In an attempt to not get flagged by every spam filter known to man I decided to call this post “Steamed Sponge Cake Pudding with Raisins” when there is really a better, more accurate, and funnier title out there on the horizon. Let’s just say, that this British sponge cake pudding is now called Spotted Richard by those who don’t wish to offend. That’s right, a chance encounter at a grocery store led me to have in my possession Spotted, cough, cough, “Richard” in a can! Better still, microwaveable! Oh, the wrongness doesn’t end there my friends….

Let’s see, we’ve got 3D printers, Doctor Who, 3D printers, Doctor Who, um Doctor Who, and something else about printing. The only thing missing from January was someone making a 3D print job of Doctor Who! However, there are also secret ice fortresses, the genetics of genius, tiny dioramas of weirdness, and more!

JB Sanders is back with more links to everything geek from December 2010! Enjoy “A Very Zombie Holiday”, 2000 year-old soup, Lovecraft, aliens, Doctor Who, and more!

Buffet readers from last year may remember that around the winter holidays I did “12 Days of Blogging” where I counted down my 12 favorite blogs of the year. With 2010 coming to a close I find myself again wanting to do some sort of fun, end of the year thing, but I feel like doing “12 Days of Blogging” again would be stale. I have instead decided that as a farewell salute to Oprah who is ending her freakishly long running talk show I would do “Rebecca’s Favorite Things”. There will be no cars given away, no iPads tucked under your seat, but there will be links! You’ll get a link! And you’ll get a link! Everybody gets a link!

As most of you probably know, Saturday October 30, 2010 was the Rally To Restore Sanity And/Or Fear hosted by Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert. Unfortunately I was unable to attend (Halloween Eve sessions of “All Flesh Must Be Eaten” don’t come around every day!) so like many people I was watching it Sunday morning thanks to my DVR. Fortunately for me, my good friend Erin Jennes made the trip and with a bribe of dinner out on my part, she was nice enough to share her thoughts and experiences from having been there first hand.

Retro keyboards, Lego, Chewbacca, cheeseburgers dissolving in acid, and more! JB Sanders gives us the rundown on all things geek from August 2010.

Hey Gang! It’s that time again. Where I have all kinds of random things to share so I cram them all into one ill-conceived, but hopefully mildly entertaining, post.

Worst performance ever? You be the judge.

Where I use ground breaking MIT research to put down a television show, to promote a television show, and possibly even offer up some interesting science.

What did I learn from watching the 2010 Grammy Awards show? There’s only one way to find out. Click on in already, there’s even video!
