Seattle Geek Shootout is a safe, non-partisan, and fun environment to practice your aim (or try for the very first time) with other Puget Sound people involved in startups and technology.

GunUp.com is kindly sponsoring this event by covering lanes fees for the first 30 participants to show up at the range. You can bring your own guns & ammo or rent there ($15) and purchase ammo.

Afterwards we will likely meet up at a nearby watering hole.

Please feel free to invite friends of similar caliber (pun intended). :-) Add yourself to the “Seattle Geek Shootout” group on Facebook to receive invitations to future events.

Special thanks to Beth Goza, Karen Clark, and Alexis Hebert for being such great co-panelists; and to Harmony for recording this.

First, some epic nerd awesomeness:

This one isn’t my style musically, but the content is kind of cute/funny:

Semi-resembling Gorillaz nifty style:

Fire Ze Missles! New Releases!

HOLY CHEESESTEAKS, BRUCE WILLIS IS IN THE LATEST GORILLAZ VIDEO! Embedding is not allowed, so go watch it here. Actually, the entire new Gorillaz album, Plastic Beach, comes out tomorrow, and is a great listen. Cameos by Snoop Dogg were a bit weird, but they actually fit.

And speaking of releases tomorrow, checkout Broken Bells. As if you haven’t already. Broken Bells is Danger Mouse plus James Mercer, best known for The Shins, and for being my favourite male singer. Well, at least tied with Ben Gibbard (Death Cab for Cutie / The Postal Service).

Listen to Broken Bell’s single, “The High Road” below, over and over and over again.

In Closing…

I love sharing music. Let me know if you enjoyed this post. :-)

P.S. There’s a great interview here about the making of this video.

Suffice to say, Mindcamp 6.0 was really fun. :-) Seattle is the best.
