Hank's tour diary from the very quick, three-day tour he took with Harry and the Potters and Potter Puppet Pals. They're still on tour (and will be for a while) without me, and the show is REALLY REALLY GREAT! Tickets are generally $10 and VERY WORTH IT…

In which John discusses his Vidcon experience, thanks his brother, and announces that you (yes, you!) need to read Part I of Ray Bradbury's FAHRENHEIT 451 by next Tuesday to prepare for our discussion in the Nerdfighter Book Club. (if you've read the book before, I encourage you to try reading it again with us!)

Vidcon was amazing. Thanks to everyone who was there,…

In which Hank does not show you lots of clips from VidCon because that would just be mean...also because there's no way he'd have enough time to edit a vlog like that in time to put it online.

Good lord I am tired, but VidCon is awesome, I wish you were all here.

In which Hank gives some stellar productivity tips so that you can use your time more efficiently, be a more effective person and, also, stop having fun!

In which Hank and John answer questions from Table Topics (http://dft.ba/-2JZe) in Seaside Florida. Also, there is a really adorable squirrel. Herein we discuss product placement, Diet Dr. Pepper, time travel, marriage, nerdfighteria, psychics, sentence fragments, parties, and farts.

In which Hank screams his way around the Anaheim Convention Center and then, eventually, all the way home.

So...lots of things in this video:

I guess the post title could be "Honesty" since that title was unnervingly honest ("Honesty? What is this 'honesty' you speak of?" quote the raven of American society...or most society, really).

Original ideas for the title include "YOLO" and "You Only Live Once?"

But before you scramble in the other direction, hear me out. I am typing what I'd like to call an enjoyable (if not completely time-wasting) blog.

If you haven't heard of the acronym YOLO, it stands for "You…

Heres some fun articles I came across today.

Yesterday I was watching Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. It a brilliant movie and I know it’s based off the book but it was still really great. There was a seine were he’s wearing a gas mask and I burst out, "ARE YOU MY MUMMY!?", then I doubled over by the fact of how creepy it was. Besides that it was a really good movie and I recommend it to the few others who stumble upon this post.

In other news I went to Sky high which is a place devoted to everything and anything…

Hey guys!

Tilly and I are watching Sport Relief, and for Easter holiday we thought we would do something like a sponsored run, or swim, or cake sale, or... silence?

Just need some ideas, thanks guys!

Michael Aranda (http://www.youtube.com/michaelaranda) recently moved to Missoula to help with the production of SciShow and Crashcourse.

I was at Target and I saw this Millenium Falcon and I needed it, so we spent like four hours last night constructing it. And then I spent another four hours this morning making this…

So... There were only 8 or so people who even responded to the last blog...

Sooo... If you guys would like to do this try to spread the word.

Because we would need two full teams to even try to do this.

Also... sorry I'm kinda on hiatus so I will be hit and miss.

So as the new Games NingMaster I was poked a bit earlier about a Team Fortress 2 (now to be referred as TF2) get together. 

As a fellow lover of steam I have played TF2 and loved it... No matter who you play or how you play its always a great game. The controls work magnificently and even with it being a FPS they made classes. I mean, come on, who doesn't want to be a sandwich eating, minigun wielding Russian? (Obviously I like The Heavy.) However, there's a class for everyone. You…

In which John talks about the tour de nerdfighting 2012 and how much awesome can be packed into a single auditorium. The awesome song everyone's dancing to is "Shake-a-Booty," off of Hank's great album Ellen Hardcastle: http://dftba.com/product/y1/Ellen-Hardcastle-CD
