Hot Links

Here's a list of links that I've found useful, and use on a regular basis.

Geek Stuff

• Slashdot is the most complete site I can stand reading for news of geek interest.
• Debian GNU/Linux is my favorite Linux distribution.
• UserFriendly - a comic strip about an ISP, a walking dust puppy, and an A.I. named Erwin.
• Dilbert, hero of wage slaves everywhere.
• I am a member of the D/FW UNIX Users Group. Their site has been flaky lately.

Sports

• The Green Bay Packers 12 time NFL champions, and the team I grew up with. They'll always be my hometown team.
• Dallas Stars Hockey Number 9 and the boys. Go Stars!
• Purdue Sports, my alma mater. We can play football now too!
• ESPN online is still the number 1 site for sports. GameTracker is a savior when the game's not on locally.

News and Information

• Reason Online is pretty libertarian-slanted. I don't always agree, but they've got lots of interesting facts and opinions.
• The Weather Channel is where I get my weather information. The weather in Plano, TX

Entertainment

• the Internet Movie Database has almost anything you'd ever want to know about pretty much every movie ever made. Great for finding out what else "That actor" was in.
• GameFAQs has FAQs, message boards and review links for all sorts of video games.
• The TiVo Community Forums have lots of information on TiVo, the best thing to happen to television since the remote control.
• DirecTV provides me with the best and the worst mass media has to offer. NFL Sunday Ticket is mandatory, when you live 1000 miles away from your hometown team.

Other

• Weber BBQ has great recipes and tips for grilling. They also make fantastic grills.
• The Onion is a parody news site. Funny stuff.
• Don't surf without Google, the best search engine on the web.
