The 10 Geekiest Ways to Hide Your Age | GeekDad | Wired.com
Unless you’re Benjamin Button or T.H. White’s Merlin, you’re not getting any younger. While getting older may be better than the alternative, there’s no reason why you have to be completely upfront about your age. And, of course, as long as you’re concealing your age, why not use the opportunity to reinforce your geek cred? 10. Tell the truth … in a geeky invented language.
A couple of months ago The Lady and I came to the realization that we had painted the walls and woodwork in every room in our home except for the master bedroom. Our house was built in the 1970's and this means beige and brown decor. Thus, our bedroom was just about the most depressing of any of the rooms in our home. We set about to remedy this post haste! We began by painting the walls a pleasant sage green and changing the woodwork from a dark brown stained pine to a contrasting French Cream .

“Stop playing with your ring!” This is something you have probably all heard at one time, as you twiddle away with your fingers and annoy the hell out of the people around. Well, those intolerant fools can suck it: the Kinekt Gear Ring is *made* for playing with. The surgical steel circle has two bands running around the outer edges with teeth that engage six tiny cogs that spin between them. These cogs mesh with the teeth and make a finger-band that will be impossible to stop spinning. Want to see a video of it in action?

I have a Fender US Highway One series Stratocaster, which is a half decent guitar, but looks just like a million other Strats. I had been planning to replace the pick guard with a black mother of pearl guard but my experiments in electrolytic etching made me think I'd like to try something a bit more unique. Thus the Steampunk Strat was born. I started by scanning the pick guard and printing out a bunch of copies that I could sketch on until I got the image that I wanted. Next I carefully traced an outline of the pick guard and begun to draw my image.
