Why do you consider yourself a geek?

I spend a great deal of my time reading Engadget, blogging about technology, and podcasting. My Saturdays are spent playing CyberPunk with other South Austin Gaming Association members. I'm a big time gamer as well.

How did you find out about our Geek community?

I've been a fan of Chris Pirillo for a very long time and heard it from his podcast.

What's the geekiest thing you've ever done?

Attended movie premiers to Star Wars, Harry Potter, and spent hours in line waiting for a chance to get an early look at new games.

What do you do to entertain yourself?

Gaming

Favorite music, movies, books, shows, artists, games, people, events, hobbies, etc.?

I really love rock-alternative as a music genre though blues will always have a place in my iPod. DragonLance and Lord of the Rings dominate my book collection while writers like William Gibson will have always been great writers.

My artistic tastes vary however I support and enjoy the art of Jeffrey Lipsky aka Filthy Fluno. His work adorns my office walls.

My hobbies include gaming, writing, reading, and chain mail making. Yes, that last one is a bit unusual but it is fun.

That New Puppy Smell

A new puppy smells nothing like a new car, but given enough trips they start to smell the same. The photo you see was taken today as I made my weekly trip to the local Petco for hamster supplies. The Elgin Humane Society had their sweetest d… Continue

Inkheart Game for the DS Reviewed

Though the Inkheart the game is only loosely based on the movie, it appears the game is getting the same sort of grief from gaming reviewers as the movie is receiving from critics. It is refreshing to see an old Sierra Online style game on the newer Nintendo DS platform, though it doesn't appear to… Continue

Geek Sauce

My father once told me, "Son, if you want to know the easy way to win a woman's heart, learn how to cook one thing very well and cook it on an important date." This advice was quite true, and has proven itself time and time again. His special recipe is a lasagna that weighs in at between ten and fifteen pounds depending on how big the pan is. I learned how he makes it, but decided that this would not be my special recipe. I thought long and hard about how exactly I would win a woman's heart when… Continue

Not sure if you would agree with this, but over the years I have learned not to trust anyone who dislikes animals. I don't mean someone who is afraid of them for some reason. I mean a person who hates/dislikes animals.
