It's the Weekly What? for Friday, November 18th.
Discover what's so special about today.Actually, nothing. Sorry. We got so excited about the whole 11/11/11 thing that we started throwing little parties every day when the time and date would match: "Whoop! It's 11:14:11 on 11/14/11! Let's party like it's 1999!" We finally stopped when our desk was relocated to the supply closet. So...we've got a great mix of non-date specific links for your enjoyment on this completely ordinary Friday. Enjoy!
