I'm a software "guy". And by some definitions that makes me a "geek". And when it comes to cool, inventive and creative things, I really am a software geek. But lately I've become a woodworking geek. Sadly, the term "woodworking geek" suffers from a plethora of problems, not the least of which includes a sort of cognitive dissonance. So I've decided that I'm a "week" (woodworking geek). Is that word horribly overloaded? Yes. Will inventing a term that duplicates one of the most common words in the modern English language doom the term to failure? Without a doubt.
Sigh. I guess I'll abandon my delusions of grandeur and revert to "aspiring wood craftsman" (but "week" is much simpler and catchier... :-) )
