Yep, that's how random I'm feeling. StumbleUpon is just fantastic for all this randomness.

I had no idea this site existed, and it's worth taking a look at it, at your home country especially, just for a laugh. The style is a lot more personalised than Wikipedia, and quite sarcastic at points. For example, when browsing through the regional specialities for food in the UK, I came across this little gem:

Haggis - a mixture of sheep innards and oatmeal boiled in a sheep's stomach. Available widely, but a speciality of Scotland. Also available in many supermarkets, where it appears that many sheep have plastic stomachs - although the contents are often quite reasonable.


The part in bold made me laugh. So, yeah, see how many crazy quotes you can find on the glorious site that is - Wikitravel.

Or ignore this post and condemn me to an institution for the clinically insane. Whatever. :wink:
There's always been a lot of tension between Lois and me, and it's not so much that I want to kill her, it's just, I want her to not be alive anymore.

Stumble upon, how I love you...


St. Louis' recent designation as the Most Dangerous City in America should not deter the potential visitor -- vagaries in data collection and the city's fixed borders distort the true nature of the Gateway City's safety.


XD No, do take their advice. The city scares me a wee bit... I would really hate to be there after dark.

Maybe what most people wanted wasn't immortality and fame, but the reassurance that their existence had meant something. No matter how long... or how brief. Maybe being eternal meant becoming a story worth telling.
