Some More Sunday Links

Here are some more links on this Sunday as I try to watch True Blood and not get attracted to Anna Paquin. Ever since I saw her in “The Piano”, I never gave her a thought as she was only a kid. Then I saw her in “Almost Famous” and couldn’t believe how much she had grown up. Now in True Blood, she’s so sexy, even with that gap in her teeth. Never thought I would think that about her, but man. Anyway, I’ll do the links before I get distracted.
