Attention All Geeks! Use Geek Alerts for All Your Geeky Needs

Hey there friends.  I'm a geek at heart.  I love all things tech, I'm the "computer guy" of the family, I play video games, and I love geeky movies like the Cube series.  So when I stumbled across Geek Alerts, I knew I found a new home to satisfy my taste for all things geek.

Hebrew is Read from Right to Left

A team of archeologist are excavating in Israel when they stumble across a cave with the symbols of a woman, a donkey, a shovel, a fish, and the Star of David on a wall.

The head archeologist looks hard at the drawings and proclaims that he has figured out the meaning. He points to the first drawing and says, "The woman indicates that these people were family oriented and held women in high esteem. The second drawing, the donkey, indicates that these people were smart enough to use animals to till the soil. The shovel indicates that they were able to forge tools. The fish indicates that they were great fisherman. The last symbol, the Star of David, indicates that it was the Hebrew that left us this message to decypher.

All the archeologists nodded their head in agreement, except for one. He raised his hand and said, "Sorry to correct you, sir. But Hebrew is read from right to left. This actually says, "Holy Mackerel! Dig the Ass on that Chick!"

That Sick Bastard

I sure hope I never have to endure such torture!

A Review of www.branders.com

Hey there. This year has been a banner year for www.metallman.com.  Income is up, promotional opportunities are up, readership is up, and pageviews are up.  Everything is pointing in the right direction!  So I've been thinking of small ways to keep the readers engaged and coming back and I think that a few promo items would be good.  I've expressed interest before in branching out and getting some promotional items for the site. Nothing too fancy and nothing too pricy. Just a little something that I can give away to my readers, friends and family. I decided to start off small and then see where that takes me.

The Local Baseball Team DTK (Down to Strikeout)

Hey there.  So it's happening...  I'm on a local baseball team.  I'm still not 100% how it happened but I'm glad it did.  I've been feeling a little slow lately since I really haven't been exercising much, but since I've committed to the team, I've picked it up a bit.  I've been hitting the batting cages with my son and bro, working on that eye hand coordination, and even tossed a ball a bit to work on glove mechanics (or whatever the baseball lingo is).
