* The search results for "extricate" and "shrapnel" (individually) on Google will lead you to other weblogs. Together, they will lead you to Now This.

P.S. The shrapnel from discarded phrases will rain down upon Seth as he extricates words from this site to use in cumulative sentences.

* Whenever attempting to explain the purpose of his weblog to others, Steve usually just sighs and says, "mental shrapnel."

* Bravo, Damien! Good one! Reminds me of Seth's tagline: "The second law of thermodynamics states that any time you do anything constructive, there is a less-organized waste product. This is mine."

I have no sentence. *sniff* Just not feeling very creative these days.
