Geek of the Week is a prize of extreme status. It is not given weekly nor is it limited to one a week. It is reserved for the person or group of people so dedicated to their mission that they do or say something with such enthusiasm that even people with the same mission notice the hilariousness. Bystanders simply think they are speaking a foreign language or utter nonsense. It is to be reserved for true enthusiasm. It is an award to be highly regarded.

Geek of the Software

Well, my stats professor did it again. He mentioned during class that he has been inside the SPSS* Headquarters in Chicago. He described the inside offices (underground and many stories up) and the proximity to the river and the subsequent massive leaking of said river into said underground offices.

Luckily, we determined that he was there for a conference and not on vacation. THAT would have been almost too much. Almost.....



*SPSS is a statistical software that Quantitative Researchers use to compile and analyze their data. It's full of lots of fun little tricks.
