on the fourth day of geekmas, uncle willie gave to me . . .

  • Books

. . . a chance to win an autographed Happiest Days of Our Lives at Geekdad:

This 4th Day of Geekmas is extra special, as it boasts a prize from a member of the GeekDad extended family. Oh yes, kids, it’s a present from your Uncle Willie!

Actor, writer, father, uber-nerd, and GeekDad reader Wil Wheaton is, for lack of a better term, our Champion. From Gordie LaChance to Wesley Crusher to his keynote at PAX 2007 to his epic appearance on MC Frontalot’s new album Final Boss, Wil has become a veritable cultural touchstone for nerds of all stripes. Wil is one of us, and he was kind enough to toss a signed copy of his latest book The Happiest Days of Our Lives into the pot for 12DOG.

Should you wish to procure this literary jewel, simply leave a response to this post by midnight tonight, and a lucky winner will be chosen at random. (Don’t forget to include your email address in the relevant field!)

It’s a geekmas miracle, kids.

Note: You have to go to Geekdad and leave a comment there to be entered. You’re welcome to comment here, but it won’t be a contest entry unless it’s at Geekdad.

    You have inspired me to write a song about shellfish. Thank you Mr Wheaton. Wheaton FTW.

    I wasn’t clear in my post, @rod, and I’ve updated it. You have to leave your comment at the Geekdad blog to be entered. I edited your comment to take out your e-mail address before the spambots that crawl all over the internets could steal it.

    You should do some sort of geek christmas short film. I have this image of you shouting “It’s a geekmas miracle!”

    Normally I’m more lucky at finding parking spaces than at winning books… but you never know!

    You know, Wil, this is nice and all… but I still await, nay… DEMAND, pie. 🙂

    Regardless if I win or not, it should be a good read on the Muni.
