AiYume's geek zodiac sign:


The Scientist
October 16 00:00:00 to November 20 23:59:59

The Scientist could be confused for the Specialist or the Hacker if it wasn't for the broad knowledge or the methodical way he investigates new knowledges. Where the Engineer applies learned knowledge, the Scientist is there discovering the facts that no one else knows. The development, testing and disproving of theories runs all through the Scientists life, and even his friendship and other relationships may go through the same stages...often making it difficult to interact with this geek zodiac sign.

Email Joke

A man called home to his wife and said, "Honey I have been asked to go fishing up in Canada with my boss and several of his friends.We'll be gone for a week. This is a good opportunity for me to get that promotion I've been wanting, so could you please pack enough clothes for a week and set out my rod and fishing box?

We're leaving from the office and I will swing by the house to pick my things up"

"Oh! Please pack my new blue silk pajamas."

The wife thinks this sounds a bit fishy but being the good wife she
is,did exactly what her husband asked .

The following weekend he came home, a little tired but otherwise looking
good.

The wife welcomed him home and asked if he caught many fish? He said,

"Yes! Lots of Salmon, some Bluegill, and a few Swordfish. But why didn't
you pack my new blue silk pajamas like I asked you to do?"You'll love the answer...

The wife replied,

"I did. They're in your fishing box.....

The Webmaster
February 6 00:00:00 to March 13 23:59:59

The Webmaster is the member of the geek zodiac with the most interaction with the non-technical people in society and so either becomes the most socially capable or the person with the greatest disdain for non-geeks. Other geeks may not consider the Webmaster a geek at all, but those geeks don't understand the intricacies of cross-browser development and failures to maintain strict standard conformity.

I Would Be Tempted To Get This

TV's first feminist debuts on DVD

Before "Roseanne," "Kate and Allie" and "One Day at a Time" became hits featuring strong women and frequently mature themes, there was "Maude," the groundbreaking, six-season CBS comedy featuring Bea Arthur.

Big, brassy and pushing 50 at the time, Arthur concedes she was an atypical TV star. The Broadway veteran was tapped for her own series after a stint on "All in the Family" as Maude Findlay, the liberal nemesis and sister-in-law of arch-conservative Archie Bunker. That prompted series creator Norman Lear to create a spinoff based on an upper-middle-class New York feminist on her fourth marriage.

"She was not your average, beautiful heroine, but I felt like Cinderella," says Arthur, now 83. "It was one of the first times on television that a woman was seen as the head of the family instead of the usual fumbling male."

Nearly 35 years after its debut in fall 1972, viewers may find "Maude: The Complete First Season" (Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, $29.95) tame. But at the time, Maude's story lines on alcoholism, menopause, women's lib, nervous breakdowns and hemorrhoids were considered so controversial that some network affiliates refused to air episodes -- such as a two-parter on Maude's abortion.

"I liked the fact that we touched on just about everything untouchable," says Arthur, whose last TV appearance was as Larry David's surly mom on HBO's "Curb Your Enthusiasm." "It was so very different and not what people expected."

"Maude: The Complete First Season" is due March 20.
