Links for the Week - September 28, 2008


I don't feel guilty for not blogging for a while, no I sure don't. Guilt is certainly not why I'm posting a bunch of random (but great) links for you to look at. Nope, not at all:

April Fool's Day 2008, So Far


Well, you know my criteria for good April Fool's Day jokes. Here's what I've kept track of so far for the day:
