Welcome to Nerdology, a study of how to interact with and preserve (the sanity of) and endangered (by the more physicaly fit) species, the nerd (scientific name: Futurus Bossus) (Disclaimer: this blog is not actually a guide to interaction or preservation of the nerd species but in fact an account of the trials and tribulations of one Futurus Bossus).
To begin this blog, I've decided to commit an act of piracy (Arrr!), blog-piracy in fact, stealing something from my mom's blog, but with a Nerdology touch:
Four Things:
Four jobs you've had in your life: counting inventory for a scrapbook selling mom, weekly existence... I mean chores (allowance), cleaning up other people's messes, and taking other people's blame.
Four movies you could watch over and over: All three Lord of the Rings and Monty Python's Quest for the Holy Grail. What, you're only counting the first three as one? Well in that case add Jurassic Park and Finding Nemo to the list (Finding Nemo not by my choice, but because I'm forced to see it on every school function, even though Nemo is always found at 42 Wallaby Way, Syndney).
Four places you've lived: San Antonio, Pflugerville, Pflugerville (rental house), and Denial.
Four TV shows you love to watch: "Quantum Leap," "Home Improvement," "The Simpsons," "Star Trek: The Next Generation"
Four places you've been on vacation: Boston, Denver, That Place in Canada That I Can't Remember the Name of, and to several scattered parts of Texas.
Four websites you visit daily: Yahoo! (It's the Homepage), worldofwarcraft.com (because 9 out of 10 doctors recommend getting a daily dose of idiots on forums*), penny-arcade.com (truly, a paragon of webcomicry), and wizards.com ([sarcasm] because new cards and RPG products are released so fast, you have to keep up[/sarcasm]).
Four of your favorite foods: pizza, cheeseburgers, chocolate covered orange peels, and Twinkies.
Four places you'd rather be: Lothlorien, Middle-Earth (Lord of the Rings); Quel'Thalas, Azeroth (Warcraft); Stormhome, Aundair (Eberron, Dungeons and Dragons); Hawaii, USA (Outside your window and anywhere from 0 to many more miles away).
Four magazines you read: "Nintendo Power," "Time," "Shonen Jump," and "Science News"
Four cars you've owned: You're kidding, right? At 16 I'm lucky to be let to use one. But counting the "Teenage Driver Car" parked outside, there's also a collection of Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars that I haven't used in years.
Thus I conclude the study of Four Things which I enjoy, and perhaps tommorrow there can be actual day-to-day content here.
*and it's a known fact that 97.4% of facts are made up on the spot just to prove a point.
