In my quest to absolutely and completely waste this day (Saturday), I've spent the evening flipping coins on Ken's Coin Flipping Page. Since flipping two, or ten, or 100 coins at a time serves no real purpose, this is a major must try site.
Note: Ken appears to be Canadian, which might explain things. :)

That was a complete waste of time. I think I am addicted.
