I traveled into the dark and mysterious interior of the Pittsburgh metropolitan area today to visit the new Pittsburgh History Center . Pretty cool place . It always boggles my mind when I learn about gigantic battles and other major historical events that happened right in the exact area that I walk around on today . It's pretty interesting .
I honestly went there because they have a whole floor dedicated to Pittsburgh sports teams . I just wanted to bask in the glory of Super Bowls past before our boys head to Detroit this Sunday for the big game . I will refrain from making any comments on that for fear of jinxing them , but "One for the thumb " sure would be sweet .
I also went to my favorite comic book store and basked in the geeky splendour contained within . Some people work SO hard to be "cool" . Me...I embrace my geeky nature . For they are my Star Trek shirt wearing , taped glasses having , Monty Python quoting bretheren . Just because I don't live in my parents basement and I have had physical relations with a woman doesn't make me better than them . They accept me into their hallowed halls , and I thank them for that . Be they geek , nerd , spaz , or dweeb ( The word dweeb isn't used nearly enough these days ) , they are all my brothers and sisters . Some day I would like to be the Martin Luther King Jr. of geek rights , but for now...I will be happy using my geeky powers to plot global domination and impress people on message boards with my stunning knowlege of Simpsons quotes and X-Men trivia . If useless knowlege were power , I would be MIGHTY .
P.S. I won over one of my musically retarded friends to The Clash . He was riding in my car with me as I was playing one of their cds and he said " Hey , this band is pretty good . Who are they ? " I answered him and he then said " They must be new , I've never heard of them . " I slapped him several times and made him say twenty "Hail Elvises" for his blasphemy , but then forgave his ignorance and let him borrow my cd . Winning back the world one person at a time .
