Hello readers! Camping last week was pretty great. Had a little bit of rain, but got to do some hiking, cooking, and reading. In the time since my return, I've been watching some cartoons and other animation. Let's discuss some things.
Read MoreHi Readers! This coming week is my vacation; a lovely trip up to the mountains to camp. I very excited to be heading out of town. But, I'm also very excited to share with all of you, the geeky things that I've done this week. Let's get to that now, and then we can talk about next week.
Read MoreHi readers! I had another week away from home, but this time I was able to bring my DS with me, and actually played some games. Granted, these games were old, but at least I was doing something. And, while at home, I spent some time watching some YouTube series that teach about some esoteric subjects. So, let's talk about some stuff.
Read MoreHello readers! I spent last weekend up in the mountains away from such pesky things at cell phone reception and wireless internet access, which made it a bit challenging to put together an article for you all. Unfortunately, I also was doing field work last week, and was therefore kept away from my geeky pursuits. So, what did I end up doing in that last two weeks? Read on to find out.
Read MoreAlright folks, time for my last article on DCC 2017. Now that I have had a bit of time to fully digest the three days of super geekdom I want to bring up I felt was done well, and what could have used a bit of improvement.
Read MoreHi readers! In place of my typical Professional Gamer column this week, I'm going to post a wrap up discussion of my time at Denver Comic Con this year. I had a lot of fun and bought a lot of comics and other art. I also had the opportunity (with Chris) to play some video games that are being developed or published by smaller, independent companies.

A few days Nintendo accounced, unsurprisingly, that they would be releasing an SNES Classic system in a similar vein to the NES Classic. The new mini-console will include 21 games including StarFox 2, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Super Mario World, and Earth Bound. The system will also include 2 SNES controllers for a price of $80. The system is set to release this September and will run through 2017. That is all very nice, but should we really care?
Read MoreHi readers! In spite of getting drenched during my commute this morning, I'm feeling good about the weekend. I've got a giant pork roast in the smoker for my (belated) birthday party, and lots of friends over tonight to work on artwork and other projects. Life is pretty good!
The highlight of my geekiness this week was showing Kiki's Delivery Service to my brother's girlfriend. I think I have talked about this movie previously, but I'm always so delighted to show it to someone new. The themes of finding your passion and inner strength, moving to a new city, and establishing oneself as a person in a career. In addition, the new blu-ray version is great, with crisp, vivid colors. I'm regretting that I don't have some better to speakers to enjoy the remastered audio as well.
I'm looking forward to Denver Comic Con next weekend, but it will likely prevent me from getting my regular article together. I'm planning to write a bit on my experiences and the comics that I end up buying. Have a great week and game on!
Hey all! Here is my review of the book “Fangirl” by Rainbow Rowell.
This book follows Cath and her twin sister, Wren as they navigate their first year of Collage. In her first year of college we watch as Cath navigates new responsibilities with schoolwork, form new relationships and redefine old ones while she closes the chapter on her life with the end of a book series that has become such a big part of her life. Cath is your normal freshman in college, learning the ropes at a new school and figuring out that not everything works out the way you want. Something that is very different from the world that she has created as a fanfic author of the fictional, “Carry On”.
