  • A geek in a small town: Mt. Vernon USA

    —

    in

    Okay, so its time for a little rant I suppose.  I live in Mt. Vernon, Kentucky.  Most people that come to this blog probably don’t even know where that is, or when they read Kentucky, they develop their own opinions rather quickly.  Well the fact is, its a rather small town, not exactly in the…

  • What makes a hero?

    in

    Okay, up front I’ll say this isn’t a serious, in depth post about the the type of people we consider to be heroes or what we should strive for as individuals or anything like that.  Yes, that could be a discussion that could go forever, including the resent happenings with Lebron James, because in some…

  • Back to designing (somewhat)

    in

    After taking a break from designing anything really for a month or so, I’ve knocked out two in the past few days.  One is off a whim and is a new avatar for myself, which is also being used above in the the header for this blog.  Feel free to give me input.  Once the…

  • Store on Zazzle

    in

    US8YNS9Y5N2D After some people have shown interest in a few of my designs, and if/where they could get them on a shirt, hat, etc I’ve decided to setup a little “shop” on Zazzle.com.  So here is my one shameful plug for my slowly developing page with the banner that you can click below.  I’m slowing…

  • 2010 Topps 1962 Mickey Mantle Reprint Relic

    —

    in

    Back in the days of elementary and middle school, I used to collect baseball cards.  It was the big thing where you would take some to school and trade, or meet up with cousins and friends to trade or see who has what.  It wasn’t for monetary gain, you didn’t necessarily care about the condition…

  • We’re moving! (Sort of)

    —

    in

    I originally created this site/blog as a hub for all things related to me, but in the expansion of my graphic designing, I’m moving everything PCS related over to the new Parsons Creative Solutions site http://www.parsonscs.net while also redesigning and restructuring Geekasms.com to be more “Tech/Geek Dad” related along with a personal perspective of things. …

  • Ballard Parsons

    in

    This was written by my uncle John and originally published in the June 10th, 2010 edition of the Mt. Vernon Signal.  As it covers a subject I have previously wrote about, I wanted to post it here because I feel the two compliment each other, showing how Ballard touch multiple generations the same way, showing…

  • Rockcastle County Vector

    —

    in

    One of the jobs I’ve recently had involved putting together some images for a presentation that was given during a Chamber of Commerce meeting where debates for some of the local positions up for election were held.  In my search, I failed to ever find a clean vector, or even just a clean clipart image…

  • A refresh and a refocus…

    in

    Well, as is proof from that lack of updates and posts recently, I’ve been a busy guy, balancing time with work, starting to put plans together for Abby’s 1st birthday (next week) and trying to grab a hold of as much freelance graphic work as I can, local or not.  Fortunately for me, I have…
