guess my little gal (age 16) is a 'geek'. all the talk here put me in mind to buy a new jigsaw puzzle. i only got her the 500-piece one...and she stayed up til she finished the first night she got it (yesterday). today, she took part of it apart so she could do it again. right now, she made dad take her to the dollar store to see if they have anything. yesterday's puzzle cost me 10 bucks at walgreen's. i can't spend that each day LOL

Heh, get one of them giant fields of grass puzzles which has all the pieces the same shape. That'll save you some money. Also, for extra points, try assembly picture down.

LOL, on the turned over puzzle! actually, the cheap dollar-store puzzles are tougher than yesterday's more expensive puzzle--all the pieces are cut almost exactly the same and almost fit perfectly everywhere you try them! she got one of sailboats in a harbor--all with the same name painted on their bows and masts which look identical; one of a mill house with a waterwheel and the trees, water and building look almost the same, and one of a snowy mountain against a blue sky reflected in a blue lake. at least these will keep her busy (and frustrated) for a while!

I scored 11%, just under, which cannot be true... maybe I'm not a geek, just a dork! And Midlifer, what's wrong with watching Buffy reruns - I still have to save up for the DVD collection!

23.66. Geek. I was beginning to think I was completely non geek, and then I hit the reading material and the movie section. Since I have read nearly every science fiction author, seen and read all the star trek movies, I was destined to be a geek. MY geekiness definitely is the result of my reading and movie watching habits. I would probably have been higher but I have just not into the role playing games or the cards like Magic Cards. My sons and grandsons are into all that. I am also a total idiot when it comes to math, science, or the tecnical aspects of computers.

10.65089 - Geekish tendencies. I didn't think I had any geekish tendencies. Maybe I should have checked that I wanted to be a wizard.

25.83826 - Total Geek - But I want it known, I teach ancient history, and so SOME geekiness is required by law, or I can't keep my job, and the other thing is, I've been a Tolkien Geek since I was 12, and it's just something you can't get over! :-) I'll admit to being a bit embarrassed by my geekiness. Oh, and I did check that I want to be a wizard, but HEY, I DO!

LOL, I finally sent it to dh, he is a total geek, I made 12% only because I've been with dh for 25 years!! He writes code, he builds computers, and he introduced me to Tolkien in high school, currently he is reading the Hobbit to DD every morning... I can tell you my son can now quote Monty Python...

LOL had no clue that the weather channel food network high tops and Clerks were making me a geek. Mindless trivia I know but the important stuff like how to fix things is completely lost on me. 14.59% wish it was higher and yes I want to be a wizard or a meterologist.
