Geek is chic?

Why bother with a personals ad, when you could just be mentioned in the NY Daily News? That's what happened to blogger CGHill of Dustbury. From the article:

...more women are discovering the allure of brainy men who admit they're more experienced at computer games than the game of love.

I'd like to let the ladies know that in school, I was the kid that the geeks beat up for lunch money so they could go to Radio Shack. I expect that I shall now be inundated in the lovelies, oh yeah.

3 And how effective was this little blurb in overwhelming my love life?

You'll note I have plenty of time to read this and post a comment.

4 Ted, you should have posted a "hot" photo of yourself with your Commodore 64! That would have totally brought 'em in.

5 Ha! I was an Atari 800 guy. I saved programs on cassette tape.

Oh man, I can't wait for the flood.

6 Mine was a Tandy Color Computer II, w/ tape drive hooked up to my parents color tv, in the living room.

Do I have you beat?

Oh, and I didn't mention the tape on my glasses too.

And the mullet.

7 I only dated brainy men, geeky or not. I have a saying, "The Geeks ultimately rule the world." I prefer to be on their team.

BTW, you have a birthday coming up. ;-)
