It pays to be a geek these days....and the geeks of today aren't like the geeks of 20 years ago. We may still do the D&D thing, comic books, Star Trek, etc., but the pocket protectors, dorky glasses, and mom's station wagon have been replaced by tattoo's, piercings, and Harley's.

I find no enjoyment at all in D & D type games.
On the other hand, I LOVE big old station wagons!

I wouldn't know....I went to private schools.
Funny. It doesn't show...
Private schools in Louisianna...that means class was held in a double-wide, right?

Hell no...that's the college.
I did however attend two of my last three years of high school in the St. Tammany Parish Public School system....

The year I wasn't in the public school system for high school (my Junior year), I was at the Louisiana School for Math, Sciences & Arts.
http://www.lsmsa.edu/
And was chosen for Louisiana Boy's State in 1985 (and for those of you who don't know what Boy's/Girl's State are in the differnt states...it just shows that you're a bit down on the evolutionary ladder
)
But prior to my three years in the public school system, I went to New Orleans Academy (private military school).
All this adds up to a 30 composite on the ACT (33 in Math), a CS degree, and top it off with the fact that I'm better looking than you.

While I respect the fact that you're comfortable with your 'imperfections', that doesn't mean you're ready for the cover of GQ.

I'm no prize pig myself. GQ will NOT be calling anytime soon.
