i love wikipedia

wikipedia is great, i must have no life, but i sit there and just go from topic to topic following the links around just reading the most random shit evar. i went from reading about boeing, to all sorts of aircraft, then to airplane disasters, then military aircraft. i somehow then ended up reading about all sorts of highway related stuff.

i found out today that the 747's used to transport the space shuttle across the country get about 0.023 miles per gallon, and it costs about $230,000 for a one way flight. where will this information help me in life? i dont know.

i love wikipedia.

discuss.

I predict that one day you will write these words, in context:

'Suck it Trebek.'

wikipedia does kickass, but then there is that possibility of adding shit to a section. i don't care though, i still drift endless through the pages...

my friends were trying to convince another friend of ours to smoke some weed, but he absolutely refused (gave some buddhist reason or something), and so my friends went on wikipedia, changed it to say something like, "buddha was known to have smoked a great deal in his enlightening period." he changed his view and is strongly considering smoking soon.

Wikipedia is good for killing time or for finding out about stuff that you can look elsewhere to find out about.
