Quizzed!

Gawd I am so utterly bored right now. 


Correction. Have been bored the last 48 hours. The entire weekend was spent in the close confines of home.....or rather my room with an occasional step outside to umm....eat or poop.

Thank God for the internet. And broadband. 

I just been hanging out in the web world. I can now conclude that a human being can survive for any length of time, all alone, by just looking at one website. Yes just one.

Craigslist.

You can find all kinds of things at Craigslist. All kinds. I mean it. For example:


I'm going nuts. Time for some TV.

PS: Oh yeah, by the way, I was so bored I took a 'News Quiz' at Reuters. Yeah, you read it right - a freaking news quiz. And as with any other test I've taken since kindergarten, I could not score over the magical 75th percentage.
