Friday LinkFrogging – 3/4/11

 Good afternoon kids.  I have a confession to make.  I am on a drug. It's called Charlie Sheen. It's not available. If you try it once, you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body. I probably took more than anybody could survive. ... I was bangin' …
