This is a tedious link type challenge. Basically, you have to link two words together using Wikipedia by clicking the links in between. For example, if you had to link KFC to Beer it would be:

KFC...
KFC is a type of Fried Chicken...
Fried chicken is dipped in a breaded mixture...
Bread can be topped with...savoury spreads such as Marmite...
Marmite is a British savoury spread made from yeast extract, a by-product of the beer brewing process...
Beer!

I'll start it off anyway, link HTML to Metaphysics

Edit: oh yeah, the first person to complete picks the next two :)

Something like that , anyway.

Marzipan is used as a traditional treat for New Year's Day...
New years day, in most countries, it is a holiday...
In the United States, a holiday is a day set aside by a nation or culture...
The United States is an influential country in scientific and technological research, including computers...
The global Internet allows millions of computers to transfer information of all types between each other...
Microsoft developers publish blogs on the Internet...
Microsoft created Windows and the Office suite...
The Office Assistant is often dubbed "Clippy" or "Clippit," due to its default to a paperclip character...

A bit long winded :)

David Hasselhoff and Comic book guy
 
From Wiki:

David hasselhoff was the main actor in Knight Rider,

In Spain, Knight Rider was known as "El Coche Fantástico" (Literally "The Fantastic Car". "Coche" also translates to car, this is a stylistic difference of the Spanish language, whose vernacular varies from country to country) and FLAG was called "Fundación para la Ley y el Orden". The voice of KITT was dubbed by Carlos Revilla, a loved actor for his excellent work as Homer Simpson (The Simpsons); he died in 2000.

which of course leads us to The Simpsons and comic book guy :D
