Jimmy Fallon or Ashton Kutcher? Who’s the bigger nerd? Who owns the most gadgets? With the explosion of Twitter and gadgets, these two stand out, and I’ve been trying to figure out which one deserves the title - King of Celebrity Nerds.

I’ve been staying up late to watch Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. It took some time to get used to Jimmy Fallon. In the beginning he always seemed nervous and uncomfortable but he had gadgets on his show and that kept me around for some time before his material and guests started getting better.

Tesla turned a profit! Celebrate! -

I can’t be the only one that thought Tesla was going to be a money pit. I foresaw greed, mismanagement, delays, so on and etc, but they seem to have delivered and are now on their way to full-fledged “successful business” status. A million dollars’ profit on 20 million in business is small potatoes in the car industry, of course, but the other guys in the game are all wallowing in debt, so anything less than total self-annihilation would have put Tesla ahead of them…CrunchGear
