I own a Blendtec blender (best small appliance purchase EVER) and an iPad. Never the twain shall meet. Just saying.

We are extremely busy right now with the Share the Warmth campaign for We Can Share so our time to post updates is very limited. In case we don’t have the time or energy to post for a while, we want to wish everyone a happy holiday season.

And in the spirit of sharing, I would like to share this wonderful video from the A cappella group Straight No Chaser.

This is by far one of the coolest things I have seen in a long time. Sam Tsui is simply amazing.

W00T! Geek Movie Weekend!

Ever since we saw the trailer, the entire Geek household has been anxiously awaiting the release of Shane Acker’s animated movie, 9. It appears to be dark, visually stunning and thought-provoking. Awesome! An animated flick that isn’t all Disney and shnizit! Not that I have anything against Disney. It’s just nice to have some animation that isn’t targeted to the Pull-ups demographic.

I try not to read reviews before going to see movies. I find that most critics don’t get it, often being too snooty or trying to make every movie into Driving Miss Daisy – the last movie they truly loved. I did skim the reviews this morning and based on what I read, this is going to be a great flick although it is clearly not for young children. It is rated PG-13 for the violence and strong imagery that may be disturbing for children under 11.

In case you haven’t heard about 9, check out the trailer.

My Day: a film about personal space

I’m a little short on time, inspiration and a desire to write. However, I came across this brilliant animated short by Eamonn O’Neill that I would like to share in the absence of anything resembling original content.

And Eamonn – BTDT and I feel as if you crawled into my head and pulled this out.
