THE NEW COOL

"To Thine Ownself Be True" is probably the better theme here. Geeks are now in according to this article posted on CNN:

"Maybe it's because young computer gurus are now enjoying the millionaire life. Perhaps it has something to do with the unexpected popularity last year of the movie "Napoleon Dynamite," about a quirky, dancing teen and his sleepy Idaho town.

Whatever the reason, being a nerd, a geek, a dork -- whatever you want to call the tragically unhip -- is becoming a source of pride."

Of course, if the old un-hip are now cool, are the old cool now the new un-hip? Just asking.

P.S. I haven't seen Napoleon Dynamite either.
