When is a video game going to make a successful transformation into a blockbuster movie?
From what I've seen over the years (Wing Commander, Doom, etc.), the worst comic books still make better movies than the best video games.
Maybe they should go back to simpler times and make a movie with some imagination. How about Zork The Movie? They could get Ron Perlman to play a grue.
I too could get $7 million from a spammer, and all I would have to do would be to travel to Nigeria to meet the son of the late former Treasurer who was brutally murdered in a coup.
Geek girl, geek girl, I've often overheard;
People say you're a dweeb, and often a nerd.
But I'm sure you're quite intriguing, I bet oh I bet;
Coding, gaming, and surfing, all over the 'Net.
Geek girl, geek girl, I hope you'll agree;
That we appreciate there are girls out there just like me.
I'm always cautious whenever I go into a neighbourhood with an Electronic Boutique, Best Buy, or other computer stores. There's usually two or three geeks hanging out in the alley. You know the ones: pale-skinned nerds with Vendorwear t-shirts from 1999, utility belts with PDAs, pagers, and cell phones. I always try to avoid these alleys, for fear that I will be beset with geeky talk about overclocking, case modifications, or World Of Warcraft debates.
I like the idea of a button with this function. But at the same time, it should back-up my Outlook addresses, save my bookmarks, transfer my MP3s to my file server, and then post my used computer listing on eBay.

How do geeks workout? Well, with the Geek Workout of course. All it takes is a couple of bottles of Mt. Dew as weights!!!
Now nerds and geeks have renewed vigor for life and a reason to go on living!
I wonder if the John Smiths and Bob Jones of the world still look to see if their myname.com domain is available?
Fact: Beer Makes You Psychic.
I usually just buy my pirated games from The Softwarez Store. With the prices you pay for some games, it's almost the same as stealing.
As reported here, you can map your own quest from Hobbiton to Mount Doom! Google Middle Earth. Keep your "Eyes-On-Guard" for this one!
With the realism in today's games, people are really getting shell-shocked.
Of course we can't forget Canada's delicious Maple Coke, with the thick refreshing taste of maple.
'They wanted me to sign a copy of the game,' defended Taylor, who was at The Software Boutique promoting Dungeon Siege. 'No, I mean an actual copy, burned onto a CD-R! I only intended to sign originals at this promotion.'
I just thought he did. And I thought Windows was the only thing that was being duplicated.
Sometimes, even pirates are on the losing end.

It just so happens that we are celebrating Sysadmin Day with a geeky Sysadmin! These guys deserve the recognition!
I can't wait for the "reimagining" of Galactica 1980...oh wait, yes I can.

What are the chances I'll be able to set up a Counter-Strike server on my flight to Washington?
I don't think it was every "My" computer in the first place. When I was married it was "Our" computer; when we divorced it became "Her" computer.
These 30-second trailers will be more fulfilling than the last two months of movie releases.

This is good news, but the people at the OED Fantasy Fiction project are really getting pissed at all the publicity that the SF project keeps getting.
I wonder which comic is the Kramer equivalent in the Seinfeld "Masturbation episode".
"Yah, I'm out."
