Geek Blog – Still Alive
The ending credits start to roll. You now know the cake is absolutely, a lie. You’ve escaped the Aperture Science labs and outsmarted the sarcastic AI GLaDOS. Then you’re treated to an upbeat song penned by John Coulton: “Still Alive”; you have beaten Valve’s “Portal”, a unique, physics-based game where you can create doorways in walls, ceilings and floors, much like the ACME holes of Saturday Morning Cartoon legend.
Now, for some reason, I can’t stop listening to this song. When it comes up on my playlist, I turn it up. Apparently I’m not alone. Check out the following interpretations/covers of this song, the original and a special bonus after the jump. But first, enjoy this children’s choir rendition, complete with light show!

The little geek in my life is starting to take an active interest in whatever Papa is doing. It just so happened that after we got our Ion Rock Band drum set hooked up that we wanted to play. By “we”, I mean, us three. The little guy wouldn’t sit by and watch, he wanted to be in on the action!!
My wife took this cute photo. Too good not to share.
