Link-O-Rama!

Hey champs and chumps! I've been reasonably busy at work recently and hadn't hit the level of inactivity/boredom required to write a blog. However, I have a small collection of notes and links from stuff I've seen online recently, so I might as well share them with you. Uncyclopedia rules all. Particularly their Did You Know section! Sports Argument Wiki isn't bad though, even if sometimes extremely subtle.

For example, did you know...
...that, according to Aesop, a tortoise and a hare agreed to race? The hare took off at a tremendous pace, but lay down to sleep on the way. The slow but steady tortoise thus emerged victorious. Moral: Tortoises frequently carry rohypnol. Never leave your drink unattended when tortoises are about.
...that there is no other word for thesaurus?
...that the flooding of New Orleans was actually caused by a suicide plumber?
...it's not the cough that carries you off but the coffin they carry you off in?
...that censorship is a tactic practiced by oppressive governments who believe in upholding an arbitrary social standard for the so-called "good of the people" while simultaneously imposing their peremptory moral values on their unwilling populace by dictating what is and what is not necessary for them to experience?

Other Uncyclopedia links:
People with distinguished names
List of weapons that don't exist but should (see Chuck-Nuns)
How to: Start a Religion. Truly brilliant and features one of my favourite style of jokes: the "say one thing but link to what you really mean". For example: Hire people to join the ministry, advertise on television, and pay stores to only accept your religion's prayers as currency. Enjoy that and you might enjoy this too, particularly if you're a fan of flowcharts. And deep down, aren't most of us closet flowchart fanatics? ... Me neither.

Escher's "Crazy Stairs" emulated in Lego!
Simpsons Movie Trailer
Movie WAVs: perfect for setting your ringtone or message tone. I recommend Eurotrip, Talladega Nights or Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.

This is an EVIL BUNNY! Well it scares the crap outta me. Aaah!

For the tech-inclined: I've converted from Bloglines to Google Reader for RSS feeds, thanks to a few nifty things with the interface and the sweet, sweet stats. Plus, I can share items with the click of a button, so any articles I feel are noteworthy, I'll share them quickly without having to assemble a post. This is something I will update throughout days at work, so check out my shared items now! I might even get around to upgrading my blog so it'll hook up with Google's add-ons. It'd be cool to see the shared items appear in my blog's sidebar, for example.

One final shoutout to the Faceoff Hockey Show, the best damn podcast there is. Currently, it's the only one I'm listening to (now that NFL season is over), so I'm trying a few radio podcasts (Tony Martin, Hamish and Andy, Merrick and Rosso) to try and uncover some gold. I love gooooolllld!
