This is just cool. After thinking about how to describe this, the best word I can come up with is “cool.” Well, that and “super cool,” “really cool,” and “frikkin’ cool.” In fact, any combination of words and “cool” would suitably describe this. If you...

It’s been a while since I’ve done a links page like this. I started posting these because there’s SO much out there on the web to check out, it’s near impossible to see it all. A buddy of mine, John Beard, always jokes how one...
