Links
Yes, I know this is turning into a once-monthly blog. I'm sorry. Want more? Click an ad, make me some money! Nothing motivates like mad ducats.
And with a new monthly-update comes a new format. I will leave a (sometimes) cryptic link so you may open the door and discover the wondrous treasures within.
The Ultimate Zombie Book List
Zombie Squad
Perez Hilton
The Gentleman's Page
Global Security
Birthday Trivia
Temple of the Screaming Electron
T-Shirt Hell

Long Time
Yes, I've been slacking. I've been busy, what with graduating, going on a trip to Hawaii, and general tomfoolery.
Also, I've been playing Urban Dead, a free web-based MMORPG based around zombies (my favorite!). Make sure you at least read the FAQ of the wiki before you start playing, or you will be very lost.
If you like Urban Dead, then you'll probably like Shartak, too.
Into cockfighting? Try BattleWang.
I guess I'm on a roll here, so I'll just finish up with a few more web-based games. Popomundo lets you become a pop music star. If you play and run into Benito Arasa De Miguel Abad, that's me -- say hi!
Travian is a city-building game based on the Romans, the Gauls, and the Teutons.
Finally, there is NationStates, a very tongue-in-cheek nation simulator created by Max Barry.
I hope you enjoy the games, and please click on an ad or two if you did -- it's the ad money that makes this worthwhile for me (and my neglected wife and child)!

Happy 60th Birthday, UNICEF!
Yep, the United Nations Children's Fund was born on December 11th, 1946 (formerly known as the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund, hence, UNICEF). This is one of my favorite charities (and the first one I ever donated to) -- I used to 'trick-or-treat for UNICEF' with my church when I was a boy. Check 'em out. Save the kids.
Today I'm going to do things a little differently. All of the links (aside from those above) are going to be of the same theme -- The Simpsons! Here are a bunch of terrific Simpsons-related sites that I have found:
The Simpsons Archive -- this site has EVERYTHING Simpsons. Episode 'capsules' give you more information about each episode than you ever wanted (or needed, really) to know. Of special interest to information junkies like myself is the FAQs, Guides & Lists section of the site. Read every chalkboard gag EVER. Learn about every computer reference made on the show. Thrill to the lyrics of all the musical numbers performed by The Simpsons. Truly a site with an incredible amount of substance.
Simpsons Channel -- a frequently updated news site. Very well designed, and has all the latest news on your favorite Springfieldinites. Also has an RSS feed for your convenience.
The Simpsons Folder -- I love the pixel pictures of the Simpsons here. Lots of information related to production here, as well as trivia -- did you know that more people know about the Simpsons than the Constitution? God bless America!
Last Exit to Springfield -- wow. This site is amazing. Great design and tons of content. Check it.
Krustylu Studios -- videos, forums, and news.
NoHomers.net -- images, games, news, and more.

Happy Union Day, Romania!
The first bloggers.
More anatomy. Here's a list of muscles in your body. Find out what people are really talking about when they compliment you on your mentalis.
99rooms.com is a neat Flash photo site. From the info page: 99 Rooms is a unique internet art project that interweaves wall painting, photography, animation and sound in a manner entirely unknown until now.
Yet another page on good shopping deals around the Internet. I think I'm going to stop posting these; there are just too many of them and they all offer pretty much the same thing.
MacroHistory is a great site covering lots of history (duh) from the prehistoric to the modern age. I especially like the historical maps.
Visit the River Styx. A Flash page holding lots of philosophy with a mythological backdrop.
Here are some highlights from the book Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong.

Happy Birthday, Jimi Hendrix! (This time, for real)
Oops. I jumped the gun on wishing Jimi a happy birthday. Today is his REAL birthday. Color me sheepish.

See how fast your broadband connection is at Speedtest.net -- you can select from a variety of sites across the world that offer speed tests, and see how your transfer rate is to those locations.
Earth Album is a great example of what you can do with the Google Maps API. It combines Google Maps with Flickr, so you can see the top Flickr photos for a specific region of the world. I like all of the aurora pictures from the Northwest Territories in Canada.
Thinking Machine 4 is a cool Java chess game that makes art out of chess. Hard to explain, you just have to see it.

Happy Birthday, Jimi Hendrix!
That rock god, Jimi, would have been 56 years old today. If he would be a washed up burnout is debatable.
Online shoppers, check out deals of the day.
Also for you shoppers out there, check out ProductWiki to find out about the newest neat stuff out there.
Here's a humbling exercise, at least for an ignorant American like myself. See how many countries in the Middle East you can locate.

Special Topics In Calamity Physics is a book that I understand is quite popular. I have yet to see if it's worth all the fuss, but the website is pretty cool.
