I scour the web so you don’t have to!
Your Grandma ain’t got squat on this break dancing granny! Check out the video above to see Grandma Tracy breakdancing at Mad Decent NYC block party, fanny pack and all. It’s safe to say that this 60-something Grandma shows us all that there’s more to aging than prunes and crosswords. YOU GO GRANNY! (via: baratunde.com)

Geek and chic are becoming synonymous these days. I was looking at a fashion blog this morning that was praising the fashion-forward notion of horn-rimmed glasses and suspenders. And, while capitalizing on or bastardizing a culture of people who, only years beforehand were ridiculed for the same appearance seems a bit odd–to say the least–there is something to be said that now–more that ever before–it’s easy for you to look cool. And, trust me, it’s worth it if you want to get the high score with the nerdy ladies.

I spend a lot of time on the internet. That’s an understatement. I spend most of my time on the internet. Why you ask? Well let me show you…
As you may, or may not have seen, the HPOA (hot piece of ass) known as Jenny supposedly quit her job with a dry erase board via e-mail.

There are two different kinds of geeks: those that take the blue pill and the ones that take the red…and depending upon which color you subscribe to; your interaction with the world at large (and the l33t ladies within it) will vary widely.
Take the blue pill and you’ll find that you’re unable to stop talking in social situations. You may not even be conscious of it, but to other observers they can see the looong green lines of code just spilling out of your mouth without end. Take the red pill and you’re so cripplingly shy, you can’t seem to talk to anyone. You just wander thorough various social situations as an observer.
* The annual Perseid meteor shower reaches its peak tomorrow night, with a moonless sky providing near-perfect observing conditions late Thursday into early Friday.
I was drunk. I need to admit that. Drunk as a sailor on leave. I was also laying flat on my back, beer in my hand, on a trampoline. Most of my friends were there that night. One of them was really high, and earlier we had an argument about what we were gathered to observe: a meteor shower. In my alcohol induced wisdom I was directing everyone’s eyes toward the skies. It was this alcoholic wisdom that made me overlook the fact the Earth rotates and thus stars do not sit stationary all night long. I preached like many a crazy preacher man, that the stars were moving, and that THAT was what we got there to see. HAH-LE-LOO-JAH!
You may not recognize his name, but as the man who figured out how to make online adult entertainment pay, Chris Mallick has had a profound effect on our world. “Third-party billing” is not exactly a sexy phrase, but the concept Mallick masterminded revolutionized the way the invisible masses achieved satisfaction, and gave e-commerce its kick-start.

Sure, you could take a girl to dinner and a movie…if that dinner happens to be at Ninja and the movie is Predators. But, why not invite her out to something that will really catch her eye? After all, geeky girls love limited edition items…give her a one of a kind date to remember:
1. Pretend like your Dr. Who and take your companion on an amazing trip through the stars! Invite the lady out to your local planetarium or history museum–like San Francisco’s Academy of Science or Philly’s Franklin Institute — clad in your scarf or bow tie (depending on your doctor of choice) and she’s sure to swoon. (And, she may even touch your sonic screwdriver.) You’ll even get bonus points if you read up on astrophysics and can lend some geeky tidbits about the doppler red shift effect and string cosmology…after all, the Doctor’s had 907 years to learn it all. You’ve got a lot of catching up to do. Better jump in your Tardis now!
