It's just what it sounds like, a bunch of geeks get together and have geektastic adventures, play games, write stories, solve improbable problems, juggle various objects including kittens, play impractical jokes, make movies, learn important geeking skills, study why the meaning of life is "42", take vocabulary quizzes, watch movies, create cool stuff, and ocassionally save the world from interstellar threats to the space-time continuum. Most imporatantly it gives us all a place to fit in and spend a Tuesday afternoon. If all this sounds cool to you stop by Mr. Andree's room any Tuesday (be you geek or of the "normal" persuasion). |

Maniac Fights Chicken! Our faculty advisor Mr. Andree wrestles a geek in a chicken suit.
