LOL. Should be the Geek Anthem. Very well written. “I was first in line to buy Halo 3/On Friday nights I play D&D.”

Geek Blog – Symphony of Science 5
The Symphony of Science is a musical project headed by John Boswell designed to deliver scientific knowledge and philosophy in musical form.
The project owes its existence in large measure to the wonderful work of Carl Sagan, Ann Druyan, and Steve Soter, of Druyan-Sagan Associates, and their production of the classic PBS Series Cosmos, as well as all the other featured figures and visuals.

Geek Blog – TMBG New Music Video
BoingBoing debuted yesterday a new educational music video by my favorite band in the whole world, They Might Be Giants. Titled “Meet the Elements”, the video is a tribute the the periodic table and how elements combine to make everyday items, elephants and us!
TMBG have been orienting their music around educational topics for as long as I can remember. Hits that top my favorites list are (with video after the break):
Why does the sun shine? (The sun is a mass of incandescent gas, a gigantic nuclear furnace…)
Mammal
James K. Polk (Our 11th president!)
Dinner Bell
There’s Only One Everything (there’s only 1)
and many others!
