Following a blog, never miss another post!

****Before you all dig into the post, I want to give you a heads up that something new and exciting will be coming to A Bit of Geek next Thursday! Be sure to read this entry to make sure you don't miss what's coming!**** Hiya everyone. This week's post will be unlike any that I've presented before. I'm taking a one-time (well, most likely it's a one-time) break from my normal posting to give a little tutorial on how to follow a blog! I figured...

Real life versus Fallout: What would I do?

Many thoughts go through my head as I traverse the Wasteland. "Is that a yao guai?" "Everyone is so rude." "Raiders pick fights then run away. Why?" "Oooh, another lunchbox!" I am developing quite the collection. I have yet to master getting them to sit nicely on the shelf though... And so many more along those lines. However, the most consistent thought that runs through my head is, "What would I actually do?" I'm going to be optimistic...

The parabeetles and scorpions are trying to kill me.

Where do I even start?! Nintendo held a press conference the other day, which I missed because I forgot about it.

--This is part two of a long post regarding my amazing time at PAX 2011! Be sure to read part one for full coverage!-- So I believe that yesterday I promised full coverage of my Wil Wheaton encounter plus Link cosplay photos. Prepare yourself!

PAX 2011: Best ever? part 1

--This has been split into two parts for its ridiculously long length. Part 2 will go up tomorrow :)-- It's certainly a bold proclamation. I have attended seven of the eight PAX shows (not including PAX East, which has been going for two years), and each has contained something truly wonderful. For a week now, even before the PAX weekend began, I have wondered what this blog entry would contain. Would it be long, or short? Would I have had such...
