Wikipedia is so distracting

I'm trying to brush up on statistics by manually spidering Wikipedia, starting from their statistics article, but the non-statistics cross-links are sometimes just too tempting. Today's list of strange Wikipedia articles: Roadkill, Pruno, Honda's integral exhaust manifold, and, more mathy: Nimbers, Khinchin's constant. And I have forgotten how much I love analysis (see, e.g. this example and discussion of the difference between real and complex functions).

And I finally got a working sound card. Music for today: KMFDM, Bruce Springsteen, various Church of Northwest Music compilation artists, Britney Spears, Lard, Leonard Cohen, some random accordian music, and Coheed and Cambria, Ministry.
