Before Watchmen Panel
I'm naturally skeptical about any watchmen project that doesn't have Alan Moore's endorsement, after this panel I can safely say those bastards will have my money and full support come June.

C2E2 Weekend!!!!
It is time my little nerdlings time for my favorite weekend of the year, where I soak up all the joy I need to sustain me for the rest of the year like a nerdy TARDIS shaped sponge. That's right it is C2E2 weekend and I'm doing it up right.
Tonight I will be attending the Nerdist podcast live to witness the glow of the almighty nerd Chris Hardwick with my own two eyes. To say he had an influence on my dreams and this website is like saying the atmosphere had an influence on the wind. Without him it simply wouldn't be possible.
Saturday I will spend from dawn till dusk in the majestic halls of McCormick Place and for those of you who can't attend these glory filled events fear not, I will take pictures and attempt to post them in real time to the site.
Hopefully I'll see some of you there to the others remember always

Nerd Love part V
Fresh installment of Nerd Love for your reading pleasure. I struggled to come up with a good first date idea but I think this played out well. Enjoy and remember always
Nerds Do It Better
(It’s Friday night, Brent is dressed in a tuxedo and is picking up Casey at her apartment. She is wearing an elegant red dress)
Brent: Wow, you look great (he opens the car door for her)
Casey: Thanks (She gets in)
Brent: (begins to drive) I hope you like fun
Casey: Where are we going?
Brent: You’ll see
(after a 10 minute drive Brent pulls into an apartment complex, his.)
Casey: What is this?
Brent: Just follow me (he leads her up the stairs to his apartment, they enter and it is clean with a candle lit on his small kitchen table with two plates, a rose on one)
Casey: This is your apartment
Brent: Yes it is
Casey: You told me to dress formally!
Brent: and you look absolutely stunning
Casey: What are we supposed to eat??
Brent: I have a couple frozen pizzas, pepperoni or sausage?
Casey: are you kidding?
Brent: I also have both my super Nintendo and N64 set up on the TV.
Casey: …really?
Brent: and Mario kart for both
Casey: …pepperoni
(They are sitting on the floor still in formal wear with plates and crusts next to them playing N64)
Casey: HAHA Eat it!
Brent: What the CRAP woman, you kicked my ass
Casey: Yeah I didn’t get out much as a kid
Brent: Me neither
Casey: Well I have to admit this was pretty fun
Brent: I’m glad, was it fun enough to perhaps do it again
Casey: Perhaps, but I’d prefer to not be in heels next time
Brent: Sorry, I even make my friend Greg wear heels when he comes in here
(Casey shoves him and laughs. She then leans in and kisses him. Brent is shocked and left wide eyed and speechless. Casey lightly slaps his face)
Brent: (brought back to earth) What?
Casey: hehe come on, you have to take me home
Brent: Home. Right yes good.
( the next day Brent enters Variant Lifestyle dancing, poorly)
Gwen: Uh what?
Brent: Last night went awesome
Gwen: Really?! (The both start dancing in a circle, again poorly. Greg enters)
Greg: …I assume by this lack of rhythm clinic you goes are running, things went well last night
Brent: They went better than well if I do say so myself
Gwen: Awesome was the word used I think
Greg: Well now we have to meet her
Brent: and why is that?
Greg: it’s us or your parents
Brent: I think I can manage a meet and greet.
Gwen: Bring her over for dinner tomorrow, I can make my special soup!
Brent and Greg: Great!
Brent: (to Greg) Don’t you fucking let her make that soup, I swear there were raisins in it last time.
Greg: (to Brent) I’m on it.
Gwen: It’s been
so long since I got a chance to cook. Greg thinks it is demeaning to all women
if I do
Greg: Yep, you shouldn’t have to cook all the meals
Gwen: You never let me cook ANY meals
Greg: I’m VERY forward thinking
Brent: Greg is a good guy, your very lucky to have him blahblahblah ANYWAY I better get going calls to make and so forth (he leaves)
Gwen: What were you guys whispering about
Greg: Football? (Gwen stares) Sex? Football sex? It’s a new fetish apparently, Brent’s girl is into it.
Gwen: Huh. Well I’m off to start my soup preparations. (Gwen leaves)
Greg: …I’m sure that won’t come up.
