My very first WoW Wednesday post was about tanking and I’m going to go back to that again. I’ve been tanking more and more and getting much better at it. It’s been very nice, especially, to have some experienced players with me, giving advice during an actual dungeon. And I’ve had some excellent tank moments.…
Hello and welcome to the 2nd entry of Geekboy’s posting on Tuesdays. If you are not used to this by now, I recommend you get used to it. Today I’d like to bring you into my daily life. I think you’ll like it. 0000 – 0559 Sleep0600 – 0610 Shower0611 – 0630 More Sleep0631 –…
I was just reading through the comments on this IHE post about having kids or not in graduate school and one commenter says the following: From my perspective, I find many (not all, not even most) of my female friends and my grad students can’t articulate what they want, what will help them navigate the…
Geeky Boy will once again post something here after school. What do you want to know about from the teenage perspective? Please consider donating to my efforts in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day Walk for the Cure

A couple of days ago, Collin pointed me to Chore Wars, a site that lets you keep track of the things you do around the house. Better yet, it lets you keep track of what your family members do around the house. I set up a party for our family, The Geeky Household, and emailed…
Dear Teachers, I love you, I do. I know you work hard and often work long hours grading, participating in after school activities and more. Your job is difficult. You have to teach kids who are often squirming in their seats, pulling the hair of the girl in front of them, or passing a note…
I have some more serious thoughts in my head about WoW, but they’re not congealed yet, so instead, let’s talk about Halloween. Blizzard has incorporated a variety of events related to seasonal holidays. We actually just had brewfest a couple of weeks ago. I’m now a member of the Brew of the Month club and…
Hello. I think we are all well aware of why we are gathered here today. It is posting time. For those of you who don’t know what posting time is, I recommend you learn immediately. I have received requests of what to post about, but like on facebook, requests are really codes for demands. Oh…
