Snow Crash - Neal Stephenson At least I think I have. It's been a while since I read any Neal Stephenson, and I forget which is which.

take the WHAT BAD BOOK ARE YOU test.


and go to mewing.net. not as good as reading a good book, but way better than a bad one.


Cor, I haven’t been to mewling in a while - rollicking ostrich, by the by.

*snorts*

And speaking of frivolity…

wetdryvac will have to write:

I will not lie on the ground and tell people they don't want to know why I'm lying there

'What will you have to write on the chalk board?' at QuizGalaxy.com

And another ellipsis… just because I can.

fluff, quiz, random, meme
