OK, I just Found Out I'm a bit Nerdy

I'm not a total nerd. Nor am I a true geek, though I work with computers.

I'm a bit too social to be a nerd for one thing. And, I'm not a true expert in computers. I endeavor to be, but I'm not a guru by any stretch-- which precludes me from being a geek.

I am a bit nerdy and geeky, though. I found out I'm more so than I once thought after I found myself really enjoying watching the first season of The Big Bang Theory on DVD.

I really get that show; Watching The Big Bang Theory helps ease my IT Crowd withdrawal. It doesn't totally quench my withdrawal, but it does help ease the ache.

Damn! When are they going to release the 4th season of IT Crowd on DVD?!

Hopefully after I've caught up on The Big Bang Theory and Battlestar Galactica the next season of IT Crowd will be out.

Geesh, I am a nerd and a geek.

NBA Awesomeness!

I'm an LA Lakers fan. Have been since Magic Johnson graced the basketball court.

My second favorite team is the Boston Celtics. I admire their rivalry against the Lakers. Larry Bird was awesome, as well as the other Celtics of that era that played by his side. Same goes for the rest of the Lakers, of course.

Regardless of the respect that I have for the Celtics, (and regardless of the fact that I have a little Irish in me) I cheer on the Lakers whenever they are up against any other team. After the Lakers, I cheer on the Celtics.

So, I'm really enjoying this year's NBA playoffs. I almost want them both to win, but deep down inside, I want the Lakers to win it the most.

So, I thought it was total sweetness when Derek Fisher made that one-on-three lay up against the Celtics. I think that was the straw that broke the Celtic's back in Game Three of the 2010 Finals.

Now, if I could just get the newest season of the IT Crowd on DVD-- man, that would make for a perfect evening!

IT Crowd Withdrawal

Man, when are they going to come out with another season of the IT Crowd on DVD?

I miss seeing that show.

I work in IT, so I get it.

Get it?

Anyway,

The IT Crowd splits my side. I laughed so hard at one scene, I got light headed and felt like I might pass out. I couldn't breath for laughing and yet, I couldn't laugh hard enough at the same time.

I've never had a fit of laughter like that in all my life!

But many other scenes are close contenders on my laugh meter.

My wife and I both love watching that show. We just say lines from the show to each other as inside jokes.

If you watch it, see it from the beginning. The first episode might be a bit weak. But after that, it's all on.

You can get it on DVD from Netflix. I also think you can watch episodes on YouTube.

I think.

The British Channel4 doesn't seem to allow streaming from outside the country or something. I dunno. If it worked for me, I wouldn't be writing this post. Also, I don't have BBC. I only have bare bones basic cable so I can see my network channels. That screwy digital converter was a bunch of bullshit.

Anyway . . .

See the IT Crowd. You just gotta at least try it.

Oh, but if you don't like watching that sort of thing . . . then, well . . .
