Friday LinkFrogging – 1/22/10

Welcome back once again true believers!

Its been a busy week here at GonzoGeek (well, at least for me).  We’ve gathered our links and now I’m ready to lay them on you.

But before I do that, let me introduce you to this week’s cheesecake.  Please say hello to Yvonne Strahovski.  Yvonne plays Sarah the sultry superspy (isn’t alliteration fun) on NBC’s Chuck.  For all the flak NBC has taken this week, their handling of Chuck at the end of last season should be applauded.  A bubble show, Chuck, has/had a very loyal fanbase and NBC listened to them.  Chuck got renewed for a third season.  That season is underway on Mondays.  Maybe Conan should have called Yvonne.

On with the links.

  1. LBJ orders pants, burps and uses the word “bunghole,” not necessarily in that order.
