What We’ve Been up To
As Marc would say, we’ve “gone dark” this past week. He’s out of the country on, errr, vacation, yeah, that’s it, vacation with this guy:

Meanwhile, a little incident with my face has given me a chance to get back to my religious roots:
We’ll have a new episode up soon with a special guest from GayGamer.net and a quick run-down of our favorite sci-fi shows. In the meantime, here are a couple of things I meant to post recently:
The Hot Geek 10 voting is open for another couple of days. We’ll go over the results in our June 6 episode, so stay tuned. As our regular readers/viewers know, we got picked up by some fanboi sites and got lots of votes for people who are not at the top of our usual lists. Never fear! We’ll break down the numbers before and after the deluge. Most oblivious comment from (I assume) a non-regular:
“Why so few girls? I mean, I know there are usually fewer women than men on any given TV show/movie, but come on. That ratio up there is ridiculous.”
Indeed.
Remember that Murakami exhibit we talked about in Episode 25? I fear lawyers, so I couldn’t show any photos, but now that My Lonesome Cowboy has sold for $15.2 million at auction, it’s not hard to find online. The piece is NSFW, but I clipped a safe screenshot below. [Via NYMag.com]

I was wondering why Supernatural fangirl candy had rocketed above Torchwood’s homegrown super-sub. I’m really interested in the pre-watershed results.

Brilliant!
I think I giggled a bit when I read that comment :)

Curious what you guys thought of the new Indy film. And the eye patch is sexy.

Wow. I was expecting a cast, not an eye patch.
Looking forward to next episode and the poll results pre-invasion… Although, I suppose I can vote now and not feel guilty for being a girl. If I can ever narrow down my list to three any ways. Because, seriously? Only three?

Pirates are hot. Butt Pirates doubly so.

The patch is very dashing. The ARGH just takes it to another level.
>“Why so few girls? I mean, I know there are usually fewer women than men on any given TV show/movie, but come on. That ratio up there is ridiculous.”<
Err. Yeah. Someone didn’t read the words at the top of the screen.
As difficult as it was, I made my hot geek selections.

You had me scared! I read there was an accident, and then no entries for over a week…I thought something awful must have happened. I’m glad you’re okay, even if you are rockin’ that awesome eye patch.

Yay, no more eye-patch! But I still have it in our latest episode. I think that it’s supposed to be posted today, so watch this space.
Thanks for all the votes. I can’t wait to parse this data…

Hi all, I’m back from being out of the country. For the record that photo isn’t from Lucasfilm, it was in fact something living outside my house where I was staying.
