The Unemployed Geek

I'm not much of a professional critic, nor am I particularly skilled appraiser of the various aspects of tabletop gaming, but I like to think I can recognize a valuable resource when I see it. When such a discovery is made, I verify its authenticity as best I can, and provide it to you, my dear readers. This reliable process has guided me through every post viewed on this space, and has lead to my first advertisement of a foreign, yet truly exceptional tabletop-(amongst other things) oriented blog:

http://gettingmyheadonstraight.blogspot.com/

The titular proprietor of this blog, as evidenced by his wealth of knowledge that spans 100+ posts (and counting), clearly knows what he's talking about. Whether it's a meditation on video games, comic books, convention activities, or good old tabletop gaming, he's sure to offer a clear, concise, and (usually) impartial overview of the subject material within a post of appropriate length. Quite frankly, I can't say much about his work, for it already speaks volumes for itself. However, I will confess, with a measure of stinging pride, that I'm quite envious of the vastness of his 'geek know-how'; a depth of intelligence concerning the various mediums of fantasy/fiction and the industries relevant to their production (someday, I hope to match this impressive amount of experience, but I'm sure that will come, with time).

This impressive mastery of the 'geek' lore, paired with the consistent quality (and quantity) of his posts, sets the stage for quite a shock when one examines the total count of his followers. This passive tally may not mean much to you, but to me, it shows a disturbing lack of recipients for his insightful advice and wisdom concerning subjects often displayed on my blog. So, if you're seeking to expand your understanding of the world of entertainment outside of tabletop gaming, or if you simply wish to refine certain skills within said niche, I urge you to subscribe to his publications. If it's not too much of a bother, I'm sure a little more exposure for him wouldn't hurt, either.


Thank you, for your time and attention.
