Links
Yes, the 90's are over and yet I have a Links page anyway. This page is under construction. Also, "Web surfing" and "LOL".
Don't complain or I'll just add a bunch of animating GIFs and blinking text. Maybe a red - no, multicolor - marquee...
So take that, trend-obsessed netizens out in cyberspace.
Once again: "Cyberspace".
*ahem*...

Web Comics
