Freaks and Geeks
Monday, March 5th, 2007I just watched the first and only season of Freaks and Geeks. This show is the type of embarrassing funny. It sometimes makes you wince. It also has an amazing soundtrack from the period (early 80s) and before. The Who, the Grateful Dead, Kansas and tons of others.
SkierX
Tuesday, January 2nd, 2007Hi, I’m SkierX, also known as Josh King. I’ve been using this alias online for about a decade now. The name initially was a derivative of RacerX from Speed Racer. I was into skiing, so I adopted SkierX. The first place I used it was an online game called SubSpace. I think ex-skier would be more appropriate now because I rarely get to go skiing anymore. For as long as I’ve been using this name, people have been mispronouncing it as sky-er instead of skee-er.
