Profile Information
- What kind of geek are you?
- A geek of many ways.
- Why do you consider yourself a geek?
- I sit at a computer almost all day, and my favorite genre of 'entertainment' is science fiction. My favorite TV channels include the science, NGC, and history channels, and I love counterfactuals, aka what-ifs. I mod as many of my games as I can. At least a few of my computers have names, and I've occasionally had to remind myself that I don't have Jedi powers. Plus, I was called a geek by a kid for trying to overclock a Mac G3.
- How did you find out about our Geek community?
- From an iPod app

Brains, and whatever else I must work with.
- What do you want to be when you grow up?
- Honestly, beats me. I have some ideas, but that's assuming I stop being a child at heart.
- What makes you laugh?
- What ever it is that makes me laugh.
- What is the thing in life you treasure most?
- Other than my computer?
- What's the geekiest thing you've ever done?
- The list is probably too long to compile.
- What do you do to entertain yourself?
- I'm a geek, so I knit for entertainment. :-D
- Favorite music, movies, books, shows, artists, games, people, events, hobbies, etc.?
- Music:I'm fairly open with my music, but my usual mix consists of Symphonic/Classical, Jazz, Rock, and Electronic
Artists: Craig Mullins, Rudolph Herzcog
Games: JKJA, Doom 3, Quake 4, Marathon, Sim City, Myst, Halo, Homeworld 2
Books: Dune series, Hagakure, Foundation series, whatever Star Wars books I have. I'm building on my library, but don't get to it often.
People: Anyone with an open mind, an appetite for ideas, and a love of personal freedom and the responsibility that goes with it. Oh, and geek girls, who among us can say no to a geek girl?
Movies:Star Trek, Star Wars, Tron, Fifth Element, Hackers, the Bourne Trilogy, and the Die Hard movies, Yojimbo, Bladerunner, Sneakers, and Ferris Beuler's Day Off, just to name a few. The whole list would be a bit too long.

My fellow geeks and geekettes, welcome to my first post.
I just watched, for the first time in quite a while, the movie "Sphere," and it got me thinking. I consider myself a fan of science fiction, especially the substantive material, the "good stuff," if you will. This movie actually has a trace of that at the very least. A sphere… Continue

Paul Canchola said… - A fellow martial artist/Star Wars/Tech Geek. Awesome. I'm a 3rd Dan in American Kenpo that loves to cross train in Aikido, Bujinkan Ninjutsu, Russian Systema, and Wing Chun Kung Fu. I blend these other arts into the Kenpo to expand, but keep the full Kenpo system as a foundation to build upon. I used to teach to the military when I was in, but now I just do some private lessons and government contracts. I see your pic and was curious what systems you work in. Martial Arts to me was started for the Geekiest reason ever. As a kid, I thought it was the closes to becoming an actual Jedi that I could. LOL..... Yeah, I know.
Actually, speaking of Star Wars, I threw a few posts on the "Group" page for Star Wars fans and would love your input.
Hope your weekend has been a great one.
