This is reminding me of an old .wav file I have concerning the difference between nerds and geeks.

| I'm a sci-fi reader, feminist fantasy reader, fem. comic book collector, enjoy
Chi-Chian, Aeon Flux (original animated), Hello Kitty freak-I even attend cons in (non-furry) costumes to do fencing demos. I am a geek.
But I'll be at Duel in the Desert, Las Vegas competing in women's vet sabre, and having a killer weekend with my club, Swashbucklers of the OC.
Come see the game from LV- and fence!!!!
Ask me sometime what the 3 f's I live for are.

| I know people like the ones in that movie; every so often they show up to our club babbling about how they would use a claymore if they fenced. I'm not now, nor was I ever, a cool guy, but the dorkiness levels of RIT are astounding even to me.

| Ok, so this is really going to put me firmly in the ubergeek category but...
Was I the only one who was waiting for the "saving throw vs. Fear" punchline?
