Google Wave and the Great American Novel

Hey, look! A blog! So, the past few days have been fun. Research: Paranormal is currently on a week-long investigation of the Shanley Hotel in Napanoch, NY. We made our way up on Tuesday, stopping for the night in Gettysburg and meeting one of our fans (that's weird to say, we have fans). The next morning, we toured the Jenny Wade house and stopped by the North Carolina monument on the Gettysburg battlefields. We even broke out some equipment and had an impromptu investigation with the Ghost B… Continue

Tom Recommends... (What do YOU recommend?)

I recently did a video just about me recommending cool things. I'd love to hear what you think about my recommendations as well as your own recommendations. If you want to comment (here or on youtube) or even do a video response, that'd be really cool.

Ningmaster Application

I have not been a nerdfighter for long, but I would love to be a Ningmaster! More specifically, I am applying for Books Ningmaster or ??? Ningmaster. My name is Becca (or Iynq, doesn't matter what you call me) and I am 18 years old. I just started college studying linguistics. I would like to be considered for Books Ningmaster because I love to read and write. Well, not essay writing, but story writing! I also work as a page at my city's library (which is an amazing 100 ft from my house!). I com… Continue

ningmaster application

Dear Tom, I think that I should become a ningmaster because I posses an overall fair judgment. I would like to become a ??? ningmaster. I am always on nerdfighters, and have a great knowledge of the community and it's basic rules. I could also help by watching over new members, for example, we recently had a member who tried to use nerdfighters to advertise "Make money with google" by leaving comments on other nerdfighter's profile pages. He was quickly banned. I would also really like to becom… Continue

Huge Picture Blog!

Hi Nerdfighters!

It's been God-knows-how-many weeks since I blogged, and I don't really have an excuse. I'm just terrible with deadlines, even more when I'm not particularly enjoying stuff. Not to say that I don't enjoy watching pictures and talking about them, because I do. But writing this blog is always a surprising amount of html and copying and pasting picture links and picture locations and D

Alan Lastufka and Tom Milsom are "Taking Leave"

DFTBA Records co-founder Alan Lastufka has a strong draw to music. Whether it be from his early work recorded on mini-cassettes, or his music video work with bands like imadethismistake and solo artists like Charlie McDonnell. So, it's no surprise that his album "Taking Leave", a collaboration with "int

I can haz B-sides nao? (A review of Taking Leave)

Taking Leave cover art
The newest release from DFTBA records A collaborative effort from Alan Lastufka and Tom Milsom, this EP has lovely art to start off with. It adds to the atmosphere of the album, and the minimalistic three colors motif reflects the album's attitude well.
"Which is what?" you ask.
The songs have elements of… Continue

My Continuing Relationship With Graphic Novels and The Like...

So I went to Capes Comics on 63rd & Maple St. in Omaha today to find some comics I had circa Jr. High but had thrown away due to unforeseen circumstances. The dude behind the counter was super nice and did more than his share to help me out. I walked away with: Factor X (first issue of The Age of Apocalypse) X-Men Chronicles (first issue of The Age of Apocalypse) X-Calibre (first issue of The Age of Apocalypse) X-Men Alpha (Feb 1 which met my criteria of having both Blink and Sabertooth on… Continue

Pictures!

So I didn't get round to blogging last week. It was late (GMT+2) and I was going to blog. But then news surfaced that Michael Jackson has suffered a cardiac arrest, followed some time later by the news that he had passed away. The internet came to a halt, sites crashing because of the traffic. It was a weird evening, to say the least. And blogging about pictures just didn't come to mind anymore.
How will the world manage without Michael Jackson? I do… Continue

Who The Eff Is Tom?! (Happy Twenty-Second Birthday)

1) Tom is the peach-flavoured drink sitting next to me. 2) Tom is the feeling of intense panic you experience when you trap a limb in a car door. 3) Tom is a rare type of eye colour, which, when seen, makes you think 'Awesome'. 4) Tom is the religion that teenagers worldwide follow, preventing them from speaking properly. 5) Tom is a mutant form of asparagus, found in your sink every eighty-three days. 6) Tom is the creator of longjohns. 7) Tom is the immensely popular German version of a bikini… Continue

What would you do with a Poe bust? (And other pictures)

Hello, Nerdfighters!

Another week has come and gone. Time really flies. Only two more weeks before I have exams. I'm not sure whether I'll be blogging every week during the exams, but I'm sure I'll manage to blog at least once or twice in those three weeks. Anyway, on with the pictures!

Birthday pictures!

So this blog post will be a bit useless. As I am sure you have all seen, I featured birthday pictures for Hank on Tuesday. Obviously, I'm not going to feature other pictures this week because 1) these pictures are awesome and 2) it's much, much easier for me. :) The pictures speak pretty much for themselves :) (Enjoy the fancy mosaic thingy)

Too Tired To Think of a Title Today...

Hello, Nerdfighters!

It's Thursday again! The end of the school year is approaching. My schedules are messed up and I have loads of work, but tomorrow is Labour Day (which we ironically celebrate by taking the day off) so I found time to feature images this week.
And here they are!

And talking about pictures...

Good evening, Nerdfighters!

Another Thursday has arrived and this week I reached the end of the archives. I found more images than I will feature this week, so I'll have plenty for next week. The week after that will become more difficult.
I'm still a bit sick, but I'm almost done taking antibiotics.
Anyway, on with the show!

Picturific!

Good evening, Nerdfighters!

As, I'm sure, you're all aware, it is Thursday which means I have to blog about pictures. I've been a bit ill lately, but nothing is going to stop me from Ningmaster-blogging. (Not even if I have to do it at 3 am).
A lot of DFTBA visualisations popped up this week after Hank asked for them. I decided that, seeing as Hank was going to use the best ones in his 'project' anyway, I don't really have to feature them.… Continue

BEDA:Fifteen My single serving stupidity is killing the enviornment

I woke up with no voice this morning. Well I couldn't breathe much either both of which were annoying more than likely connected to my icky gross sickness. Today I haven't done much other than hang out and watch Bones. I downloaded Caprica the pilot for the new BSG-verse show that's going to be on Sci-fi this fall... well they say it is but the life of scripted shows for tv is a complicated thing and it could be canned before then. This blog has now been interrupted by dinner which is baby Bru… Continue

Happy Easter!

Greetings fellow Nerdfighters!

Once again it's time for pictures. I'm not sure what happened this week because I spent a couple of days in London with loads of sunshine and little internet, and I'm not completely up to date yet. And this evening, when I remembered that I had to blog, John decided to do a live show. And then when John had finished and I was looking through images, Hank decided to do a live show...
Can't a Ningmaster work in… Continue

DFTBA Pictures (Didn't Forget To Blog About ~)

Hello Nerdfighters!

It's Thursday (yet again!), and a lot happened in the past week. John didn't eat any peeps because his doctor told him not to, Hank dressed as Carrie Bradshaw and watched Sex and the City^* and Secret Sister Maureen Johnson successfully started this thing called… Continue
