Geek Blog – What Teachers Make
Posted by Snowy in Geek Blog, GeekWife Blog, Poetry, Video on October 21st, 2011
GeekWife is wrapping up her “Week alone with the class” portion of her student teaching. I’m very proud of her; she’s only told me of a couple of students who ended up crying. All kidding aside, she puts in a lot of work in the off hours to finish her college education and earn her teaching certificate and I’m frankly amazed at her perseverance. A co-worker sent me a link to this video and I thought it would be great to share. You might recognize him from his performance of “Speak with Authority.”
Taylor Mali has many great poetic performances and would have been my favorite English Teacher!
To the GeekWife: I love you, you’re doing great!

GeekWife’s Blog – My Favorite Game of All Time: Tetris
Posted by GeekWife in Games, GeekWife Blog on January 30th, 2010
This being my first-ever post as the GeekWife I figured I would start with an old passion and pastime of mine: Tetris. I can’t tell you whether it was the NES or the GameBoy that introduced me to this classic but I can tell you that I dedicated many hours of my life to mastering this game.
While Stumbling yesterday, I came across this Tetris/Mario Bros mash-up:
The tricky part of this game at first was figuring out the controls (mainly jump, which is ’s’ and ‘x’) seconded by having to avoid becoming Goomba food at the end.
After spending some time and frustration on that game, and at the recommendation of SnowytheGeek himself, I was introduced to this gem:
All I can say is “wow”.
Enjoy the games!
