Found whilst trolling BSG communities. No frickin way could I pass this one up.

To wit: assemble eight things you own signifying your Geekness, take a photo, label, assign points.

I haven't posted video in a while, so I think this week I shall do a video series. The theme is: stuff shot in Austin. Cause I like my city.

This one won't embed, but...
Rock The Casbah- The Clash
One of the first things to ever be shot here, I believe, since the locals thought the band was nuts for wanting to shoot a music video in town. Other than the capitol building, there's absolutely nothing I recognize of Austin in this video. It was a totally different place in 1981.
