Wondering...

...what marks my nerdiness more in this photo: the Doctor Who action figures or the fact that the Doctor and Captain Jack are standing in front of The Chicago Manual of Style, A Dictionary of Modern American Usage, Understanding UNIX, and UNIX in a Nutshell.

dude. that is righteous!!!

where can i get those figures? *claws at picture*

[gnomi.livejournal.com]

I got them at my local comic shop. They're sold by Character Group (http://www.character-online.com/xq/ASP/ID.385/t.Dr%20Who/x./qx/item_list.htm), apparently.

The action figures. The books just indicate that you write about computers for a living. :)

True enough. :-)

It all goes to show that you are a well rounded eclectic nerd :).

[gnomi.livejournal.com]

Heh. Indeed. :-)

You're an amateur compared to my wife. Get back to me you've arranged the action figures on your desk into a recognizable abstract of the carbon-freezing scene in SW:ESB.

Given the mix of fandoms my action figures represent, it would be quite the abstract rendition. I've got Spike from Buffy, Daniel Jackson from SG-1, Fred from Angel, and Ten and Jack. An odd mix for carbon freezing. :-)

Whatever geekiness they may suggest, I suggest it's canceled out by the fact that they look like they're holding sex toys.

And I just got a mental image of a "sonic screwdriver" that I really didn't need.

And Making Book, which always goes well with the Chicago Manual. I need to do something with my Dr Who action figures -- right now they're just randomly on bookshelves and my remote-controlled K9 is on an end table.
