As an employer and one who would never waste time on the Internet while he's supposed to be working, I probably shouldn't be sharing

Tired of working in the same old rut? Need a new job, or just want to get fired? The following ten websites are assured to enrage your boss if he or she catches you surfing said sites. Enrage and possibly terminate your employment, actually.

I'm proud to note that one of my previous posts, the Toilet Paper Unrolling page, has made that list. And allow me to suggest other bubblewrap sites:
http://www.snapbubbles.com/
http://www.virtualbubblewrap.com/
And here's one that's in the form of a game (making it a bit less pointless), and it's put out by the manufacturers of real, live, meatworld bubblewrap:

Now, this makes sense: put out a game that encourages people to pop bubblewrap. That way, people will get the real bubblewrap and pop it and then, when they need bubblewrap, what will they have to do?
Buy more bubblewrap, of course.
Genius. Sheer, unadulterated, marketing genius. My people have a technical term for that: chutzpah.
This, though, is the best bubblewrap site ever - because you don't have to even click the mouse, just kind of run it around on the bubbles. No scoring, either. And it regenerates, making it the second - or maybe the third - most pointless waste of time since voting against Mugabe.

Regular readers may wonder why I haven't said anything about George Carlin's untimely, terrible, tragic, and totally serious death here. Well, there's been three reasons for that:
1) Everyone else has, and I hate being part of a crowd, which is why I have a blog;
2) I've heard the media is playing it to death (so to speak), though I don't actually have any firsthand evidence of this because I don't have cable; and
3) I'm thinking about dedicating the next issue of the Comedy newsletter to him.
So, what do y'all think? Should I join the rest of the world in paying tribute to the Master in the next Comedy newsletter, or should I just talk about, oh, I don't know, boobies, or bubblewrap?
