One of my favorite things on JoCoCruiseCrazy was our Informal Moustache Formal, organized by the (now dead to me) Paul F. Not Coming On the Cruise Because I Got a "Job" that "Pays Me" and "Furthers My Career" Tompkins.
During the Informal Formal, Kevin Murphy loaned me this most exquisite fez, which I wore proudly until it was time for the Informal Moustache Formal to come to its inevitable and all-too-soon conclusion.
"Thank you," I would say when a gentleman or lady would compliment me on the aforementioned fez, "it is on loan from the Murphy collection."

Damn, Wil, you look like you just walked in off the cover of Modern Drunkard magazine!
That is SO workin. Didn’t even realize the mustache was partially fake. Trim the eyebrows tho. Skeery. :]
I'm not only the Editor, I'm also a Subscriber.
I love the fake mustache over the real mustache. Really makes it.
This picture reminds me of the The Egyptologist from The Mummy…http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0002694/
Great picture
Is that a monocle in your pocket, or did you forget to buy one at the ship’s Monocle Store?
With out regard, a cool fez it is, indeed!
So are you trying out for the part of the Shopkeeper in a live action version of Mr Ben – and how’s your appearing “as if by magic” coming on…
(Sorry for this making no sense to anyone not in the UK)
Sweet!
Frickin’ Tompkins. He will pay.
Found an amazing piece of geekery on Etsy (crafter’s website) that is right in your wheelhouse – http://tinyurl.com/47ke35b Enjoy!
With a dashing tash may I suggest a song to prove your virility should it be challenged:
It’s better than a sharp stick in the eye.
OK, am I the only one who noticed this picture and this picture from Atom’s photostream and think there should be another “caption the photo” contest?
Looking through the pictures from Atom Moore, you and your family all look like you had an awesome time. Lots of smiling faces! A lot of close ups, which is hard for anyone to look good in, but my your wife is beautiful. The Cruise looks like it was really fun. Can’t wait to read what you’ll write about it. 🙂

Appears your having a Casablanca moment.
Nothing could be finer, than Wil Wheaton as a Shriner.
Well, maybe a bacon sandwich.
Was Anne dressed as River or Amy, by any chance?
You look like the guy who helps Indy in the Last Crusade. LOL.
A very becoming look for you, Mr. Wheaton. However, I think you should let your beard grow out a little more. After many years of being clean shaven…I have recently re-entered the Secret Society of Beards. It is never discussed and possibly only a rumor, much like the Secret Society of The Motorcycle Wave. But I can confirm it does exist…the strange nods, the looks of acceptance (and the ones of fear…*cackle*).
Again, a great look for you…but you’re not eligible for membership just yet.
Wil, I wish I knew you in person. You seem like a fun guy. Quick question: Do you have a release date for Memories of the Future vol 2? I’m buying that soon, as well as a few of your other books. Loved the series and loved your memories of them. Best, Julie
Wow, That was quick!
Moustache-on-moustache concept has blown my mind. @_@
Too cool Wil!
I love you so hard.
Fez? Are Fez’s cool? I guess so. But I think they are not comfortable as they would seem. They look pretty awkward when worn and I think they are hot in the head. But I still think wearing one of those is totally cool and geeky and nerdy especially with those irritating mustache. I just love the mustache. Who wouldn’t?
