An interesting article about how Obama seems to be dealing with his fame.

The music video for "Path" by Apocalyptica, featuring the band having a rock-off with their shadows. Badass - and it's an awesome song too. (Thanks, dantaron!)

A look at hacker slang and hacker culture. I have to admit that I haven't fully read this yet, but it looks interesting.

In more loltastic news, here's a Neuro AMV set to a Dane Cook skit about wanting to be a fireman as a kid and learning how to talk. Hilariously perfect.

For the past few years, I've recorded the books I've read in a notebook, just to see how much I read and what I read.

( The Things Reileen Read in 2008 )

TOTAL: 90, with 15 of the books being nonfiction. A modest count.
