Adding Prototype and Scriptaculous to pages (without it already) using Greasemonkey.
Imagine it should be possible to create a bit of code to auto-load all the goodies, although unfortunately it probably would need to be done via the unsafeWindow.
And Blue Peter warned us about that.
It was rather foggy yesterday, as can be seen in this pic and the ones after it in the gallery.
I was stuck driving through it slowly while my bro was gallivanting around a couple of thousand feet above it taking these pics.

The Sopwith Camel.
Famed among those who know of it
This is an essential bit of kit if you want your perl applications to run properly in Middle Earth.
Example usage:
use DateTime::Fiction::JRRTolkien::Shire;
# Constructors
my $shire = DateTime::Fiction::JRRTolkien::Shire->new(year => 1419,
month => 'Rethe',
day => 25);
# Accessors
$year = $shire->year;
$month = $shire->month; # 1 - 12, or 0 on a holiday
$month_name = $shire->month_name;
$day = $shire->day; # 1 - 30, or 0 on a holiday
$dow = $shire->day_of_week; # 1 - 7, or 0 on certain holidays
$day_name = $shire->day_name;
$holiday = $shire->holiday;
$holiday_name = $shire->holiday_name;
$leap = $shire->is_leap_year;

"Availability: Currently unavailable. We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock."
Just set this up yesterday, rather than my previous configuration of Exim with a SpamAssassin router. It means I can now use a simple grep on the exim log file to see the ratio of spam (and other unwanted stuff like virii) to genuine mail.
And the results (since the logfile was last rolled over just under five hours ago) are:
[04:45:48 root]$ grep Completed mainlog | wc -l
107
[space-monster:/var/log/exim]
[04:48:01 root]$ grep rejected mainlog | wc -l
11871
[space-monster:/var/log/exim]
[04:48:05 root]$ grep Rejected mainlog | wc -l
3197
Which is to say, 11871 junk, 3197 of which were viruses, 107 legitimate mails.
