• About the Author

    Great Big Nerd is, as you might expect, a great big nerd, who loves science fiction and fantasy literature and movies, comic books, role playing games, animation, classic illustration and comic strip art, magic (not "The Gathering"), and plenty of other nerdy crap besides, all of which he writes about. He occasionally (or frequently) writes about politics, against his better judgment. Great Big Nerd lives in Denver with his lovely wife and two cats, where he studies art and graphic design at Metropolitan State College of Denver.

The Late Saddam Hussein, Evil Dictator who possessed no WMD and had no connection to al Qaeda, not that that really makes him any less of a rat bastard, I’m just sayin’ (Would have been 72 years old)

(Yes, this post is essentially an excuse to post a picture of Jessica Alba on my blog. You got a problem with that?)
