I'm Gonna Hack You In Two With A Hatchet

By
No, this week's TBT is not a horror flick. This just happens to be one of the most hilarious lines from a little known made for tv movie called Camp Cucamonga. For some reason, it's always been a family favorite. We were all able to get together this past weekend to celebrate my mother's birthday and there were several references, including part of the rap from the movie. Yup...that's just the kind of family we are.   The movie was released for television in September of 1990 basically just to display a plethora of popular television actors of the time, but ended up being a quality product despite some of the cheese. The title was briefly changed to How I Spent My Summer, but now can be found again under the original title. The all-star cast included Candace Cameron (Full House) and Jaleel White (Family Matters), which covered our TGIF days. Then we have Josh Saviano and Danica McKellar from The Wonder Years. We also get to see heartthrob Chad Allen from My Two Da...

Busy Weekend!

By graphics_girl
I have an announcement to make. I am pretty sure I am nearly the worst blogger. Between kids sports and currently being stuck in a Netflix black hole with Arrow....I just can't get AHEAD. Anyway, that being said, this weekend has got an awful lot of nerdy stuff going on, and I wanted to give you a quick rundown. Saturday, May 3rd Free Comic Book Day. FREE COMIC BOOKS??? Go to the Free Comic Book Day page  to find a participating store near you each locations rules. There is a free book for EVERY taste. My boys plan on grabbing Teen Titans Go and I'm hoping to get Guardians of the Galaxy and check out some of their multi comic bundles. Oh, I almost forgot about the FCBD  HeroClix that my oldest can't wait to get his hands on!!! The local store we'll be stopping at tomorrow has artists stopping in, a photo op area, and pop up Hydra themed bar! Saturday, May 4th Star Wars Day. May the 4th Be With You! Check starwars.com for sales, games and events near you...

And They Lived Geekily Ever After

By
So it's not Friday quite yet, but I wanted to write about a cool blog that I stumbled upon. I had seen some things from her on Pinterest, but just located the blog today and as I'm working on planning my own happily ever after, I thought I'd share some of the neat ideas. Every geek couple is different. We all have our fandoms and sometimes we're lucky enough to share them with our significant other. I'm a Marvel girl and my man is DC, but somehow we make it work. :) Anyway, there's a good chance that there will be several geeky elements in our wedding...it's just who we are. I think we'll probably be more subtle about it, but it will most certainly be there. If you're reading this blog, chances are you're a geek, too. Hopefully you've found someone who you will share that with you. If you're thinking about getting yourself a permanent player 2, you should check out When Geeks Wed . Cassandra features weddings from every fandom. Whethe...
