Blackberry, Six Flags, and Katdish doesn't know a thing about teen angst
Posted by Nick the Geek in All, Geek, Youth Pastor on 05. Jun, 2009 | 0 Comments
Things have been crazy busy. I've been dealing with a nasty cough the past couple weeks and I've finally gone to the dr about it. Last Saturday I took a small group to 6 flags. It was a great trip but I was already exausted tired so it wasn't as fun as it could have [...]
Oh, Boy It's Chuck.

OK so I’m watching Chuck and it is already off to a great start. Scott Bakula is one of the guest stars (I won’t give anything away by saying that) and very early on he gets the chance to say, “oh boy.” That is awesome but only if you watched Quantum Leap constantly like I [...]
Geek project alert

I just found my next geek project (after the t-shirt cannon). I have some of the components already and I’m really interested in getting the other pieces for this. If all goes well I’ll have a 32 gig solid state hd to run linux off of. It will be nice and portable as well as [...]
T-shirt canon

Later this month I get to have a “anything goes” service. I’m really excited and have been planning. I want to go over the top. If it gets me fired I want this to be something the community talks about for years. Actually my pastor is really cool about things but I’m going to try [...]
Geek facts

I like the show Chuck. It is funny and geeky. If that isn’t your cup of tea then why are you reading this because that is what I aspire to be. The show, like another of my favorite shows Psych makes regular 80s references, but unlike Psych they are often pretty subtle. Last night Chuck, [...]
I don't feel like being serious
Posted by Nick the Geek in All, Geek on 31. Mar, 2009 | 0 Comments
If you haven’t figured it out this month has been serious on Tuesdays. I’ve been talking about sacrifice and Lent and stuff like that. I’m really not feeling like being serious. Actually I feel very much like being serious which is why I can’t be. It is like having a big red flashing button that [...]
Another Geek Alert
Posted by Nick the Geek in All, Geek on 24. Mar, 2009 | 0 Comments
A month ago I posted a geek alert about multitouch surfaces. In one of the comments I said, “With a little tweaking you can combine ir sensor technology and a projector to create this kind of interactive surface on any wall. With a little more work you can make those interactive surfaces follow you from [...]
Battlestar Galactica the Finale
Posted by Nick the Geek in All, Geek on 21. Mar, 2009 | 0 Comments
My SYP post is late today because I watched the series finale of Battlestar Galactica. I watched the show from the beginning and almost gave up on it as they got more and more political. At one point the humans found an uncharted planet and decided to settle. The cylons found them and the two [...]
What the Fy?

I just posted on an article I read so I’m scheduling this one for tomorrow because Katdish can’t keep up. (Happy now kat?) SciFi is changing the name of their channel. It will now be SyFy (yeah you thought the Fy was for something else. Dirty dirty minds need to be cleaned with soap and [...]
Weird but true facts

Did you know the human stomach can hold about a quart of food? Have you ever spilled a quart of oil? I have. It is amazing how much is actually in that little bottle of oil. It can spread across several feet of garage floor. I can also say that you would be amazed at [...]
