My mouth hit the floor when I read the title of this thread earlier on Geeks. A drawback to being a Geek – what?! Are you kidding me? Being a Geek is the best possible thing to be. We have it all – brains, looks, girls… what more could we want? The looks, well, just because they are funny looks at times means nothing. It’s just part of the total package that makes us so amazingly perfect, right? And the girls – ahhh, the girls – we all know that Geek boys get all the girls, right? Wait, what? You have trouble finding a girlfriend? Well, perhaps if you showered more often, and stopped being so nervous around the fairer sex. Fine. The looks and the girls may be lacking. But we have the brains! And the brains get us the money! And the money gets us more Geeky gadgets! Who needs girls, anyway?

@AlohaBruce is about to enjoy the fish sampler at @OriginalRoys.

My glass glows. It’s sex on the beach! Thanks to @tikisgrill and @mahalomichael.

Yes, this video will get a million views. Why? I don’t know! Pixie isn’t sure exactly what’s going on, but that’s ok. She’s often clueless when it comes to funny sounds emanating from my office.

I love Halloween. It’s so much fun to see all the kids in their little costumes. Heck, it’s sometimes even fun to see the grownups in their costumes, as well! But most of all, I love to see Wicket and Pixie all dressed up for the day. I’ve even been known to dress up in recent years, myself.

You know you want to brag to all of your friends because you know me. You’re a Gnomie, right? I’ve been running Lockergnome for about 13 years now, and I wanted to give something back to everyone who has supported me. So, go have some fun over at the new photo site!

It seems that everyone is doing screencasts, other than me. I do them every so often, but it takes a lot of time. I know I don’t do them as well as many of you can do. So, I’m going to give you an opportunity to do screencasts for my YouTube channel. What’s in it for you? Promotion, of course! You’ll be promoted not only on my YouTube channel, we’ll also link off to YOUR YouTube channel. We’ll also send out notifications on Twitter, Facebook, and promote you in our newsletters. That, my fellow Geeks, is one heck of a lot of promotion! We can promote your YouTube channel, your website, or your Twitter account – it’s entirely up to you!

On a recent trip to Fatburger, I became involved in a burger eating contest. I thought “hey, no sweat! I can pack away a burger pretty fast”. This, of course, was before they brought out the WTF Burger. When I took a look at what I was supposed to eat, I indeed thought WTF!!! This thing isn’t a burger, it’s a monster. It is, however, delicious. I’m happy to report that I managed to eat about half of this sucker… even though it’s pretty much the size of my head.

Earlier today, I posted a video (and blog post) filled with tips on how to maximize your comprehension when it comes to whatever you are reading. That video made me reflect on the types of things I tend to read. I don’t often sit down with a book. When I do, though, my concentration is so absolute that I tend to tune out everything else. I let myself become absorbed by the text. This allows me to truly comprehend and digest whatever it is I’m reading.

I’ve done several videos now to share your favorite places to visit in your hometowns. There’s been such an overwhelming number of these that I can’t possibly record them all! Since this one comes from a guy who claims that Denmark is the home of Geeks, I HAD to share it. I am a Geek, after all, and I’m assuming you are as well (since you’re watching my videos!). These are the things you should do if you ever visit Denmark – according to Nicolai.

Wicket and I both love bacon. If you don’t like bacon, then maybe you’ve never had GOOD bacon. It’s also inspired other products on the marketplace, so I decided to try nine of them. There’s everything from jelly beans to toothpicks to bacon soap! Which one will you try first?

Have you seen the trailer for the ‘9′ movie yet? I happened to catch a teaser for it in theaters earlier this year (and couldn’t wait to see more). I figured anybody who loved Sci-Fi / Fantasy as much as I did would likely want to see the movie, too.

I am able to change the music I’m listening to throughout my house by controlling it from one small little tool! This is one of the best things I’ve used in quite awhile, for sure. The Sonos Controller gives you instant access to all your music and all the rooms in your house, with just the touch of a finger… even from my iPhone!

iNudge is probably the coolest new website I’ve come across in quite awhile. You can make a composition of music on your own, and share it with others. You might remember when I demonstrated my Tenori-On awhile back. iNudge is very similar, only it’s online – and free!
