Your geekiest dreams?
Started this discussion. Last reply by Troy Bird Aug 7, 2012. 1 Reply 0 Favorites
As a geek, and recent geek dad, I've greatly pondered where I want to end up, things that I wish to do. And while I am leaving a certain legacy with a geekling of my own, there are a few other dreams…Continue

Russell Collins commented on Phil Grandin's blog post 'Time to hang up the sword, Link'"I have to agree with Michael there. Right now, I can squeeze some time in while the kiddo heads down for a nap. And then one or two nights a week I tend to veg out on the xbox, work schedule and wife allowing me to that is. I have learned though,…"
Russell Collins replied to Daniel Donahoo's discussion 'The Joyful Moments of Being a GeekDad'"That, and my daughter pointing to the tv when the Mummy was playing at Oded Fehr (the long haired Egyptian guy) and exclaimed "Ate!" Ate is the Lakota word for father. Nearly shed a tear of pride when I heard that."
Russell Collins replied to Daniel Donahoo's discussion 'The Joyful Moments of Being a GeekDad'"My wife encouraged me to start singing more to our 6 month daughter because she loves the sound of my voice. So, I tried random songs with little smiles. Then the idea hit me... I have Beatle's Rock Band. I popped it in, started working through…"
Russell Collins replied to Dave Hale's discussion 'Forum Games: Bacon Movies'"Let us not forget the Robert Rodriguez classic "Planet Bacon." And the movie that made us fear about dreaming about it... "A Bacon on Elm Street.""
Russell Collins replied to Dave Hale's discussion 'Forum Games: Bacon Movies'"Well, there's the classic musical "The Sound of Bacon." Next is something any pork lover should not go without, "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Bacon." Next is the Christmas classic "Bacon on 34th St." And one of the…"
Russell Collins replied to Glenn Gass's discussion 'Geek Family Convention'"And of course you have to think about timing and distance. Since we are all spread out not just throughout the country, but the world, finding a place that would be easy to travel to might make things a little bit more difficult.
Personally, I think…"
Troy Bird replied to Russell Collins's discussion 'Your geekiest dreams?'"I noticed that no one had replied yet to your original post.
I guess I have all kinds of little mini-dreams. Things like learning better programming and getting out a game lots of people enjoy, or success with my blog and web show. I…"
Russell Collins replied to Randy Slavey's discussion 'Dr. Who Mafia Game'"Wow, great game guys! I had a blast! Good job T Kelly and thank you so much Randy."
Russell Collins replied to Ken Denmead's discussion 'Share Your GeekDad Day Stories Here'"Well, for the most part we had a pretty normal day. Got up, spent some time in bed with the wife and kiddo watching some Psych and just talking. Then it was time to get up and head over to my parents for our obligatory Father's Day dinner. It…"
Russell Collins replied to Randy Slavey's discussion 'Dr. Who Mafia Game'"Well, now it starts to get really interesting. To be honest, I thought that with the fewer people left in the game, the easier it would be to find the scum... but man they are hiding really well. So, I actually am not sure anymore. My suspicions…"
Russell Collins replied to Randy Slavey's discussion 'Dr. Who Mafia Game'"To save you the trouble of looking it up yourself, here's the last post I made at the end of that day. And if you want to make sure that is what was said, please feel free to check for yourself. It's the last post on page 13.
"Well,…"
Russell Collins replied to Randy Slavey's discussion 'Dr. Who Mafia Game'"Well, the reason why I voted for Kevin was simply because we were at an impasse and time was running out. I tried to work with Micheal, even though I still suspected him. Good thing I changed my vote. My internet has been flakey, and I knew that I…"
Russell Collins replied to Randy Slavey's discussion 'Dr. Who Mafia Game'"Well, seeing at how late it is for me, and the fact that I'm not sure if I'll be up before the deadline, I'll officially change my vote.
I unvote Micheal Harrison.
I vote for Kevin Clem"
Russell Collins replied to Randy Slavey's discussion 'Dr. Who Mafia Game'"I think that's fair. I'll agree to that."
Russell Collins replied to Randy Slavey's discussion 'Dr. Who Mafia Game'"Well, now we've got less than 24 hours and two votes for two different people. And this is why I was so "hasty" to get voting started. So, what do we do now? Is there someone all of us can agree on to vote for? To break a stalemate, I…"
