Hottie of the Week: Viggo Mortensen

We're going for raw, macho sex appeal this week. Which sounds weird to say. I probably shouldn't've said it, but it's too late now. Instead of thinking about how awkward this moment is, just look at the pretty pictures, okay?

I Like Wesley Crusher.


Wesley Crusher Tattoo, originally uploaded by angie k.

No, that isn't my arm. But it's nice to see there are other people who agree with me. You see, I'm part of that slim, exclusive group (okay, we just say that to make ourselves sound cool... or would if we talked to one another) of Trekkers who like Wesley Crusher.

Star Trek The Next Generation premiered when I was five years old in 1987. I'd been watching the original series since, well, birth, so Star Trek was nothing new to me. I was most pumped that the guy from Reading Rainbow was on it because DAMN, you don't get much cooler than LeVar Burton (who is still a BAMF).

Something that proved to be a nice surprise for me was Wil Wheaton. Yes, Wesley Crusher himself in all his terribly sweatered glory. See, to a five year old, Wesley wasn't some kid who got in the way and annoyed people. To a five year old, he was older, more sophisticated (he was what, twelve? That's AWESOME, obviously) and he got to hang out on the Enterprise. He was a kid. On STAR TREK. Plus, I gotta say, I thought he was pretty darn cute. Not as cute as Riker, but... hell, who is?

So while everyone else wished for Wesley's death, I, young and blissfully unaware that the internet even existed (we didn't get a computer until FAR later in my development) just thought Wesley Crusher was cool. And I still kinda think that. Despite his annoying moments and Will learning a lot of acting ropes right in front of us, I think it was GOOD to show a family dynamic on Star Trek. Mary Sue-ish at times or not, I stand by the fact that Wesley was a positive addition to the cast.

And in case you didn't know? Will not only got better and better at acting, he has also become a geek demi-god. If you aren't reading his blog, you're missing out. It's touching, funny, geeky... everything you wish this blog was. So go ahead and check it out. I won't blame you if it takes awhile to work your way back here. And hit him up on Twitter while you're at it because you won't be disappointed.

Etsy Sale!


Normally I keep my Etsy stuff on my crafting blog, but... this is a sale! Everyone loves those, right? So if you want 10% off everything in all three of my shops, check out this entry and get to shopping. I figured it would be good to clear some stuff out and get some orders on their way before Nooblet comes and my time becomes a bit more precious. The sale will be running through most of August, so you have time to save up if you can't scrape together the change for your very favorite item right this second.

We all know I have an Adam Lambert fetish anyway, but this song? Yeah, this is the best right here. Mmmmmmm.

Hottie of the Week: Liam Neeson

If anyone ever wonders why I saw The Phantom Menace more than once in the theater, one big part of it was Ewan McGregor. The other part is right here. Tall, sexy, accent... there's just really no downside here. Enjoy!

Tunes Tuesday: Tenacious D - Tribute



I blame Caleb Ashmore for getting this one stuck in my head. Not that I actually mind. This song is AWESOME!

Hottie of the Week: Eric Stoltz

I like gingers. They may not have souls, but the hot ones? Super hot. So this week I'm going with one of my faves, Eric Stoltz. For the record, as much as I really do like the gent they got to play Bill Weasley in the Harry Potter movies (he totally looks related to the rest of the clan), I will forever picture Bill as a young Eric Stoltz. That's just how it is. Also, apparently he was originally cast as Marty McFly. Mind=blown.

Hottie of the Week: Glenn Quinn

A sexy guy with pretty blue eyes? Oh, yes, please. Sadly, Glenn is no longer with us since he died of an overdose in December of 2002, effectively squashing all my dreams that Doyle would one day return to Angel. Before he checked out, Glenn produced an entertaining body of work including several movies and, most notably for a lot of people, stints on both Roseanne and Angel. And let's just not go into the way I cry like a baby every time I watch the episode "Hero," huh? Cuz I do. Every. Single. Time.
