April 3, 2016: I want one! I can’t have one! Rook-Wheaton spotted!

Holy smokes!  I was checking out my Facebook feed this morning when I came across a link to this over at thinkgeek.com:

It includes the ambient sounds from five different Enterprises plus sounds from engineering, two warp cores, and a Red Alert sound for the alarm function.  AND it projects a moving star field on your ceiling.

AND it was just an April Fool’s gag.

I had showed it to Akemi and even SHE was excited about the prospect of getting one.

I am genuinely bummed.

Speaking of Star Trek, look who I happened across in the production offices the other day.  Why, it’s none other than Dwarf Star Technology CEO, author, actor, and blogger Alexander Rook/Wil Wheaton.  In a tie no less.  AND sporting some killer kicks –

So WHAT was Rookie-Wheaton doing in our neck of the woods?  And what does his presence hold in store for TWO?  And what WAS the deal with that decrepit old man who was talking to Rook-Wheaton at the end of episode 12?

Well, guess we’ll never know.

Or will we…?

Yeah, we’ll know.
