Nerd Party Prep

I'm doing a nerd-themed party in less than two weeks (the real theme of the party is the 80's movie "Real Genius" with Val Kilmer).

Anyways, I've been trying to think up a nerdy list of drinks (at least nerdy-sounding). Here's what I've come up with so far, see what you think:

• Nerds (Midori, Blue curacao, Lemonade)
• Mad Scientist (Midori, Sweet & Sour, 7-up, 151-rum)
• Mitosis (Cognac, Sweet & Sour, Ginger Ale)
• Toxic Waste (Blue Curacao, OJ, Orange liqueur)
• Jellyfish (Vodka, Blue curacao, Sambuca, cream)

Now, I'm not sure if they'll let me play with 151 and fire at this particular party ... Hopefully the rest of the list will be fun fun (btw, it's a biology group).

Any other ideas, guys?
