I Nerd it through the Grapevine

I suppose the fact that I write my own blog is testament to the fact that I am a geek, which is second-cousin to the mighty nerd, so it was with delight that I stumbled across "Aural Text" on triple R this afternoon (http://www.tripler.org.au), and heard a hilarious interview with the creators of "Nerds Gone Wild!" magazine (http://www.nerdsgonewildmagazine.com).

Now, as any self-respecting person whom grew up in the era of the John Hughes teen flick, I am of course no stranger to, at the very least, the first "Revenge of the Nerds" film. Not that I remember much other than thinking that "Booger" wasn't that nerdish at the time. But then again, that probably says more about me than Booger, but anyways, my point is that Nerds were the anti-heroes of my day. I guess based on that I developed my whole sense of anti-cool, but that's a concept that requires more time & space, so we'll leave that as is. But suffice it to say, I am no stranger to the concept of nerd.

With all of that said, I checked out the "Nerds Gone Wild!" site, and downloaded the four issues available - the magazine is free, so put yourself on their mailing list, and you will have a hot-straight-from-the-oven copy in your inbox immediately upon release, and let's face it, if they're real nerds, that's a promise you know that they'll keep!

Anyways, I'll keep this short, as the magazine speaks for itself, so point your browser to their site, and do what I did - you won't be disappointed!
