Just ’cause you got chains doesn’t mean it’s S&M. Might just be snow tires, fer crissakes.

Well I’m still away, but in order to entertain you masses I give you a collection of random links:

• SlashDigg.com all the nerdy news out there.
• The Sawyer Song and don’t worry, no Lost spoilers.
• SFX forum for all your sci-fi/fantasy chatting. Check out there movie section which has two big ole threads on Serenity, why it is great, and why it bombed^[1]
• CummingFirst should really think about that url^[2] And don’t worry, it is totally safe for work.
• Bud White A post over on The Sheila Variations all about Russell Crowe’s character in LA Confiential

And if I don’t return, blame the weather:
Issuing a severe weather warning yesterday, Met Éireann said counties Donegal, Mayo, Leitrim, Sligo and parts of Cavan are likely to experience the worst of the cold weather. (subs req’d)
Course a cold snap in Ireland is probably nothing in comparison to a cold snap in say Siberia. But still. Snow! w00t and other exclamations.
