Wil Wheaton
Well, I wasn't going to update until break, due to the excessive amount of work I have to take care of, but I got distracted and started reading Wil Wheaton's Blog at http://wilwheaton.net.
Who's Wil Wheaton you ask? Well, obviously someone has watched too little Star Trek: The Next Generation. As a child and through his teens he played Ensign Wesley Crusher. Why should you read his blog? Wil says it best:
"I can promise you that I'm not what you expected.
By reading this website, you will get to know the real me, not the space-suited, enterprising young ensign, or the sweet, vulnerable little dead body seeker.
I'm thirty years old. Although I don't always take myself seriously (if I did, I would be in an urn next to River Phoenix by now . . . those people who are the real life inspiration for The Comic Book Guy have been giving me shit for decades), I am politically active and aware. I passionately believe in progressive causes, freedom from religion and government intrusion, and the right to privacy -- on line and in your home.
If you've come here looking for a washed-up, former child actor, I guess you could find that. But if you're willing to look beyond the surface, and challenge your preconceptions, you will get to know me for who I am now: a very happy husband, step-father, and writer."
Anyway, it's a very well written and funny blog. Check it out while I get back to building myself a funeral pyre out of scrap paper in my quest to get through this week.
