I sometimes write code that is almost useful

For example, today I wrote a python script that scrapes the images out of a gallery2 install. I did this for a few reasons:
*I just learned a bunch of new tricks for vim, so I wanted to exercise them before I forget them
*I want to become comfortable writing python
*I want to become comfortable with (at least some of) the python libraries involved in web scraping
