Geek Draft

We have completed the first round picks. I would like thank all the participants for going along with my mad scheme. There have been some classic standbys as well as some very interesting choices. You can check these out at the Geek Draft Table. And if you have no idea what I'm talking about, you can check the description and rules here.

Now we move on to Round Two. Leigh, make your selection.

Geek Draft

I'm bringing back a project Widge tried out several years ago, the Geek Draft. Similar to Fantasy Football and the various drafts done over at C.H.U.D., participants would take fictional characters and create a team for some purpose. This time we are going try out using Twitter to improve the process. Six lucky contestants will take the challenge and see how good their popular cultural knowledge really is.

Here's your mission. Your five person team must retrieve the Great McGuffin from The Vault. No one knows what security systems, defense mechanisms, or security personnel guard The Vault. But no one that has tried to breach The Vault has survived.

[[ Rules and stuff ]]

Colors Are Overrated Digest #9

Oakley SI Assault Boot

  • Oakley is doing its part to fight Skynet, since apparently they make the official boot of the robot apocalypse. The S.I. Assault Boot they make was originally made for military only, and then they made a street version. And Christian Bale's John Connor wears them in Terminator: Salvation. As part of their push for their boots and the film, Oakley is offering two passes to see the movie with $175 in purchases. And that would be...these boots. They're awesome, but pricey. Check them out on Amazon here.

    The Last Time You'll See Two Space Shuttles Parked on Two Launch Pads Together

    ...unless you're watching a Michael Bay film. Then it could happen at any moment.

    All seriousness aside, we're looking at space history here. Excuse the racket made by the helicopter from which the footage was shot.
