Two great tastes that taste great together! So, for a while, the Geek Husband What Rules has been going to a local venue where bands play in someone’s living room. Seriously, when he says “House shows” they really are in someone’s house, jam-packed with sweaty punk rockers singing, drinking and dancing. Through this venue and our… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #135 – Nerds and Punk Rock

Now, in my defense it isn’t that I can’t handle crunchy, rules heavy systems, I can. I played, and ran, GURPS for years. For heaven’s sake, I’ve played Rolemaster! I just don’t… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #125 – Sometimes Simpler is Better*
