Dave Hrynkiw
January 9, 2013
This week, we're kinda bored. The New Year has been ushered in, but now it's starting to feel so... old. Almost like the same 'New Year' thing happens every 12 months or something. So instead of just your normal smattering of links, this week we want to include something to make it a little bit more interesting. And nothing quite does a better job of that than injecting a little bit of OUTER SPACE here and there, to spice things up. You know, with... space spice. Mmm, so good.
