The Social Knitworking podcast is live! http://socialknitworking.org

It's an hour of me and my friends talking about nerdy stuff and nerdy knits. The detailed show notes will be up tomorrow if you are interested but would rather skip around to certain parts. I'm particularly fond of the Stick It In Your Queue part that starts around the 33:30 mark (movie clipsand commentary at 43:10).

Also we have a contest to win a knitted doodad. Call us, record a bumper and get a prize - that's it!

I care. They can't hide in knit-wear.

Pensacola is certainly no stranger to occupation. Indeed, the "City of Five Flags" moniker that accompanies the city name is symbolic of the number of sovereign groups that have laid claim to the port city. But in early November, a new force plans a campaign of occupation for the city... And they won't use guns or political tactics; they come armed with algorithms, video games, and microphones. Pensacola is being invaded by nerds! NERD INVASION is coming to the Pensacola Silver Screen Theaters on November 6th!

Words to live by.

Mad Hatter is the head dude at Scrub Club Records. He rocks! And if you click the music link on the site, you get to download a crazy amount of free music.
Nerd Rockstar is Jason of the fabulous t-shirts, patches, and more. He's a crazy cool dude & was kind enough to give me a 6:30am ride to the airport.

Doc Awkward is The Man. His Next Gen ep is brilliant. Go to the Scrub Club site I already linked (Mad Hatter) and download it now.
Bloodclan is the collaborative project of MC Loki and MC Diabeats. These guys are brilliant with white wolf world of darkness inspired rap. Oh, and live, it's sexy as all get out. Check it out here - Amor Sanguinis.
Dual Core - Int Eighty of Dual Core did a set that ROCKED. He's also super sweet, funny as hell, and I got to be in the video for the track Forever off the Next Level cd. I've been playing the whole Next Level cd on repeat all day.
Schaffer the Darklord If I was in highschool and had a locker, the inside would be plastered with pictures of Schaffer with heart stickers and TLF love notes. Yeah, he's my fantasy rockstar boyfriend. He also puts on one hell of a high energy, funny, rockin' show.
