Links

You're bored, you say? You've been surfing the net for what seems like an indefinably long time, and have finally run out of interesting places to go, you say?

Well, fear not! In an effort to save you, fearless reader, from the stress and strain of Looking For Fun, Useful, Informative, And/Or Wacky Spots On The World Wide Web, I present to you my list of links that I like to visit frequently.

They're wacky! They're wild! They'll make you smarter! They'll make you buy stuff you didn't know you needed! Assuming you trust my judgment (and hey, why not?), you'll love 'em!
