I can’t be the only one who finds this genre absolutely hilarious and entertaining.
“You know you’re gonna hear people rapping about comic books, video games, role-playing, non-deterministic finite automota but you know we’ve all got one thing in common and that’s we’re all trying to preach the gospel of nerd empowerment, you know we’re trying to to spread that nerd pride, spread that nerd love.”
There are some mild profanities in the video so if they will offend you don’t watch it.
My Lego Robotics kids are awesome. What could be cooler than mentoring a bunch of 9-14 year olds playing with Lego and Robotics (we’re getting the brand new NXT system, too). Today was the first meeting and they watched some of the FIRST Lego League kickoff videos then we had a bit of a Q&A. Tuesdays are actually pretty good since the bus to Sempar passes campus right after my tutorial finishes. Tomorrow at 4:30 P.M. is the deadline for applications for mentors so at that point I’ll know who else is interested in helping. I filled in the Police Check form online so that should be ready in a week or two. There’s another FLL rookie team in Kingston made up of home-schoolers and we’re probably going to get together to do a practice competition before the real one at Calvin Park on November 11th.

So, I’ve found I have a lot of links that are either bookmarked across different machines or which I’ve e-mailed to myself in the past and currently just check my inbox to find again. Needless to say, things are a lot less organized than they could be as the current situation is. That’s why I’ve decided to create this Links page. It’s categorized (somewhat) and should help out with organising things. Yes, I know of things like bookmarklets and del.icio.us that would be alternative ways of approaching this problem but none of them seem to be something that I’m in the habit of using.
