The Geeky Christmas Playlist
Posted on December 11, 2012 Written by Leave a Comment
I don’t know about you, but I think being able to create playlists on the iPod (or any other music player) is the best thing since sliced bread. With the thousands and thousands of music scattered all over my iPod, I just can’t be bothered to keep shaking the darned thing to skip to the [...]

There used to be a time when a mixtape was the sweetest thing a person could do for his (or her) special someone. If you were alive during those days, you would certainly appreciate the work and time that went into creating a single mixtape, not the least of which was selecting and recording the [...]

There’s something to be said about maps, and I might not be a cartography nerd, but it can be fun looking at maps. That is, as long as I am not expected to actually find my way around. Now there are maps that you use to get your bearings, and there are maps that you [...]

As I said before in my post about the recipe for Skyrim Sunlight Souffle, I haven’t had the chance to play Skyrim. So I can’t really claim to know all about the music in the game, but thank goodness for YouTube! Yes, I think the theme music is impressive. Very impressive. This cover by Jason [...]

Earlier this year, we saw Leonard Nimoy in a music video that I never thought I’d see him in. As it turned out, the video was actually pretty amusing. It was so wrong to see “Spock” live such a dump of a life, but the entire production turned out well. This time, we have another [...]

Around the time we celebrated Pi Day (I am assuming you guys ate your fair share of pie in March), musician Michael John Blake released his interpretation of what pi sounds like [...]
