Stinging from the implication that I may be some type of computer nerd, I ditched my pedestrian family sedan and splurged on a hairy-chested sports car:

Don't worry about me.

I keep a yellow Maverick and a '71 Plymouth Valiant, Signet trim level in case the LTD doesn't start.

My nerd score is 48, lightly nerdy.

51% scored higher (more nerdy),
1% scored the same, and
48% scored lower (less nerdy).

I refuse to take a test, I know I'm nerdy and I hang out in Mercedesshop because my car spends more time

1) undriveable in Atlanta w/o AC

2) in the shop having something else fixed before I can get to the parts I want to get fixed, like the AC.

But I'm really a nerd because I just timed rereading a William Gibson book so I'd be done so I could start the new Harry Potter book tonight.

And I can't drive my car, cause its in the shop...
