The Calgary Corporate Challenge scavenger hunt was this weekend. Among the items they asked for was "a film cell from the movie Titanic, and a "Viking hat".

Surprisingly, I didn't have the cell, but I knew that Chantelle would! She's at least as big a Titanic geek as I am.

The Viking hat didn't have any detail beyond that, so I included my Norse fur cap. Probably they were expecting a plastic helmet with horns, Ala Hagar the Horrible. However,  on the basis that Norse were a people and Viking was an activity, we could argue the point that my hat was more authentic. Possibly my first attempt at being a Period Nazi.

Turns out the judges were "pleasantly surprised" by both the cell (due to rareness) and the hat (because it was real and not cliche).

My geek is mighty!

A warm hat is just the thing for swimming in the north Atlantic
