Natalie Portman: Ai Carumba
--no brainer
Both white and dark meat
--It really depends on how well the turkey was prepared. Most of the time the white meat is dry so I prefer the dark meat, otherwise white meat is good too

Christmas. With proper vacation planning around that and New Year's, there's more time off work for free.
Geek.
Natalie Portman: Don't have a cow, man. She's attractive, but not as much as the /. crowd makes her out to be.
White meat. Mmmm. As long as it doesn't get overcooked.

Better Holiday:Thanksgiving or Christmas? christmas. even apart from religious significance, christmas has more traditions for my family. we dig both hollidays, but christmas trumps the all others. it's also nice that the christmas shopping season is over at christmas instead of just gearing up, so there is more relaxation. my parents have the big turkey dinner for both days, so thanksgiving doesn't have much extra to offer over christmas for me.
You are a Geek or a Nerd? i am probably a geek. i can interact with people somewhat. though i do consider myself nerdy in many ways. i am beneath geek.
Natalie Portman: (sorry ladies) Ai Carumba or Don't have a cow, man? she is very easy to look at. i don't have a shrine or anything, but i look. "look but don't touch" is the rule now that i am getting married. but i had better not look too much. my betrothed is 5'11" and is no force to be trifled with
White meat or Dark? white meat all they way. when i was a kid it was dark meat because my family hadn't discovered the cooking bag yet. the white meat would be a little dry. using the cooking bag keeps it all good and juicy.

Geek- not computer, but geek nonetheless. I'm going to have to agree with others here and say that nerd just sounds pathetic.
Ai Carumba- In my opinion, Natalie Portman is quite cute.

No Thanksgiving here in the UK, so just Xmas for moi. And just the pagan feasting and merriment, hold the christianity (and the crass commercialism).
You are a Geek or a Nerd?
Definitely a Geek - unless, that is, your butt needs saving, in which case make that 'Guru'
Natalie Portman: (sorry ladies) Ai Carumba or Don't have a cow, man?
Not being a Star Wars freak, I have to say (Mark&Lard-style) "Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo???!!!"
White meat or Dark?
Both, with cranberry sauce. And I take yours off you, if you're too full...

You are a Geek or a Nerd? I'm in my 40's so that makes me a nerd (proto-geek). Please note that the Geek is a derivative of the nerd. In a class hierarchy the nerd is the super class and the geek inherits the attributes and methods of the nerd and also has a few that the nerd doesn't have like political awareness.
Ai Carumba or Don't have a cow, man? Don't have a cow man (but I really don't have a preference on this one)
White meat or Dark? White meat. Nice breast meat, but a leg or a thiegh is good now and then (yes I am talking about chicken).

My two thanksgivings split the non-christmas vote. Causing christmas to win by a landslide.
You are a Geek or a Nerd?
Geeks because i have the shirt and the term is also much more versatile. Movie-geek, music-geek, etc.
Natalie Portman: (sorry ladies) Ai Carumba or Don't have a cow, man?
I wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers if that's what you meant.
White meat or Dark?
Dark preferably in drumstick format.

I tell everyone I'm a geek. A nerd, in my mind, has less social skills. Not that I'm the guy w/the lampshade on my head at a party, but I can usually talk about things besides computers. I know people who can't.
Natalie Portman calls for Ai, Carumba! from me. That smile just...sigh. And she's a good actress too; I really liked Beautiful Girls [imdb.com], though not just for her role. Just ignore Rosie O'Donnell's rants (she's good, but it feels like the writers just took the first "Men are so stupid! Ha ha ha!" stand-up bit they could find and slapped it in) and enjoy the show.
I prefer dark meat; it's moister. Mmmmm.
(Again with the OT: cooked some chicken a while back and found out how easy it is to make gravy: take the juice, dump in some flour, stir. But the real revelation: make it spicy. Throw in fresh pepper 'til your eyes water, and by gosh and by gum is it good. I can't be the only one who's discovered this, so why haven't I heard of this before?)

Though not winning out by much.
Geek.
Like others have said, with geek you can throw many more descriptors in front of it than you would nerd. Though I am also partial to dork.
Natalie Portman.
I must admit, she is a cutie, though a petite one at that. She is such a tiny thing, how tall is she anyways?
White meat.
The better to make turkey sandwiches with.

Nerd (I was a nerd back before being a geek was cool.)
Ay Carumba. But her best acting job was in 'Leon'.
Dark when anyone but me cooks it. (Which is my official answer). White when I cook it, because everyone else dries it up like the Iraqi desert.
