Friday LinkFrogging – 1/29/10

Welcome back to our weekly stroll through the back alleys of the internet as hosted by the gang here at GonzoGeek.  As always, we seek to entertain and enlighten (enlightertain?  enterlighten?).

As is the tradition around here, before we begin our journey we must introduce this week’s tour guide (also known in these parts as cheesecake).  This week, that honor goes to Mariska Hargitay.

Why you may ask?  Well, let me tell you.  Stephe suggested that we post someone whose show got cancelled because of the Jay Leno experiment.  We’d already done that.  Or, someone whose show was coming back as a result of the failure of the Jay Leno experiment.  I went the next step and suggested someone whose show was going back to its rightful timeslot.

Hello Mariska.

For what its worth, Mariska had some less than pleasant things to say about Law and Order – SVU’s ratings decline as a result of its time change.

And just as an aside, given who her mother was, you’d think it would be easier to find really good cheesecake photos of Mariska.

On to the links.
