100 Documents that shaped America. Not only do they provide nice little summaries of each, but give more detailed descriptions on each as well. A good historical reference.

Gents: Don’t wear out your wrists with self-dating
There are machines that will take care of that for your now. That’s the nastiest device I’ve ever seen.

The Bullet-proof briefcase
I need one of these, as you never know when it will come in handy. This thing is a briefcase that provides the following, critical, feature:
LIFE CASE will defeat bullets fired from submachine guns as well as .38, .357, and .44 Magnums..even 12ga .00 buckshot from shotguns as well as a whole spectrum of other calibers.
Now, if I ever have the need for this bag, that’s another worry entirely, but it’d still be cool, if not just for the James Bond nature of it.
Domains for sale
You know, I’m never going to use these, so does anybody want whoflungdung.net or webhostsinc.com? I own them both, and have no need for them.
You know how to contact me. Make me an offer.
Wanted: Some computer parts
I need some stuff for work, maybe you can help me out:
Memory: I need some PC100 ECC Registered 256meg RAM. Would prefer a good brand, as it’s going in a couple servers. I need at least 3 (prefer 5) sticks of this. If I can buy them all from one place to save shipping costs, let me know, but I’ll take whatever bits and pieces I can get.
CPU: I need a couple 500mhz Slot 1 PIIIs (or two matching of a higher speed, up to 600, as that’s as fast as these servers can handle). Having a heat sink isn’t entirely necessary, as I’m probably going to have to get a new one for them anyway (the Proliant 800/1600 that these are going into require some odd-ball heatsinks to fit in there, but send the heatsink along so I can see if I can jury-rig it).
Compaq Proliant Parts: I need some VRMs and the aforementioned heatsinks for the Proliant 800/1600. I’ll dig up the part number, if need be. I know I’ll probably have to hit fleaBay for these, but I figured I’d ask here, first.
You can contact me using the info here. If you need references, Heatware is under “orty“. Ebay feedback under “orty.com“.
Student cuts off penis and tongue after drinking hallucinogenic tea
I can’t even think of anything witty to say about this story. This is why drugs are bad.
How would you like to blow $300,000 on nothing?
The “Buy It Now” price is $300K on “Nothing”. If you win the auction for less, it’s only $75.99 shipping.

Imagine how life would have been different for Arnold Schwarzenigger.
That’s some fine piano playing
I tend to judge a piano player’s ability based on if they can play the Rach 3 — that, or the original Super Mario Brother’s themes. Latter link via alldumb.com.
