I swear to god I am going to shoot whoever wrote those articles I dug up
with the Explorer. It's like watching a Saturday Night Live skit about
Minnesota, and about as amusing. And we all know how amusing SNL is right

or both. Oy. Watch me happily ignore most of it, thank you.

Thanks for the pointer at least. :)
