It's quite possible I look forward to Thursdays more than any other day of the work week. I know it's bordering on blaspheme in our TGIF culture, but if you saw my Friday workload, it would make you wimper for Sweet Jesus to come and take you now, regardless of your normal religious persuasion.

Thursdays, though, Thursdays I crave. Work's not too crazy, I'm a day away from casual Friday which means I think about how much life would be better if I could wear jeans all the time, but best of all, it's Thursday Night Green Chile Cheeseburgers and Mythbusting Club.

It's a deceptively simple concept: bring home two green chile cheeseburgers. Watch two Mythbusters episodes the Tivo recorded the night before. Embrace inner geek. Repeat weekly.

I love it, because it's when the nerds come shining through, and I'm awfully fond of the nerds. Like last night's steam cannon? Adam's jaw swung off its hinge. "I can't believe they're going to try that. It's not gonna work. It's not gonna work! It's not gonna -- "

"DUDE!"

We tend to "dude!" in unison a lot on Thursdays. The back button gets pressed repeatedly and we bounce around and then one of us says, "But wait! They should have -- " because let's face it about our inner nerds: they have mile-wide pedantic streaks. Can't be nerdy without that. And then we go back to the episode for the inevitible pretty, pretty explosion that we watch at least a dozen times.

And there are cheeseburgers. With green chile. Did I mention that part?

It's something Adam and I have admitted to looking forward to every week. And a look ahead on the schedule shows in two weeks, they're going to take on Diet Coke and Mentos and I can't wait for the Warning: Science Content portion.

And the pretty, pretty explosions.

Bunny feels the same way.
