Do you think of roller coasters? Unless it's a cheese ride, no thank you. I do not like getting sick.
Is on the walls of your room? Not much, actually. Been here almost two years and still only have a few things up... my collection of things on sticks, my AOD poster, my Iron Giant poster, my Penny Black (a very very old stamp), and my charcoal seal. Plus lots of comics on my door.

Broken the law? Does Napster count?
Ran away from home? Yes, the pool, the box of cheese, you all know the story, right?
Broken a bone? Nope.
Played strip poker? I played online strip trivia once. I won. At the end the guy (it was a guy, of course, and I knew perfectly well what he was after the whole time) said something like "well, you've got me completely naked now... what do you want to do to me?"

Regardless of the artistic merit of other comics, I reserve the right to get annoyed when I absolutely cannot get mine to look the way it usually does. ;)

May I have my geek points now?

47 - Originated from Pamona College in California in the late 60s/early 70s (I think). When Joe Menosky (spelling?) began writing for Star Trek: The Next Generation, he tried to put it in his scripts as much as possible. It became a running gag with the writers, and later the viewing public.

As I recall, the fascination with 47 started when two college students were sitting around and one thought that the "47" was on more license plates than one would expect. He estimated about 2%. Being the nerds that they were, he and his buddy tried to check this with a "random" sample of licence plates, looking at cars in parking lots or on the freeway. Oddly enough, when they finished their research, the numbers actually did suggest that "47" was on 2% of California licence plates.

Alternately, it's the answer to life, the universe, and everything, adjusted for inflation.

Wow... I didn't even know there was a specific reason for the guy to be obsessed with 47.

Marry me, Jaqk. That Enterprise tape can be my dowry.

Re: May I have my geek points now?

A clarification (because I was a tad with my construction): Joe Menosky wasn't one of the people who originally developed the 47 hypothesis. Once the duo (their names escape me) found a reason to appreciate the wonderful number, they created a list of various occurances (example: the basketball scene in The Absent-Minded Professor, filmed in the Pamona gym, had a final score of 47-46). Joe Menosky, as both a Pamona alum and a geek, took the number to heart, using it whenever possible.

You might have already known that, I suppose... Just clarifying for those less 47-aware.

Re: May I have my geek points now?

All I knew was that some guy liked to write it into Trek a lot, and other people wound up playing along, and it snowballed from there.
