    See you space cowboyHey there all you Geekkateers. I have an announcement I need to make. I have decided to take a break from The Weekly Geek. I won't bore you with all the details, but it was a little of this and little of that that added up to me wanting to just get away from it all for a while. Now, I can't say for sure if it's temporary or permanent. I don't know that right now. I think there's probably a good chance that I am going to miss all the fun stuff that being a part of The Weekly Geek brings, but I need to step away from the work of it all to focus on other general life things at the moment.

    It's been wonderful having the opportunity to invade your iPods and Windows Media Players and other such listening devices week in and week out. It's been great to sit around and talk about video games and stuff and actually have people think it's fun to hear. I thank you all for listening, whether you've been around since we started uploading our radio broadcasts back at CWU, or if you've only recently found us.

    I won't be totally gone, though. I've got a few YPS posts pre-written and loaded in the hopper that you'll see over the next couple weeks. And I'll still hang about in our rad forums with our awesome little community.

    Thanks again everyone. Please keep visiting the site and listening to the show as there are exciting things lined up for the future of The Weekly Geek.

    See you space cowboy...

    Don't drive like my brother.

    Good night, and good luck.

    And that's the way it is

    -Gabe out

    Kay Ee Why...Why? Because we like you

    I'm Kevin Nealon and that's news to me.

    Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars

    Say goodnight, Gracie.

    And now you know the rest of the story.

    Keep circulating the tapes.

    Man. That broke my heart when I heard it on the show. It's perfectly understandable, but still - we'll miss you terribly.
