I love to delve into the "how things work" spectrum of life (nerdy side). Also, I have absolutely no shame, will make a fool of myself to get someone to smile, and I'm generally clumsy. It's pretty much like putting a code-monkey on speed and giving him two left feet. I’m definitely a nerd and a dork. I love to delve into the “how things work” spectrum of life (nerdy side).

It is a website that advocates a smaller government by exposing the ways that the government is improperly doing things. It is definitely enlightening because they show ways that our very own federal government (of the United States of America) are doing things that most of us would very likely disapprove of. Many of these things do not seem all that legal in light of the 10th amendment. [...] [...] Lately I have been reading and enjoying Big Government, which is a website created by Andrew Breitbart.

Maybe the fact that I was researching the differences among the three proves the point? I sometimes find myself making connections among random topics out loud and then realize nobody else is following my train of thought. Awkward. Especially since I'm the boss. Interestingly, I read on another site that nerds only hook up with other nerds but that geeks can be with non-geeks. Hmm. My wife is neither a nerd nor a geek but my girlfriend is both. Odd, that.

A lot of people would probably consider me a nerd, a geek, or both, and I'm sure a lot of self-proclaimed nerds and geeks would ostracize me for wearing fancy clothes and not being socially awkward (albeit very introverted). Here's a deal! I won't consider those words insults, if you don't consider the subsequent punch in the face an insult? 'Kay? :D (And before anyone makes this accusation, no, I'm not being defensive because people used to call me that a lot. I was never called a nerd, and I think that I might have been called a geek once, but I don't really remember. The people who bullied me didn't mess around with milder insults like those; they went straight for the jugular. So, it bothers me when people expect me to call <i>myself</i> names, now that I'm finally away from the people who did it for me...)

Those are the ones that do not have Professional Integrity. They’ll also end up being your boss, but more on that later. ....SO someone thats not good at what they do will end up being the nerd's boss? makes little sense.
