Wednesday links are back, with more wednesdayness and linkness. Or linkedness. In any case, after the holidays we got better. More rested, more well-fed, more exercised, more healthy, more balanced, more busy, more relaxed, more organized, more happy... Er, I think these were New Year resolutions... All I mean is that we are finally back with all kinds of interesting stuff harvested from different parts of the internet.  Reading it benefits eye-to-mouse coordination and general well-being.
