Wil Wheatons: Just A Geek

[Dorian Monroe]

Yes, he was Wesley Crusher, of alt.westley.crusher.die.die.die.die.die fame, and also the skinny nerd kid in "Stand by Me".  He is a true geek.  Still plays games with 2d20's and rpg's at cons.  He is a true geek, and doesn't need "rebranded" to be seen as a geek.  He's a really intelligent and witty person, and that's why I read his blog (http://wilwheaton.typepad.com/) and follow him on Twitter (#wilw)!  Honestly makes me laugh!

Anyone read this?  Another Burton Barr find... looks somewhat lame by
the pic on the back, which is Wil sitting at his Geek Desk, with lots
of Geek Books, drinking Geek Beer (stout lager), and laughing at some
unidentified Geek Joke.  A bit too excessive for me to take seriously,
looks like his agent is trying to rebrand him to the nerd crowd (he
used to be on Star Trek).  Should be interesting learning what the
marketing world thinks of Linux users.

rule of thumb: Once and Actor, Always an Actor.
