    Please go on youtube and seach for "geek like me". You might need to add "Rick Emerson" or "Wonderstrucks". I'd do it, but I don't have access to youtube from work.

    It is a song and a video for a really great song about a couple of geeks meet each other and fall in love that's called "Geek Like Me".

    It's by a local talk radio guy and his band. It's pretty much made of awesome. If you're a geek, you'll understand.

    I am a total music geek, and a foreign cinema geek. My particularly geeky things to talk about are hip-hop, particularly old-school, pre-1990 hip-hop and jazz. Oh, and also New Wave German Cinema. I'm kind of a literature geek too. Thankfully most of my friends tolerate it really well and don't tell me to shut the fuck up which is nice because I really enjoy talking about it :D

    I watch the discovery channel a ridiculous amount. I love them all- deadliest catch, dirty jobs, man vs. wild, myth busters...(I also have crushes on all the hosts!)

    Ricky Gervais commented last night that he watches so much on the Discovery & History Channels that you can ask him anything about Nazi's or sharks!

    He added that sharks would have been able to find Anne Frank right away!

    I might be too frazzled and busy to be a true geek; I long for time to obsess over my interests. I live with ueber-geeks, though.

    "Hey Mom, did you know that Sarcosuchus whateverei is thought to have had mating patterns similar to that of Iwasnt listeningus? No, really! Scientists found proof in a fossil bed in --"

    At this point, I put on "Leash" at a volume that makes the car windows rattle. You would, too, if you heard these lectures for several hours each day.

    i'm a GEEK! :D

    i become obsessive with just about anything that i like.

    i hang out in a bookstore to relax. i don't even buy anything most of the time....but i do have a TON of books that i still haven't read sitting on my bookshelf.

    i used to LOVE the show Sliders....i think now it comes on Sci-Fi during the day when i can't watch.

    i've read almost EVERY book that Anne Rice has ever written. when anyone else speaks of vampires....i'm like, "no, only Anne Rice writes about the REAL ones. no other vampire stories compare!"

    i'm really into conspiracy theories. i listen to tons of Podcasts about stuff like that: paranormal activity, time travel, conspiracy theories, the real history of the US, immortals, etc.....and it's not that i believe in it all, but it's very interesting and keeps me occupied as i do my data entry at work. :p

    and i just found out that the series - 4400 on USA was canceled. i'm so heartbroken! :(

    i've read the history of Middle Earth (the Silmarillion) 3 times and love it!

    i've got a story for just about every situation.

    and when i know facts about something, i can't stop myself, i'll tell you everything i know.

    i google just about EVERYTHING!

    i'm such a geek....but i like being a geek! :D
