The Dork Report for April 5, 2006
- A question most appropriate to this blog: How geeky are you? (guest submission from Andrea)
- A pair of Doctor Who treats to kick off today’s Report:
- The BBC are being surprisingly generous in broadcasting Tardisodes free online.
- Who is Doctor Who?, Mickey’s video blog (if you can parse the accent).
- Extra-strength tryptophan was clearly not enough to defeat Hagryphus giganteus’s predators. (guest submission from Andrea)
- “cork and work” and… dork? Absurdities of English Spelling (guest submission from Dave)
- Bjorn Tipling’s Color Tool (guest submission from Dave)
- The Apple fan/apologist’s ultimate hell freezes over scenario. But maybe it’s time to share the pain.
- You don’t say! Gosh, this really shakes my faith in our president. Cough, cough.
- I’m a latecomer to this already-famous treasure: Overheard in New York. Harvey Pekar has written a graphic novel biography of the founder.
- Wired counts seven sci-fi concept albums. Only seven? I nominate The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway (more surreal fantasy than sci-fi, perhaps?) and Tales from Topographic Oceans (too sucky?). The latter clocks in at no. 4 in the Ten Scariest Concept Albums of All Time.
