Aside from writing jokes and code, Geoffrey blogs, tracks hurricanes, brews beer, cooks, and occassionally posts a photo on Instagram not of his cats.
You can read his blog, like his tweets, be his friend on Facebook, watch his stupid videos, listen to his podcast, or look at photos of his cats and food he cooked.
He used to co-host a sports podcast, believe it or not, called Delay of Game. He was also the subject of a cover story for Gambit Weekly (December 4, 2017) about the hurricane scale and algorithm he developed, called the Tropical Cyclone Intensity Scale.
