Geeks

When I was growing up being a Geek was a bad thing.

Not so much today.

My students told me that being a Geek means-

" you will be rich and people will be working for you!".

I thought about this.

Our friend/ neighbor is a Geek.

He is a professor-teaches PhD students--geeks.

He has lots of " fun toys".

In his living room he has a flat screen TV , X box, PS3 and Wii.

One of the games he plays on the PS3 is a driving game.

You race around famous cites and try to be the first one done.

This would be fine for most people--but not this Geek.

He bought a car bucket seat, brake and gas pedals and steering wheel.

He hooked the game controls to the pedals and the steering wheel.

So now when you play, you actually drive the car.

Luke thought this was BRILLANT and we should get one!

But I ask you, who would buy this?

A married person with kids is not going to have this in their living.

So that leaves , unmarried 20 somethings that spend their money on " Fun Toys".

AKA --Geeks!
