Nerds are about the most predictable creatures on the planet because we are, above all, creatures of habit. We don't like change (unless it's the new XBOX, or a faster processor) and we don't like risk (eBay makes me nervous). We just want our toys, three square meals a day, and to be taken out for a walk once a week.
About Me
Name: neil
Location: Island of Misfit Toys
Occupation: Rocket Scientist
I am a nerd. I went to math competitions and played in the marching band. I can program the VCR and fix the toaster. I can tie my shoes and occasionally match my own clothes. I own four graphing calculators, know what reverse polish notation means, and can compare the strengths and weaknesses of Science Fiction authors. I am the next step in the evolutionary chain.

Are there really such things as metric terrorists? Are there people so twisted that they'll use the beauty and simplicity of base ten to cause fear and mass hysteria? Oh yeah, the French.

What?! Did he really say that? I'm more amazed that he knows the word stupendous.
Katie, clearly you have never watched Tangled. My kids always pick up on 'stupendous' because at first they thought he was saying 'stupid' and that is clearly a bad word.
At least he didn't want to give you the death penalty! (A sign that perhaps he does love you...)
It cracks me up how kids like to use words that seem like naughty words that they can get away with. Still, it makes Madoc seem pretty brilliant to be using words like 'stupendous'.
I was wondering how he learned the word stupendous. Those are some smart kids.
