Do you like to read? When I’m down, I like to lose myself in a book…(the libary is free after all.) So, if this may work for you, here are some of my favorite funny books: [Agnes and the Hitman](http://www.amazon.com/Agnes-Hitman-Jennifer-Crusie/dp/0312363044/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1204210356&sr=8-1). It’s hilarious. I started this one two days ago, and it’s very hard to put down. Also, try the [Stephanie Plum series](http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_b/103-5506156-0781424?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=stephanie+plum) by Janet Evanovich. These are titled with numbers, so it’s easy to figure out which one is next. ---

(Brief hijack) You know, I saw brief clips on the news and around the net about the Thriller video but somehow I just never bothered to watch. “Eh, a bunch of dudes doing Thriller… whoop.” I had no idea what I was missing! ---

I still don’t know how to link stuff, but as you can see Youtube is an endless source of funny. If you haven’t seen Sarah Silvermans video, “I’m F’ing Matt Damon” its worth a look, had me crying. I’m real easily amused though. All someone has to do is fart and I lose it. Anyway, I hope you had a great BD, and I’m sorry no one remembered. ---

[QUOTE=Rascal’s Mom] **bbs2k** , that xkcd link… Gawd. I had to read it a couple times, okay, three, to get it, but then I busted up. I was in the marching band in high school and could just seem me being one of those dorks! [/QUOTE] Okay, we normally don’t reveal this information to xkcd noobs but since this is a special case: there are mouseover funnies, too. Just hold your cursor over the panel for a few seconds. Most of us find that out 3-6 months after falling for xkcd - and then go back through all the archives a second time to read those! ---
