MPLS?! Aw man... I don't live there anymore. Any plans for bringing the show down to the nation's capital?
"In a lot of ways, for me, W00tstock felt like finally finding a home base."
When Paul and Storm and Adam Savage and I had our first conversations about what would become w00tstock, we knew that we wanted to put on an entertaining show for our fellow nerds that would be successful enough to warrant more than the three shows we originally planned. Sunday and Monday, we're...
Does it really take 14 years to get your geek to rub off on your wife...?
Love my wife dearly, but I think she would be a whole lot more fun sometimes if she even shared one of my "geek" hobbies. I share in most of her "normal" ones.
We need a married geek call to arms. For every week we sit through an episode of Project Runway, American Idol, or Biggest Loser, they need to sit through an episode of Star Trek, Firefly, or AOTS.
For every shopping trip we take to JC Pennys or Macys, they need to come to GameStop or Games Workshop.
For every lame dinner party with her friends we go to, they need to come to play DnD or Warhammer.
Maybe that's just a pipe dream.
Oh well... 3 years down... 11 to go.
Let your geek flag fly!
It turns out I had a fairly geeky weekend
In an effort to force myself out of this non-creative, unmotivated funk I've been in post-Eureka, I now commence a braindump from this weekend: I pressed the plunger down on my coffee press and tried to clear the sleep from my eyes while Anne put the orange juice back into the fridge. The mornin...
So weird that you blogged about the Kill Wesley Crowd today. I was just hearing (with some surprise) about their existance from a coworker today. I was 12 when I started watching TNG (which was in syndication already, to age me a little), Wesley was about the only person on that ship I could even identify with. I think the "we hate Wesley" people must have been old jerks. The episode where Wes traps his mother in a warp bubble is still one of my all time favs. I never watched Enterprise, but news of a Wesley addition probably would have grabbed my attention enough to catch a few episodes.
from the vault: april's fool
Every year, I dream up some epic April Fool's thing, realize how much work it would take to do it well, and end up just waiting to see whatever Think Geek does. This year, I ended up doing something fairly (hey, my fingers just automatically typed fail while my brain was thinking fair. That's fu...
Wish I could have been there. Been following PA since 2003, and have always wanted to check it out. Maybe next year I'll get tix soon enough. Looking forward to catching a replay of the speech.
PS Ralph Wiggum quoting FTW.
games are important. games matter. #PAX is where we come together to celebrate that.
The adrenaline and excitement from an incredible day at PAX East is finally wearing off, and I'm on my way to sleepy time, where I am a viking. Before I go to bed, though, I wanted to share a little bit from my keynote today. This is excerpted from my speech: Gaming is the foundation of the be...
