Edit: God damn school comps. The first message died, so I wrote another one, and now they're both posted! Gah!

Check the wiki for the truly weird stuff.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Unusual_articles

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_W._Bush_pretzel_incident



And no, I still haven't figured out how do the neat 'this word is the link!' trick. Meh
