Today you get the special pleasure of two... count 'em... one... two... Golden Banana links of the day. Why? Because. That's why.

Here's the text of the article just in case they take it away.

17 Monkeys This was a web address on the email I received the previous link from. It's a rather boring page, but I like the slogan... "When 16 monkeys isn't enough". Imagine if they were archer monkeys...

The Spark's Fat Project 30 pounds in 30 days... sounds like a weight loss commercial. *wrong* The Spark is sponsoring 2 people to GAIN 30 pounds in 30 Days.
