Even nerds like to drink sometimes

What exactly is the definition of a nerd? I like spending all day on the web and reading and Star Trek. Does that make me a nerd? Or is that just a cliche and the real meaning of nerd is a lot more complex than that?

It's a question for smart people to mull over, preferably when drunk, and CocktailNerd.com can help you get there. It's a cool blog about the world of cocktails and drinking. It's updated regularly and has a really smart sense of what the good stuff is to link to. It got a bookmark from me instantly.

It also has a "Daily Cocktail" page, but I can't seem to get it to work right now, so let me know exactly what's on that page.

A 'nerd' is someone whose life revolves around technology. A 'geek' is someone whose life revolves around technology and LIKES it that way.

Yeah, I sometimes try to point out the differences, but always get the look of '...what a dork'. ;-)

I'm on their blogroll, so they must be doing something right.
