True, though I'm not sure that's the generally accepted definition of "joker." I think this screed could be better summarized by the catchphrase "Git 'r done!" Ironically, said catchphrase was created by one Larry the Cable Guy — a noted co

Perhaps "poo work" or "feces work" would have been more apropos.

I'm a big fan of the Readability bookmarklet (readability.com/bookmarklets), which lets you set the page's font, size, colors, etc. As a bonus, it nukes most of the clutter such as ads and sidebars.
