Any other geeks in here?

I'm a total geek. Total. I love science fiction and fantasy. I grew up on Star Trek, Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica. I read Starlog magazine religiously along with various sci-fi/fantasy novels. And I read comic books wishing I could have powers to be a super hero too. I played with my action figures and toys until I was 13.

I was beat up a lot in school - all schools from grade school to highschool. Hell I got beat up just about everywhere I went.

I never played any sports because I can't throw, catch or run very goos at all. I graduated highschool weighing in at 120 lbs and just shy of 5'9".

Although I took a lot of karate as a kid I still got beat up. Size does matter when you hit like a fly so I never got the confidence they claimed I would.

I didn't start lifting weights until I was 19. It was mainly the comic books and Conan novels that inspired me to start lifting. I finally said to myself, if I want to be like these guys why don't I stop wishing and start doing something about it? So I did. I took my scrawny ass into a hardcore bodybuilding gym, Spectrum Health & Fitness located in Riverside, California and signed up.

Later I built up some size, started winning fights(never started any fight - that's my #1 rule) and started building confidence. Later I discovered MMA and took it on as a hobby.

I'm still a total geek.

Anyone else here a total geek or am I the only the one?

No your not the only one. I used to get beat up a lot until my dad started showing me how to wrestle. I'm not talking WWF. He was a 2 time college champ. Once everyone started seing me throw bigger guys around suddenly no one picked on me anymore.

Power to the geeks. Remember.. there is more of us than there is of them.

If being a geek is someone who started on computers when he was 10 in 1980, and now does it for a business, then yup, I'm in. :D
