50,000 Monkeys at 50,000 Typewriters Can't Be Wrong

Call for help

  • computers

On Boxing Day, Tech TV ran a Call for Help marathon. Call For Help is hosted by my friend Chris. His wife, Gretchen, asked me if I would call in to the show and be part of the madness.
So I did.

    Just a quick note to say that I enjoyed hearing your voice, especially after not getting the chance to in “Nemesis”. I’m also thoroughly enjoying keeping up with your website. Thanks so much for letting us drop by and visit with you, Wil!

    The Tech TV clip was interesting, even though I have never seen or heard of Tech TV. Anyhow, why are some of you surprised that Wil’s ‘voice was so deep?’ He’s 30 years old. What were you expecting?

    I’m still laughing at the TNN promo. George Takei waxing eloquently about the “optimistic future of the human race”, Michael Dorn being all serious about a “wagon train to the stars” and Uncle Willie being attacked by the “five-assed monkey people”. I nearly fell out of the lazy-boy laughing. Guess who wrote their on lines for this one??? WTG Wil – ya got me!

    Wil, like JeffNTx, I thought your comments on the TNN promo were hilarious. I was actually surprised they put that comment on. Good for TNN! The contrast between your words and George Takei’s and Michael Dorn’s made it even funnier. They even put up drawings to illustrate the money people (villians of the movies). And, whenever Wil can get in a comment about monkeys…

    RJC: We’re surprised about the deep voice because the other times we heard his voice recently (Radio Free Burrito, infomercial, TNN promos etc) it wasn’t so freaking deep. 🙂

having exhausted my ability to solve a simple problem, i turn to the internet for assistance. help me, mysterious internet; you’re my only hope.

this post is an ask for technical support. Just a basic, straightforward, "Hey, Internet, can someone help me out here?" And before you ask, yes, I have turned it off and back on again.

nothing but bluesky is such a predictable title for this post

I am still on a break from public life, but I understand some number of people were concerned that someone was building a foundation to impersonate me, and I wanted to verify that those accounts are, indeed, mine. There is no need to report them. But thank you for looking out for me.
