April Fool's joke...

Here is his April Fool's joke:

Good morning, everyone, and happy April!... On to the good news! Oh, this is such amazingly good news, and it's been so hard to keep this to myself, but there have been contract talks, and all sorts of negotiations, and all that...but I can finally make the big big announcement:

The official announcement will be made on Thursday, but I've been given permission by Paramount's hired goons to make the announcement today.

In four weeks, I will be joining the cast of Enterprise in a recurring role!

The details are still being worked out, but basically what they plan to do is have Wesley use his Time Traveler abilities to move through space and time to the NX-01. He'll be written more like the dark, troubled Wesley of "The First Duty" and "Final Mission", and less like the gee-whiz Wesley of days gone by.

Here's a little history: Nemesis is testing very well, and Paramount is extremely excited that this lame little website has generated such a huge following. I guess some people started a letter-writing campaign, without my knowledge, and Paramount listened. I spent most of last week on conference calls with Rick and Brannon, as well as some of the brass at Paramount, working out the details, making sure that Wesley will not be saving the NX-01 all the time. * grin *

I'll be in 8 of 22 episodes for the two seasons, with an option to renegotiate at the end of the second season. I'm only recurring to allow me the freedom to participate in other shows, as well as continue working for G4.

I'm so freakin' excited, I don't even know what else to say. I can't believe that I'm going to be working on Star Trek again, and I can't believe that I'm going to be working on Stages 8 and 9 again.

I have to go to a fitting right now. I'll write more when I have more details. I hope everyone has a great day!!

It fooled many people, including his mum and dad! Unfortunately, it caused so many hits to his site that the server went down, along with everyone else hosted by logjamming. I bet they were all pleased!
 
He does have some interesting stuff on there. I don't agree with most of his opinions, though. I think about the only thing that I agreed with was his bit about drunk driving.

He just announced that he's been cut from Nemesis. It is worth going there now and again!

Now the film might be worth watching as well!;)
 
I find there are actors and characters that are definite avoids- Wesley Crusher, is one. Jack Nicholson is another, but for different reasons.

I will watch Nemesis, because I enjoy my Startrek, wobbly sets, plots and acting included. But the difference between watching it and being glad I made the effort is a chasam that a lot of the Trek movies don't cross.
 
WilWheaton.net is a blog (translate: online journal). Blogging is a tradition started by techno-geeks who wrote their thoughts in their homepages. Wil is now a computer geek and advocates Linux via his site & misc. interviews. He also apparently had an interview the other day for John Doe, or something like that, so you may see him on TV sometime soon.

He also has a forum, which has a computer/techie section where you can ask other users about techie stuff. It also has a books & Trek section, though not as comprehensive as Ascifi's because it's pretty small. I mostly checked it out for the computer stuff.
