I'd say Snuffles has some serious anger management issues .

Yeah, I'm with you, Deej. The geek-o-meter says I can take 16. I think that's unduly optimistic. My son is five, and there's no way in a snowball's chance that I could take 16 of him. Of course, I have been training him myself for four and a half years...

I can apparently take 23...

Um, that was a little embarrassing. Good thing my CCD class doesn't have access to that kind of sensitive info. But at the end of the quiz, there's a link to a Geek Quiz where I did MUCH better.....

OF course, I immediately started thinking of good questions for a Catholic Geek Quiz, but it's probably better not to go there...might steal Fr. Erik's schtick and get banned.

I think the Catholic geek level in Fr. Erik's parish is reaching the level of critical mass, too. After all, I go there.

In fact, I think we need to institute a special Critical Geek Mass....

I guess I fall into that category too as an engineer...although I DO try to dress a bit stylishly, attend concerts, plays and the opera (on my birthday), and enjoy the pursuit of education. And I DID find "The Engineers Guide to Cats" on YouTube an absolute riot..I only wish I could make my presentations at work as humorous and entertaining...

Disclaimer...I'm not a TOTAL Geek....I DO have a motorcycle (shiny, red and FAST!!) and NEVER pass up an opportunity to say Good Morning to a handsome guy...

More signs of my own personal geek-majesty:

I was in Sears the other night, shopping for a new pair of dress shoes and ogling the barbeques, when I came upon a tie that is a dead ringer for my old school tie from grammar school days. So, 10 points for recognizing the tie as a St Bon's tie; 25 points for wanting it and buying it; bonus 8 points for buying it on sale; 5 points for telling the apparently 12-year-old sales clerk that I was buying it because it is my old school tie; and 50 points for knowing how to describe it:

Bendy, azure and or. (NOT, as the Philistines would say, diagonal blue and gold stripe.)

98 geek points for me, and I'm wearing the tie as I type this! So there!
