Anyway, the site is no longer on the internet, presumably because its hosting provider concluded that providing access to this kind of content may violate the Geneva Convention. To be honest, I suspect if it were still available it wouldn't hold up to my memory. So this week's link is to my memory of finding an old website funny.
Wholesome backup link: Merlin Mann's work-in-progress Wisdom Project.

- Sugar (in the “dressing”)
- Grapes
