Three things for a Sunday afternoon:
1. It was 85 degrees here yesterday and Friday. Can you believe that? I guess Demeter worked something out with Hades, and got temporary custody of Persephone for the weekend.
2. The ACME show last night was amazing. I have been in a lot of ensemble casts in my life, and this cast is one of the best. It is truly a privilege to share the stage with them, and I can’t wait to do this show every week. I remember feeling this way back in 2001 when I was doing my first ACME show “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Sunday Show.” The camaraderie backstage creates a trust and relaxation onstage, which takes the show up to eleven. There’s already talk of extending our show past the usual ten weeks, because it’s getting such a great response from the audience.
3. I read this in the comments recently, but I’m putting it here for the RSS folks who probably missed Troy Rutter’s The Top 10 Ways You Know You’ve Been Reading Wil Wheaton’s Blog Too Much . . .
10. You pronounce Wil’s site as “dubya dubya dee enn” in general conversation.
9. You take a trip to California to go geocaching hoping to see Wil’s name in the log.
8. You try to send an update to the IMDB to change Ernest’s last name to Borg9.
7. You Photoshop Wil’s name onto a box of Wheat Thins.
6. You buy the “Wil has a posse” thong for your girlfriend.
5. You write a letter to the producers of Alias pleading with them to write Wil into a dream sequence for Sidney.
4. You wish you could go back in time to help Wil kick his own ass.
3. You buy a case of voodoo dolls and put the last name “Kimmel” on all of them.
2. You apologize out loud to Wil when Foster dies in Ghost Recon 2.
1. You watch Boston Legal and at the end of the credit you scream “That’s William FUCKING Shatner!”
Thanks, Troy! The last time I was in a top ten list, it featured clever ways to kill my Star Trek character. Six of them involved Klingons and soap-on-a-rope, but your list more than balances that out.
