Nerd Credentials

I am a nerd at least that is what I am told. Even in high school I was picked on for it. I don’t know if I would say I was bullied but I was defiantly picked on. Even to this day I am a nerd though and now a days I am not even scared to admit it.

Lets review the facts.

  1. I like comic books
  2. I like comic movies
  3. I love computers
  4. I love gadgets
  5. I like to work on computers
  6. I like Star Wars and Star Trek

Lets talk about comic books and the movies that go along with them. I collect comics and I like going to the comic stores. I have been collecting comic books since I was 10 or 11. I have seen every movie that is based of a comic book even if it is a bad version. As we speak I am watching “Daredevil” staring Ben Affleck. So that should say something.

My favorite comic book movies are as follows:

  1. Iron Man
  2. Batman (Christopher Nolan)
  3. Batman (Tim Burton)
  4. Spiderman
  5. A History of Violence
  6. Blade
  7. Sin City
  8. Hell Boy
  9. The Incredibles (not really a comic book movie but it might as well be)

Worst Comic Book Movie has to Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.

I am not going to debate which is better Star Wars or Star Trek because I am not that guy. My opinion doesn’t matter to that many people so why should I try to make people who have already have made up there mind.

I am going to school for Computer Networking. I will graduate with an Associate’s Degree in May. I have been messing around with computers since I was very young, I can’t give you a certain age because I don’t really remember. I remember having a Commodore 64.

So those are my Nerd credentials.

If you have any questions just ask and I will reply.

Comic Con Dreams

I am wanting to attend my first Comic Con but I never been to one. I would love to go to COMIC CON in San Diego but I can’t afford it this year. I also think I should start off small. There are a couple that I have been looking into but I am not sure. My wife says she will go with me but I can tell she really doesn’t want to. I had a friend who I am sure would have went but he moved to the other side of the country. So here I am a nerd that doesn’t have any nerdy friends. Don’t get me wrong I have friends, I have the best friends in the world, I am just saying they are not nerds who would enjoy a comic con.

I am not even sure what goes on at a Comic Con. So if someone wanted to fill me in what happens there i would appreciate it. I know some things from looking on the World Wide Web but I want to hear about some experiences. I really want to have my own experiences.

So I am thinking that if I can’t find a partner in crime to go with me I am going to drag my wife along. I don’t think she will enjoy it but she is a trooper and will try to have a good time. She will take pictures of me with people and characters.
