Hi

I'm Jim Biancolo, and this is stuff I found interesting that I thought you might like too. Here are some of my favorites if you want to start there. Mostly I link to other people, but some stuff is mine, like:

My AutoHotkey scripts, including one for universal AutoCorrect.
A list of my favorite action scenes.
A bunch of movies I liked that are available to watch instantly on Netflix.
Fun with Bic pens: the Earth Pen and the Fridge Pen.
My very own oatmeal recipes that sound totally gross but are actually good.
