(Good to be back, y’all. Didn’t realize how addicted I was till they took my cyber-crack away from me!)

I noticed during The Interregnum that The Straight Dope is now listed as a link at [bored.com](http://bored.com), a site I discovered one day. (Yes, when I was bored.)

The site is chock full of mildly amusing little things to visit and do to keep one amused and occupied for 20 minutes or so.

I hope it doesn’t result in the trailer-trash crowd entering our gated community.

You’re about a year too late Kemosabe.

I can’t say about the AOL crowd though. I’ll go find my dollar bill and some fishin’ line.

I just read the story of the guy who cashed a $95,000 promotional, “non-negotiable” pseudo-check. A great story!
