Writer: Greek Geek
Summer officially begins tomorrow June 21st. The first day of the summer season aka the Summer Solstice (sounds like a pornstar name, right?) is the day of the year when the Sun is farthest north. Well, considering I have been running my air conditioner practically non-stop since Memorial Day, I'd say ole Sol made it north a little sooner than expected. So whichever astronomy asshat determined the first day of this summer should be paying my f**king electrical bill for the rest of the season.
I digress. Since summer "officially" begins tomorrow, I thought it would be a good idea to lay out the top geek home video (DVD/Blu-ray) releases for the season.
