Back in 2004 Wil Wheaton and I sat on a “being a geek” panel in which we talked about how there are sports geeks, comic geeks, Star Trek geeks… all kinds of geeks.
One of the attendees asked why it was that the “jocks” (AKA “sports geeks”) in high school picked on the drama geeks and the D&D geeks and the rest of the “lesser” geeks. (more…)
Some thoughts on the upcoming “super” bowl:
1) Until Thursday, I had no idea who was playing.
2) Unless things have changed significantly, I’m willing to bet that they’ll be playing “football,” and that one hour of game clock will be cut with three hours of commentary and commercials.
3) I’m sure y’all will tell me which commercials won. I’m rooting for the one with the monkeys (I’ll be disappointed if the monkeys don’t make it to the Superbowl.)
