Alphabet Autofill! [More:]Saw this on jessamyn's blog. You put each letter of the alphabet into your browser of choice, and see what link pops up first.

Wow. Some neat links here. I love the Beaker Ode to Joy, which lead me to a variety of other muppet videos - Bohemian Rhapsody!! Also, John Denver getting attacked by mushrooms is my favorite Muppet Show clip!
