Cool right? Zeke is even mentioned by name.

I love Wikipedia, it can be the ultimate time wasting experience.

That's just cool!

Awesome! I'm not the world's biggest Wikipedia fan -- it strikes me as a bit of a popularity contest -- but it's a very useful site, and being in there somewhere is sweet.

(We've actually been in the German version for some time. We're one of the links on the Star Trek article.)

*reading* Fiver is a fictional character - an intelligent and moody rabbit with premonitions of the future - in Richard Adams' acclaimed novel Watership Down. During the course of the story, the author asserts that rabbits "can only count to four", and anything beyond that is simply considered "many" or "a thousand". Fiver's name came about because he was one of the later (and smaller) rabbits born in a large litter. There were probably more than just five rabbits in the litter, however.


You made it in just under my favorite rabbit. Speaking of which, anyone going to eventually five Watership Down?

I don't go near Wikipedia unless I can really help it. It always turns into a "just one more link" kind of situation and then before you know it whole days have gone by. Still, it's kinda cool all the same.

Still, if you don't have anything better to do you can find some interesting stuff by following random lines of links. Like the history of Marmite for example.

^ Well, everyone knows that anyway - it was invented in 1943 as a way of torturing Nazi prisoners without actually breaking the Geneva Convention.
