Carl Kasell & Peter Sagal by davekaleta on Flickr.
although the story is bittersweet, it does speak to idea of anticipating the full light & energy of real love, and that is why I thought this might be a good video to share on Imbolc, the second Sabbat of the Wiccan Wheel of the Year - it’s recognizing the seed, knowing if we nurture it just a bit longer, it will grow into something magical - new life, the return of the Sun - it’s Brigid’s holiday - she was the Lightbringer - for me, she is a Goddess of Hope & Faith
the kid in Touch would love JoCo’s song, I think LOL
and this video showing how this bad ass fractal forms is freaking sweet, too :D
Did you feel that? A tremor in the LEGO Star Wars Force? Or was it a RING?
LEGO’s site is sadly lacking on deets, right now, except that these Lordly blocks will be hitting shelves in the Summer of 2012; but io9 supplied a few more bits of tid & some speculated/leaked sets.

The Fifth Star Wars Celebration is happening this weekend right here in Orlando, Florida. It’s convening at the Orange County Civic Center. In GSB’s continuing search for new lifeforms, and new…oh, ummm, wait…channeling the wrong stars…..let me try a new strategy….er, uhhh, star system, that is….. Geek Speak Blog’s Geek Gyrl (that’s me!) will be [...]
Waiting for Superman, filmed by David Guggenheim, reminds us all that we can’t do enough for the next generation – that education is not a privilege, it’s a RIGHT in this country. Too many children in the US are not receiving the basic education anyone should have, much less the sort of education that goes [...]
The first look at SyFy’s forthcoming original movie, Red, starring Felicia Day. Can I get a w00t w00t? In spite of SyFy’s less than stellar reputation, to date, for producing shlock, they’ll have me tuning in just to see a gun-toting, werewolf hunting Felicia Day.
Your favorite chatty geeks (yes, yes I do mean us!) introduce a new regular feature to the site later this month. However, knowing how geeks love their sneak previews, we present to you now, for your entertainment and titillation, a peak at attractions to come here on GSB over the next couple months. New Book [...]
Entertainment Weekly is putting out their annual Comic-Con preview issue and are giving us our first look at Ryan Reynolds in costume from the upcoming Green Lantern film. My first impression: YUCK! I will say that it’s just a photo and that in the movie, with special effects and movement, the costume might work, but [...]
This is one of the most original and incredibly well done – not to mention roll around giggling funny – Star Wars tributes I’ve ever heard. (And yes, I’ve heard a lot of them, don’t ask….) This was performed by Cory Vidal, with 4-part harmony vocals by Moosebutter. If you’d like to make this song [...]
Many people will tell you lightning doesn’t strike twice. The fandom equivalent might be, “you never get to talk to one of your all time favorite genre performers twice (so make it good, if you get the chance.) I was recently presented with the opportunity to do just that, when I interviewed Brad Dourif for [...]
I’ve never been a huge fan of fanfic. I understand the appeal, and I know there IS such a thing as “good fanfic.” (Although, in my experience, you weed through an awful lot of dross before you find the gold. And DAMN, but there are a lot of people that seem to use it as [...]
