Although it may be hard for some people to believe, when I was younger I was a little bit nerdy - geeky, if you will. I look back on some episodes in my life with a certain level of embarrassment and, in some cases, I find I have blanked them out completely. (Fellow experiencers of geeky episodes may find solice here. And everyone else can laugh at their patheticism.)
During a rambling conversation whilst on a recent trip to Cambridge with Helen (my wife) to visit our friend Catherine, a long forgotten memory concerning public renditions of (very) dubious 90's dance tunes was uncovered. Painful. Even those who know me best know only the tip of the proverbial iceberg, and that's the way it must remain.
Over the past decade, that side of me has been surpressed and today I try to keep my nerding to a minimum. However, a lapse a few years ago did result in an X-factor style competition involving a number of daily cartoon strips. I'm not proud of it, and there is no way I will divulge the details - let's just say Excel was involved.
As a result of this procrastination, I ended up with a number of cartoons that I follow daily. From these I have chosen some of my favorites to kind of get a "Cartoon of the Week", which I will try to update regularly. The first is in the following post.
Now let us never speak of the geeking again...
