Lee Harvey Oswald one. I have been laughing at those at work all day yesterday and today.

man i have the urge to watch Stand by me

Wil, love the stuff mentioned at st website.
McFadden was sweet, and the thing you said about Patrick Stewart, Hilarious.

That PS thread is too much!

I guess you won't really have to worry about wearing that shirt again, didn't the bottom button pop off while you were on stage in Pasadena? Good review at Star Trek.com.

Awwww... our favorite little actor is all grown up...*tear*...I miss that little dead body seeker.

Wil,
First, your written entries take forever to read and then you have hours worth of pictures.
Now I have missed a great portion of a good Friday night jaaaaaaaaam.

F.G.

Dude.....isn't it the red shirted people that get killed off in the original trek???? *l* Well your far from dieing ....unless you die laughing....Which is a nice way to go I guess. Definately ebay off the shirt! Pretty please! Anyways if I had Photoshop...I'd have made you look like santa claus. Adobe products cost too much.

I enjoyed the con articles, and the Fark parody images are just hilarious!

A new thought occurred to me while I was reading again about your scene being cut from 'Nemesis'. Specifically, it seems entirely possible to me that your scene might eventually end up in that movie after all ... in a "Director's Cut" DVD of the movie that I imagine will someday appear. In fact I'd just about be willing to bet on it. Something to hopefully look forward to!

By the way, to ArtisticSpirit ... as fun as they are, I didn't see anything in those parody images that couldn't just as easily be done with less expensive imaging software like Paint Shop Pro. I'm halfway inclined to try making a couple of such images myself just to prove the point! Hmm ...

Yeah , right , like you get a chance to read all the comments ;) Was pointed this way by a friends blog in UK ...hope your life is going well ...and I agree with you about seeing Patrick S live onstage , my sister saw him once and said his performance was electric

the 15th anniversary of trek was a great opportunity to let trek fans who don't come here know who you are today...light years away from the character you played on next generation...if i were a cynical pseudo-intellectual i would say that you're just pretending to be a sensitive, thoughtful guy...but i think that you really are the kind of man your writings in this journal portray...which is something a cynical pseudo-intellectual would never have the heart to be.

Perhaps you should work on a screenplay of your own that you could star in? Of course, you would need a kick-me boy. I could be Corey Haim to your Corey Feldman...or is it the other way around? I could never figure out their dynamic. Who was the sidekick in that pair anyway?

i just gotta say this: /me luvs the red shirt. honesty. i think i'd look good in that. on another note, someone came onto efnet yesterday called jetsetwil. the bots thought it was you, but i pointed out to them that it was a german hostname ^_^ keep it coming...best wishes and stuff..

Several of those made me giggle aloud. I kinda like the shirt, too. Maybe.

ROTFLMAS---TFF!!! I have to say love the Gap Ad!!! That one was good.

Glad that Star Trek dot com gave such a cool Review

Hey Wil,

here's a site to put in your link bar:
http://www.michaelmoore.com
This guy has guts.

Wil, don't you think it is redundant to say "the TNG con". Thats like saying the The Next Generation con. Shouldn't it just be TNG con? I'm only playing...no hard feelings.

I got the Red Shirt joke, but I don't matter cuz I wasn't there, do I.... ? LOL I love the pics and stuff on the Fark.com site.... was considering doing one myself, but it's hard to out-do all those guys who had much better ideas... ;) Next time, great design for the shirt, but try purple.. ;)

Kella

The thread over at Fark is definetely something I will give credit to if i ever rupture an internal organ from laughing (which will likely happen; there's just too many humourous things going on out there).

"Sir, there's a large object moving to intercept."
"On screen."
-beep-
"S...Sir, it's the giant disembodied head of Wil Wheaton!"
"Geez, and Q says *he's* omnipotent? Back us away real easy, Ensign. We need not instigate the wrath
of Crusher."

I don't know about that last little spiel; makes me chuckle when I think about it in my cranium.

KJ, hope u liked the site!!

Hey Will I just want to say that I thought you were the best speaker at the convention. Im not too into Star trek but loved your stories and your shirt. It wasnt hard to see that you had a lot of fans of your website and thought id check it out.

when lull and behold i find out its a blog (of sorts). I think thats so cool cause my friends and I also have blogs. Mine being "A Weirdo Amoung us" (http://orsoithought.blogspot.com). I hope you keep up the writing and are very succesfull.

okay, i know you'll be mad at me for being off topic, buti was taking some sex test or someting at thespark.com because i was bored, and one of the questions was "what celebraty would you sleep with if you got the chance" and so of course i say wil wheaton, and you know what? there we re 82 other people who said they'd sleep with you. i just thought you might like to know that.

Oh good lawdy, you monkeys need a good fucking spanking. Once "Wheaton" enters your sexual fantasies, you know you're done for.

At least there is a growing "Wheaton fandom" that makes furries look so much more sane.

It's a shame Fark has rules for the kind of content their people can post, maybe SomethingAwful will have a photoshop contest involving you. Though the blowjob gif was my overall favourite.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seriously.

Hey guys.. check out Wil in his fancy dress uniform. We may not see it in Nemesis, but hopefully we'll see it somewhere.

Minor spoiler...
http://www.treknews.de/treknews/gallery-treknews/gallery/Star_Trek_Filme/Star_Trek_10_-_Nemesis/Bilder/120.jpg

Looking sharp, Wil!

whoops, they don't let me link the image directly. Updated link: http://www.treknews.de/cgi-bin/gallery-treknews/imageFolio.cgi?action=view&link=Star_Trek_Filme/Star_Trek_10_-_Nemesis/Bilder&image=120.jpg&img=&tt=

Read the review over at startrek.com......really wish I could have been there, Wil.

And I agree with Dal there, seeing the new uniforms are fitting like a glove there, Wil ;-)

Wil,

I don't know if you can answer this or not, but I read in the article that they had you in the uniform again. Which uniform? A starfleet uniform? If so, then how was it explained that Wesley somehow came back to starfleet? If I'm not mistaken, he ran off with the Traveler and unfortunately no story about them since.

Thanks,

Justin

LOL!
I love the pictures at FARK. Too bad I can't load all of them and some of them only load partway. Too many images on one page. Took me 20 min to load. But then I don't even connect at 20k bc my phonelines suck.
I think what Gates said about you at the con is so sweet! :-)
I'm really glad you had fun. :-)
luv,
-Su

You mean you didn't wear the Naked Dancing Llama shirt to the con?
Heehee. I don't blame you. ;)

Chris

Hey Wil! Get off the soapbox about Iraq for Christ's sake. And quit your whining about being cut, you had your shot. Take whatever residuals you are still getting and go back to college, get a REAL job like an electrician or EMT and GET ON WITH YOUR LIFE INSTEAD OF WASTING IT IN THIS SILLY WEBSITE COMPLAINING THAT YOU CAN'T GET WORK. BRENT SPINER WAS ONLY PLACATING YOU, THE PRODUCERS ONLY FILMED THAT LITTLE BIT WITH YOU IN IT JUST TO MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD BEFORE THEY FLUSHED IT THE NEXT MORNING! OH, AND DON'T BOTHER TRYING TO SEND ME AN INCURABLE VIRUS BECAUSE YOU WON'T FIND ME. I AM SURE ALL YOUR LITTLE LOSER-WORSHIPPERS WILL READ THIS AND SAY "THAT GUY'S A JERK, WIL, YOU'RE STILL MY HERO" (I MEAN ZERO). WHAT A JOKE YOU ARE, COMPLAINING ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT DOESN'T FIT PERFECTLY INTO YOUR LITTLE FANTASY WORLD. GET A JOB, GET A LIFE, AND BE SOMETHING.
