A Nerdly View From My Phone

The Haiku
Dragons will eat you
If you baste yourself in mail
And lack pointy sticks

With stories of dragon attacks and watching a Star Wars room on Extreme Home Makeover (my goodness! The boy had a cockpit desk jumping to hyperspace on one wall and an X-Wing bed making the Death Star run (complete with Vader’s TIE firing) on the other) I have decided to show you some of the stuff I captured today on my phone:
Mad Cat
At Sunday school a kid asked me to build a robot. I built a Mad Cat Mk II taking out a Raptor fighter.


Of the marketing ploys used, which book is a junior high boy supposed to read? Or do they not read but only grunt over a grill? This was in the teen section.

Have you seen the Titan AE-ish Doomsday Vault? Reminds me of the frozen room in the season finale of LOST (which can be watched and understood having not followed the rest of the show – it branches into crazy sci-fi and military action. Worth your time.). Also, the nickname generator is pretty funny. My nickname is “Huckleberry Pinhead” (my mother named me after her favorite literary figure – Ethan Frome).
