Okay, so I know I'm turning into Sir Linksalot here but that will have to do for today and the near future until I can come up with ideas on how to make this blog work a bit better and not have to spend a ton of time on it knowing that I have other work to do that will keep me in clothing.
So, you're Sir Linksalot news drop for the day (some interesting pieces nonetheless):
