I wanna see jane white, but I doubt I'll be able to catch it here. :( Stupid small cities that aren't home! (houston)

Oh yeah happy birthday Brent, he's from Houston too :-D

Oh...THAT god hairdresser!

BTW, Trek marathon is on TNN today.

Josh

Erm...make that "good" hairdresser, no offense Mrs. Wheaton ;)

You know Lorretta Lynn named one of her sons Jack Benny. Saw part of Coal Miner's Daughter last nite.

And Brent Spiner is my age, 34. He just looks younger. Hope he has a hella-rad BD, anyway. Hella. Hella. Hella.

Karla

Not to be a voice of dissent, Mr. Wheaton, SIR!

But you misspelled "llama" too.

Who I presume is a relative of the moose.

"Seeking blessings from outsiders is not right...", but when a happy, unsought for blessing from an outsider occurs, well, count your blessings :-)

Your site is a lot of fun, Wil, and your Soapbox is terrific. Great folks!

Hey, that game.... grand theft auto 3, It's great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course he could be referring to an entirely

different Lama. I'm taking a giant leap into

the land of assumption here, but maybe it is the

Dalai Lama :-P Ouch all that brain activity

hurts, I need to go lie down for a while. LOL

Was that Brent Spiner as the greasy French guy Pierre on "Dude, Where's My Car?" or was that some other dude that looks like him?

Of course it's the Dalai Lama.

What, you're thinking llamas can talk?

What are you smoking, and where can I get some?

Jun,

Yes, that was him. It was uncredited, but appears in his IMDB listing.

Well llamas can talk in the Emperor's New Groove. HA HA lighten up it was supposed to be funny

I always thought the Lama said "When you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness."

i think i'm a big old sap, but i do love it they way wil more often than not says "my wife" rather than "anne". i do hope when i'm married my husband stays as proud of me as wil is of anne.

aww.
s'all good.

ems, I don't think you're being a sap. I, too, think it's sweet as well.

Now, if I can only get my fiancé's parents to stop calling me "his good friend"... lol

courtney - heh i have the same problem!
yeah - i love how wil has turned out happy. makes me smile.

umm.... according to imdb, brent spiner is 53, not 34...

Jan,
Coulda been the Panchen Lama

My god, there's a whole herd 'o lamas out there.

-your resident smart ass (well, ok, one of many)

Jun, not Jan. Sorry.

And if you play SimCity 3000, there are lots of llamas.

I'm disappointed at the inability of some people here to distinguish sarcasm from a serious correction.

Oh well.

I think I can deal.

Maybe.

Must be descendants of the llamas in SimCity 2000...

Speaking of Lamas, the Dalai Lama is going to be in town in April to give a talk and to dedicate a new temple in Bloomington.

Except this time, unlike the other times he's visited, the University is charging for the tickets... and you know, the words "Ticketmaster" and "Dalai Lama" just don't belong in the same sentence!

HAPPY Birthday Brent from Victoria BC Canada!!

I was jus' havin' a bit o' fun, meself.

Apologies to those who are followers of the Dalai Lama; I didn't mean any disrespect.

First of all, happy birthday, Brent! Even though I don't know you and have no idea how old you are, you certainly are a fine thespian. I suspect 34 is about right... What a great entry today, Mr. Wil - glad to hear things are working well for you at present and yes I think that today's date does look pretty darn cool. V. good quote - just what I needed today. And Cindy, am fellow Can. - am in Toronto. Bet we have more snow than you? Will now go check info. about Jane White - we usually get new films here around the same time as N.Y., so hopefully I will get to it.

Oh, now that I've actually read about it, guess it is doing the festival circuit - if there are plans for it to be at the Toronto Film Festival in September, would love to know. Looks like...ahem..fun.

Best...Jack Benny Reference...EVER.

Good stuff, Wil. Keep it up.

happy birthday to Brent as well...good quote Wil..very nice

I've have the best PB and J EVER!

Happy Groundhog Day everyone!!

I love this day too, as its my sisters birthday (Happy birthday Sha xxx) so joy and rapturous merriment (not to mention copius amounts of ye olde falling down water) shall be reigning supreme.

*goes back to the drinking and says "Another pint of your foaming ale please, yeoman of the bar"*

Wait!!! Screech AND Marcia are in your new movie? Do I have to come to LA to see it!??!

Becky, in San Jose

Jan? JAN????!!!! *Blubber Blubber*

I BE MANLY! DAMMIT!

I thought Brent Spiner was Genius as the hillbilly husband on Night Court. A great comedic talent.

I have the Visual Quickstart HTML book from Peachpit. It's my bible.

tabby: that book was instrumental in the creation of WWDN.

Jane White...hmm...And on Friday is Ethan Phillips...don't ask me why I could pull that up from memory, cause for the life of me I can barely remember the quadratic equation, and that is so much more important than Mr. Phillip's birthday...

Square Root of b squared-4ac divided by 2a

I'll never forget it. It was very traumatic...

Jane White looks so cool, particularly based on who's in it (Colin Mochrie and Brad Sherwood are so awesome on "Who's Line Is It Anyway?").

3 posts on this entry and I failed to wish Brent Spiner a Happy Birthday! I can be so self-centered sometimes...

Since we're quoting the Dalai Lama I thought I'd share one of my favorite Dalai Lama quotes. "A wise man never feels out of place."

How come Vanna White never does Wheel with a hook?

I think she should do a fucking show with a hook.

And an eye patch.

Why not?

It's a fucking PC thing, isn't it?

Yeah.

PC.

Don't you think the show would enjoy a ratings boost during Hook Week?

There aren't enough prosthetics on American game shows and it pisses me off.

Motherfuck Brent Spiner!

Just trying to keep the comments balanced is all.

Where's your fucking hook and eye patch, Brent?!

No excuses, bitch.

azzhole!

Wil is a punk biatch!

Brent Spiner is 53 today, and he can eat crackers in my bed any day!

Hey spudnuts! Did you check out that ebay listing above? Coolness

Happy Imbolc everyone!
Or, for those who don't celebrate that...happy candlemas!
And, more directly to Mr. Brent Spiner, Happy Birfday.

oh, and Duchess, you're in T.O? I'm in Sudbury, a tad more north than you..i bet I got ALOT more snow than you.

But it's not something i'm proud of...the tears keep rolling every time I have to shovel the driveway.

Oh well, blessed be.

Drax'n

Ooo.

No, I hadn't seen that eBay link for the Spudnuts postcard. Actually, I have seen that doughnut graphic before...

I used it on a site I did called "Cathedral of the Hydrogenated Snack Cake" like... six years ago. (Won CSotD in 1997, I think. Sure, it's no Bloggie, but it's still better than a Golden Globe).

Still... I wouldn't get too-too excited about the postcard except for the little blurb that says "can be redeemed for spudnuts/never been used."

THAT'S the part that interests me.

Some-WHERE there is some-ONE who will redeem that postcard for hot, fresh spudnuts.

I must own that card.

I WILL own that card.

And then I will find the person who will exchange it for doughnuts... er... spudnuts.

My life finally has meaning.

I still wanna see Vanna with a hook.

Dont forget, today is ALSO a huge day for us Pennsylvanians..we live all year for this day of fame for our state....yes, thats right-Groundhog's Day..Punxsutawney Phil Rules (isnt he just the best groundhog ever?!) on this day every year...and for those of you who dont rule your life by the G'hog, he DID see his shadow today...6 more weeks of winter for those people who have winter in this country...

If you believe that quote then why do you always ask for mojo?

Heres a thought for you

There are old ships and new ships
Gold ships and silver ships
But the best ships is friendship.

Wil, I hear you. Without that book I don't think I'd have been able to do half the stuff I do with my sites.

Owch! I think my brain is broken...

A few of you guys keep saying Brent is 34 today, well if I remember correctly, he was *37* when he started on Star Trek TNG, so you guys are way off, lolol. He is 53 today. Entertainment Tonight said he was 47, that isn't right either, lol. They messed his age up last year too.
Happy Birthday Brent!

~Kristie

Sorry, yeah, I guess Brent could be a lot older than that. It's just he told me we were the same age when we had that one night.... wait... are we rolling?

Karla

And Spudnuts, he does have a hook and eye patch. It's just not everybody gets to see them.

Karla

screw the hook. i want vanna to turn those letters around with her bare stump.

her sexy little diamond-encrusted stump. dammit.

mojo pin said: "If you believe that quote then why do you always ask for mojo?"

That's an interesting question, mojo. Now, this is just my opinion, but I believe what the DL was referring to in that quote was seeking approval from other people...sort of like being a praise junkie. I don't suppose there's anything wrong with asking for a little extra luck or good thoughts once in awhile. It's a sign that we're not perfect and are not too proud to ask for support.

*Thinks a few nasty things about Sarah then shakes her head a bit and goes to post something sensible*

Wow. The lama is 'The Best' isn't he? So full of wisdom. :-)
And yes, when you are one your deathbed, you will attain total consciousness. :-) NIRVANA!
Anyways, awsome site Wil. I dig the quotes from the Lama, mainly because they make sense (To me anyways).
Glad you decided to put the Soapbox back up. :-)
Thanks..
*Hugs*

Just remember that DHTML is a nightmare for multiple browsers.

But hey, I've just built hundreds of sites...don't take my word for it.

as long as you only check your work in MSIE you will be conforming properly, citizen

Happy Birthday, Brent Spiner! Data is my second-favourite character on TNG (after a Wesley/Geordi tie). I wish I could see Jane White; I went to the website and it looks awesome.. but theatres in my little town only play the Harry Potter and Titanic-esque films. Argh.

Have fun at lunch with your wife, Wil!

hot soup girl freestyled:

>> her sexy little diamond-encrusted stump.

I wanna see Vanna scrape her hook menacingly across the letter tiles and hiss...

"So it's a dinette set ye be a-hunting, eh, matey? Arggh."

"Jane White" has Colin Mochrie _and_ Brad Sherwood in it? Wow! Definitely a must-see.

What if these outsiders offer me a delicious ham n' cheese sandwich?

Happy Birthday to Brent. I hope they dont kill him in the next Star Trek. Just give him a facelift to look as young and dashing as Wil. The whole digital Data thing does not do it for me. BTW, Mr. Wheaton you are much better looking as a man than as a boy...lucky wife you have.
Peace
Rob

Gotta comment on the quote about blessings.

This year has been tough for me, basically, I am now a single mom of three after daddy decided he doesnt like the responsibility anymore. Searching for blessings this last year was hard, until my 7 year old decided to wise me up. As sappy as it is, she brought home a story called "our heros" from school. I started tearing up as she chose me. I really started to cry when i saw the reasons. Basically in a nut shell she wrote, that no matter how little time mommy has, its always special. And no matter how much we need, mommy always finds it. Mommy is beautiful, and I love her. It ended with her saying she wants to be like me when she grows up.

All I gotta say to that is... TALK ABOUT BLESSINGS !

Amy

That's awesome, Amy. Made me tear up :)

Bah. Patriots.

This just proves that the Superbowl is rigged.

You're a lucky gal, Amy (:

Amy you are doing something right! Being a single parent it one of the hardest and most rewarding jobs you can find.

has everyone seen the Willy feature in People (feb 11 issue)?

Moms are way kool.
My own mum is a single mom after ousting the dead weight from our family.

Actually all parents (step, adopted, whatever) who aren't self serving wastes are kool in my book.

I love what my mom told me to explain my adoption and to tell her bio child to sod off after pulling the superiority crap.

"I picked her out and said that's my baby- with you... well honey I got stuck with you."

^_^

Hmmm...

Just found a "free" CSS resource at http://html.about.com/cs/css/

Being a parent of a 20 month old myself, I could not imagine doing it alone, much less alone with three. All the best to you, Amy!

I dunno. It just wouldn't be a day without me posting something.
And in other news.

So, do you think Jane will ever make it to Phoenix? I have read about it and now I want to see it too. Can I please have my cake and eat it too?

And speaking of Brent Spiner, I just went to see Royal Tenenbaums. He had a minor part in the movie. I thought the movie was rather funny. Didn't care for the clothes. But the dark humor was good.

Spiner had a part in Tenenbaums?

Shit, wasn't paying attention apparently...

If Television's Wil Wheaton ever gets a part in a Wes Anderson film (or Whit Stilman or Jarmusch) THEN I will be impressed.

Cooler days this year;

04/03/02 (at 1am for that) 01:00

I'm going to Level Three Heaven.

It's not Level One.

Or Level Two.

But it's not bad.

If you change the letters around in Brent Spiner's name, it can be changed into...

Bernt Sniper.

Do you really want to sit next to THAT guy on a plane?

Or...

On a wide open quad whose entire expanse can be taken in from the clock tower?

Prolly not.

Prolly not.

Heh.

Heh heh.

Hoo.

Uh.

Heh.

*ahem*

...

...

...

I'll shut the fuck up now.

But I'm still going to Level Three Heaven, so...

EAT THAT, EMPEROR HIROHITO!

what's in level three heaven?

clouds, and lots of crappy 'heaven' art. air-brushed puppies.
angels with moogs playing devo songs.
lots and lots and lots of tinned pineapple.
vanna wearing a t-shirt that says 'world's #1 pirate.'

with the sleeves sewn up.

for modesty. because stumps are considered obscene in heaven.

cool times to post:

20:02 on 20/02 2002?

only a couple of weeks away, as well

Hey, Wil!

New reader here. I don't have any silly newbie questions for ya, just waving and settling in to read. Love this site--never once imagined that you'd maintain a website, and a blog at that, until I tripped across a link to you the other day (search engine). I'm very pleased to have found this site. What I've read thus far has made me giggle, and in many places burst out laughing (the faq, especially). Great site. You've got a new groupie, heh.

Have a great day!

Spudnuts-you never cease to have me cracking up! Where the hell does this stuff come from?

On second thought, maybe it's best that I don't know...

WIL DO YOU LIKE GOATS PLZ THX

>> Where the hell does this stuff come from?

Apart from the occasional overindulgence in beer, my youth was remarkably drug-free and rather mundane.

My mother smoked when I was in the womb as was recommended by most obstetricians in 1966.

Maybe she partook of a little devil-weed as well, but I don't think she ever dropped acid.

Hi, mom!

My dad lived in Garden Grove and we did take more than a few trips to my favorite ride... Adventure Thru Inner Space.

http://www.sdwebsite.com/atis/sounds.htm

Now...

This ride has long since been paved over and replaced by Star Tours.

Why?

Because the Disney Corporation knows full well there are thousands of fucked up mutants like myself who are victims of the shrinking process employed daily at Adventure Thru Inner Space and it is a legacy they just don't want to deal with.

What happens when you shrink a six year-old to the size of an atom?

Over.

And over.

And over again?

Son, that's going to curdle the chickpeas in any young American's soup bucket.

Throw cherry sour balls and popcorn into the mix and you have a recipe for disaster.

I was supposed to take medication, but I never did.

It's hard to focus.

Michael Eisner -- cocksucker that he is -- owes me a living.

movie sounds awesome

Yes.

The snowflake has melted!

But there is no cause for alarm.

What does the Spud man take to reach this plane of consciousness? Is it legal in Canada?

Spudnuts-I can hardly breathe 'cause I'm laughing so hard on that last bit. And to work in a vintage Disneyland ride-I will no longer be able to think of that one again without Spudnuts coming to mind.

I have only myself to blame for asking in the first place...

Spudnuts,

Sorry I misled you. Brent wasn't in Tenenbaums, he had a role in I AM SAM. My mistake. See you were paying attention. I apologize. Please don't shrink me into an atom.

Cera

Actually, the coolest thing was my friend getting married on 01-01-01 at Space Center Houston. That was pretty cool.

Pam

Jane White has Colin Mochrie, Brad Sherwood, AND Wil? Ohmahgod, must see...

So Wil: when are we going to see you on Whose Line is it Anyway?
