Also made of greatness are the Cthulhu Rising shoes.  Check out the whole line ..read more

I’m back from my three week vacation.  Mexico to Salt Lake City to Seattle, with a few stops along the way.  While in Seattle for the Fourth of July (by the way, I didn’t realize how much I missed fireworks in Washington…mortar shells, roman candles, saturn missiles…) my brother-in-law Ali told me to stop being lazy and do a blog post because he’s tired of seeing JarJar Binks.  So, here it is Ali.  A blog post about ..read more

A whole bunch of Seeker items have been going for auction up on ebay lately.

A Geeky April Fools’ Day to You!

Christy
Thursday
12:46 pm

As someone who was perpetually lied to as a child by my Dad (yeah, that pirate in Swiss Family Robinson not really my uncle like I was told when I was six), I love April Fools’ Day.  There was that time I put Kool-Aid on my college roommate’s dark blue towels and she spent the whole day with splotchy red skin.  Or when my sisters and I made “Chocolate Delights” by catching giant ants from the tree in the backyard, dipping them chocolate and serving them to our Mom.  Wait, that wasn’t April Fools’ Day, that was just a Sunday afternoon when I was 11.  My point is that I ..read more

Valentines For A Geek Girl

That time of chalky delicious conversation hearts is upon us.  Hold up!  They used to be delicious, but Necco decided to introduce new flavors for 2010.  No sooner did they touch my tongue than I had to spit them out.  I may be forced to make my own conversation circles from a roll of Necco Wafers.  In spite of my conversation heart woes I have compiled a Valentine’s Day gift guide for the geek girl in your ..read more

No Fate

I know this is far from official, but for fans of Sarah Connor Chronicles there still is hope that there will be storyline closure. There were rumors a while back that there would be a direct to DVD movie to wrap up the second season finale cliffhanger (spoilers – where John Connor leaves his mother in the past, literally, to fight the future IN the future.)

Brian Austin Green was in my friend’s store a few days ago and said it was still a possibility/their working on it. I know, I know, this is no great big announcement. But it makes me happy to know that it’s still ..read more

Hey, Ballmer … where’s my Courier booklet PC?

Ever since videos of Microsoft’s prototype Courier hit the web, we’ve been drooling over the potential. But after Steve Ballmer’s speech at CES last night, the company pulled a reverse Apple, turning hype into disappointment.

If you’re unfamiliar with the Courier, be ready to be wowed. If you’ve seen it before, snuggle yourself in coolness all over again. The device has/had some truly innovative features. Basically, it took two seven-inch screens and bound them together like halves of a book. One screen is a low-power Kindle-like e-ink screen, while the other is a more conventional LCD used for web and multimedia viewing.

The device was useful, compact and incredibly forward ..read more
