The Lord of the Rings trilogy restored the balance in the Force after the Star Wars prequels ruined everything that was awesome about being a nerd at the movies.

Even when I was little, people would always ask me if I wanted to be a movie star, and I would always say, "No, I just want to be an actor."

Being a nerd is not about what you love, it's about how you love it.

Some ISPs are blocking all BitTorrent traffic, because BitTorrent can be used to share files in a piratical way. Hollywood lobbying groups are trying to pass laws which would force ISPs to block or degrade BitTorrent traffic, too. Personally, I think this is like closing down freeways because a bank robber could use them to get away.

I like to quote things.

Things every person should have: •A nemesis. •An evil twin. •A secret headquarters. •An escape hatch. •A partner in crime. •A secret identity.

My wife is the most awesome person in the universe. She's made this experience much less miserable for me, with her compassion, patience and understanding.
