(Life of an Accounting Droid) Unofficial and Indirect Android Star Wars Theme

With all the Star Wars talk this week, I wanted to setup my Android device to better show off my fandom. It started quite simply with the picture for the First Order Loyalists which I saw on the Star Wars Google+ page. When I set it as my wallpaper, my color theme automatically adjusted to match the wallpaper (a nifty feature of Action Launcher v3 which I had forgotten I had enabled). I mention version 3 specifically because it is the version that applies a Material Design theme to your homescreen based on the colors in the wallpaper. From here, it was a matter of finding a good color for my weather widget which I settled for with black since my app drawer, folder backgrounds, and notification shade didn't incorporate it. Finally, it was a matter of finding a good icon pack to match the wallpaper. While poking around Google Play and Google+, I came back to an icon pack I hadn't used for some time which nicely (at least to my amateur eyes) match the look and feel of the wallpaper.

Links are included below for all or parts of whatever you want to apply. Also, feel free to reach out to me via e-mail or Twitter if you have questions about Action Launcher and its features.

(How It Stacks) How It Stacks #46: Jim Varney (Ernest P Worrell)

Scared Stupid.jpg

Im just going to get right to it

Ernest, the magical Jim Varney character that has impacted so many lives, is our topic on this newest of episodes. The guys go into full nostalgia mode when this one kicks off. Its the first topic in a while where all of the terrific three remember it. The Professor fights back tears of joy as he remembers the legend that is Jim Varney and demands his birthday be a holiday. JD admits that a lot of his comedic inspiration came from Ernest. Bulldog remembers it well and almost earns a face punch from The Professor.

Go grab some MIAK, sit back, and enjoy this one: it's a doozy!

(The Geek I/O Show) The Geek I/O Show: Episode 116: "Sucking the Presidents Duck"

This week on The Geek I/O Show, its CJs birthday and the man wanted to play Cards Against Humanity.  So, we grabbed our evening clutch and played some Cards Against Humanity.  Things got very inappropriate very quickly.

Its the raise of Mexicos.  Nothing can stop the friction pair.  Darrell is sleep deprived.  Dale does reading.  Jaz fumbles over swear words.  Raul constantly sneaks the win.  Budlong returns in a lesser shade of salmon. Rachel loves innuendo, and CJ always chooses the biggest, blackest dick.  The gays like us too much.  It hurts.
