Tuesday, September 15th, 2009Sure, I’ve posted a beautifully-crafted Star Wars Ewok cake on GWS before, but for what this one lacks in finesse, it clearly compensates by perfectly-capturing an Ewok’s glassy-eyed, fixed point stare. That is the deceptively-vacant stare of a cuddly forest-dweller whose buddies can annihilate a Stormtrooper battalion with their tiny, fuzzy, technologically-unsophisticated hands. Behold Victoria’s [...]
Giveaway: Fringe: The Complete First Season on Blu-ray!
Monday, September 14th, 2009As you can see by the Blu-ray cover art, below, Fringe is a show about faces locked in a deep freeze of suspended animation. But there’s some make-believe “science” and sweet-ass monsters thrown in for good measure. Because frozen faces can’t carry the show, alone. Especially not bearded ones that still reek of Dawson Leery‘s [...]

Geek Loot: Modern Warfare 2 Prestige Edition WITH NIGHT VISION GOGGLES
Wednesday, September 9th, 2009Thus far I’ve resisted the time- and money-suck that is the ownership of a latest-generation video game console. This is in spite of the lure of glorious new game cartridges (they’re still cartridges, right?) like The Beatles: Rock Band. (If I’m coveting a game where you pretend to play in a band of damn long-haired [...]
It’s a Battlestar Galactica Cake. Happy Frakkin’ Birthday. – Geeky Cake of the Week
Tuesday, September 8th, 2009Colonel Tigh on his angriest, drunkest day couldn’t have put it better himself: Here’s a Battlestar Galactica cake. Happy frakkin’ birthday. Laura hired chef Archana Rao at Love Street Cakes (“where cake dreams come true!”*) to craft this BSG cake for the birthday of Laura’s husband, a “big BSG fan” sadly-accustomed to verbal abuse on [...]
Giveaway: X-Men Origins: Wolverine – Two-Disc Special Edition on DVD!
Monday, September 7th, 2009No, I’m not punishing you again. Yes, I realize that those of you who saw X-Men Origins: Wolverine in theaters might have felt like you spent $10.50 on a platter of rotten burger meat with a side of lame sauce. But we all know the pleasures of watching otherwise-blah-some geek fare for free on our [...]
