Geek 2 B
« on: September 08, 2008, 12:30:36 PM »
Hey y'all  :-D

Just a friendly wave - I'm super intimidated, I'm definitely a geek but not so much a computer geek...I've always loved geeks, however, and I am hoping that immersing myself with fellow geeks who may surpass me in brilliance may bring my IQ up a few notches  :wink:  Anyone need a Geekprentice?  ;o)

HOWDY HOWDY HOWDY, have a lovely day and I hope I'm not too much of a dork to be a geek!

Cheers,

J

That would be remarkable. I've only ever seen IQs go down on the internets.

Plummet, more like.

Sweet, a fan. I've never had a fan before.  :mrgreen:

Salutations, by the by, and welcome to the forum. Beside geeks, what other interests do you have?

Thanks!!!  :oD

Hahaha, I guess in terms of geekiness, I'm pretty much the biggest geek for puppets, movies, and herb gardens (yes, I name all my plants)...Dexter, David Bowie, waterslides, chilling to Beatles records, Settlers of Catan and other geeky boardgames, and finding random trash on the street that I can make into something that talks  :-D 

Right now I'm dabbling in web design and feeling just how rusty my geekwings really are!  I've gotten into the swing of things with Photoshop and now I'm trying to conquer Dreamweaver...but for now it's conquering me!  Arg!!!

Thanks for the warm welcomes, hehehe

Look at you, hacker: a pathetic creature of meat and bone, panting and sweating as you run through my corridors. How can you challenge a perfect, immortal machine?

I know what you mean.  I sometimes feel like the dumbest smart person in the room.  Other times, I just I just feel dumb.
