This is officially the high point of my day. Douglas Adams was a fan of Dave Barry! Is that cool or what?

A site I first stumbled across many moons ago that disappeared for a while, but now has return-ed. Basically, you create a creature, and it either eats other things or gets eaten itself, and perhaps even has offspring. I promise you, you'll not be able to stop with just one...

Steam Trek! A great fanfilm shot in grainy black and white just like the old silent movies. It even uses those comical dialogue flashcards. The ship needs coal to keep going, so our intrepid crew must descend via ladder to a planet to get mixed up in various hijinks to save the day!

That IQ test is US centred. How TF should I know about nickles and dimes?

However, I am apparently a verbal genius. Which fits - the last WAIS verbal score I got was 153.

Whatever WAIS is.

I'd show off my ACT score, but you guys would hate my guts. More than usual, I mean.

Then again, it probably wouldn't mean anything at all to most of us. You could throw any old number out there, and without looking it up I wouldn't have an idea whether it was good, bad or indifferent.
