Triumph of the Nerds Part II
We are revisiting the series triumph of the nerds obviously this time watching the second part and I just have to start saying the same thing I said when we saw for the first time the triumph of the nerd series with the first part, nerds rule and I love that fact that a lot of their success wasn’t completely out of wanting to get rich but doing what they were good at and what the loved.
