As my fellow bloggers are painfully aware, I occasionally pop by their blogs and stick in my five cents.  This is a great community, no doubt.  Lots of very intelligent folks and good questions.  No shortage of interesting topics.  It’s a good place to go to escape after a hard day at work.

There is one blog, however, that lately tends to confuse the hell out of me.  It’s the blog of our founder (bows head) Chris Pirillo.  I always loved chiming in but I noticed that something has changed.  When I look at the RSS feed, I scan the titles and wonder what happened.  We still have the same amount of years between us (however many that was in the first place) but I’m starting to feel like a stranger in a strange land.

I guess I’ll have to refer to myself as the anti-Pirillo.   Let me give you some examples:

How and Where do you watch TV today?

Using my eyes, in the living room (with a lead pipe?)

How do you keep up on your favorite shows?

I don’t.  It’s just not that important.  It’ll come on again.

Do you watch TV on the internet?

Nope.  Can’t find much that rings my bell.  Plus most of the sites don’t like linux.

Which iPhone bowling game is the best to buy?

The blue one?  How should I know?  I have to come out of the closet here and admit.. I don’t have an iPhone.  I also don’t want an iPhone.  (stop throwing things at me please)

Skype coupons…

The Germans and now the Chinese are eavesdropping on Skype conversations.  If they admit it, it makes one wonder who else is.

Retro Cool Laptop Bags

Huh?

Why?

Are you looking for free desktop wallpapers?

No, but thank you.

Btw, the really large ones tend to slow Windows down (further).

Are you dating a geek?

My wife has a great sense of humor (she married ME) but she made it plain that my dating days are over.

Have you ever raced an ATV?

No.  I tried to ride a small motorcycle once when I was little.  The owner said it was the longest he’d ever seen anybody ride one one wheel before.  Since then, I tend to stick with automatic transmissions and at least four wheels on the ground at all times.

Are you looking to buy a graphics tablet?

No - I can’t draw a straight line with a ruler.

How young were you when you finished college?

Never started, but thanks for asking.

What cola do most geeks drink?

I never thought to ask.  This one is way too fond of Code Red though.

At what point did you know you were a geek?

When I read that Phil Collins was considered a sex symbol.

Would you like to be a hacker, like in the movies?

No, but I’d sure as hell like to ‘run lines’ with Sandra Bullock.

How do you use Twitter?

I don’t.    Presumptive, aren’t we?
