You Know You're a Geek When....

Stella recently took her kids on a field trip to NASA (I was envious). I love NASA and some of my best childhood memories were of field trips with my Civil Air Patrol Troop to Johnson Space Center!

The following is a cell phone text exchange that took place between the two of us Wednesday, 11, November 2009...The names have not been changed to protect the innocent. :-D

I received an image similar to this pic:













Stella: Do you remember this?
Kevin: Ah yes, the Atlas Rocket I knew it well. Used to be outside though.

[Went to a meeting at work, and realized on the way back that I had committed an error in fact]

Kevin: Or is that the Saturn V?
Stella: Yes, I didn't want to correct you. [So Sweet]
Kevin: Atlas was for Mecury, Saturn was for Apollo Lunar Missions:-) I'm geeking hard!
Stella: Yes UR!
Kevin: I was walking back 2 my desk when I realized my error. I didn't even google it:-)
Stella: Geek
[end transcript.]

Yes, yes I am. :-}

The Name Change

You may have noticed the name change...Stella's sister made the statement, after some oddball geekiness between the two of us, that we should just call it "Two Geeks on a Bike".

Well it all boils down to the essence of Kevin and Stella...after all, we are just "Two Geeks on a Bike."

Aye...Aye! Captain


Congratulations! to our friend Chris Larsen for passing his Master's 100 Ton Near Coastal US Coast Guard test! This means that Chris is a bonafide Sea Captain and can assume the helm of a vessel with up to 320 souls!

Again, Congratulations from Kevin and Stella!
