Jim Blizzard gets it up

I'm talking about his Nerd Dinner web site (what did you think I was talking about? remember: you're the sick on here - not me).

It's a blog site, and it looks like there are different blogs for different cities, so you can subscribe just to the cities that matter to you (like the ones you live near, for example (hey - I'm just trying to help)).

If you live in a city that isn't represented, then you can contact Jim about becoming the Nerd Dinner rep in your area.

If you haven't been to a Nerd Dinner, they're really cool: One part user group, one part social outing, and several parts gastronomic nightmare (it's mall food - what do you expect?). Whether you want to network, hang out and talk shop, or just shovel poorly manufactured "food" into your facial orifice in the company of other geeks, Nerd Dinners are a good thing.

We've also talked about forming small gangs to go beat up jocks in the malls after dinner, but I think Jim's waiting for clearance from Microsoft's legal department on that one.

Anyhoo, check it out.


After Blog Mint [?] :

I just found what I'm getting all of you for your birthday.

Rory, I was going to get you the Xtra Salty Gunnery SGT R. Lee Ermey motivational figure

AS SEEN IN THE MOVIE "FULL METAL JACKET"!

http://www.rleeermey.com/motivationalfigure.php

I like to welcome all new developers to our team with this inspirational R. Lee Ermey speech:

"If you ladies survive recruit training, you will be a [DEVELOPER]. You will be a minister of death praying for [MORE DEVELOPMENT TASKS]. But until that day you are pukes. You are the lowest form of life on Earth. You are not even human, fucking beings. You are nothing but unorganized grabastic pieces of amphibian shit. Because I am hard you will not like me. But the more you hate me the more you will learn. I am hard but I am fair. There is no racial bigotry here. I do not look down on niggers, kikes, wops or greasers. Here you are all equally worthless. And my orders are to weed out all non-hackers who do not pack the gear to serve on my beloved [DEVELOPMENT TEAM]. Do you maggots understand that?"
