Odd (!) Links

Best links on the Internets

Links come and go all the time. They change and shrink and grow and disappear altogether, so I'm sorry if some of these connections are broken, or if the place I remember as so excellent has morphed into a crummy neighborhood or whatever since my last visit... It's the nature of the web. On the other hand, I have run across an assortment of oddball stuff in various forays through the ether, usually while going somewhere, looking for something else. I bookmarked a lot of addresses along the way and think some of them are just awful!! We hope you enjoy them, too.

And depending on your interests, you might enjoy: The Onion!   All the experts agree, The Onion is "America's Finest News Source, an award-winning publication covering world, national, and local issues. It is updated daily online and distributed weekly in select American cities." I don't know anything about that, I just like it because it's pretty funny, usually in an irreverent and vulgar way. The Sneeze - Half zine. Half blog. Half not good with fractions.    This one is pretty funny too. Modern Drunkard Magazine   This web site isn't exactly "everybody's bucket of suds" and in polite company it almost surely merits the "R" rating just based on the political incorrectness of its content. But almost everybody I polled who didn't find it offensive and objectionable seemed to agree that it was pretty funny. Boing Boing: A Directory of Wonderful Things    I don't know about the "wonderful things" part necessarily, but it is a fairly popular and influential weblog of contemporary events and culture. Whatever that means. Urban Legends Reference Pages   Probably, this is the definitive Internet Reference Source for urban legends, folklore, myths, rumors, and misinformation. Just the ticket for checking out the old schoolyard yarns about those evil carnival gypsies at the fairgrounds who kidnap transients and wayward youth from your community to harvest their organs - or worse! FFFFOUND!   Pictures, pictures and more pictures. It's some kind of playground for artists and photographers and graphics groupies of all kinds and is mostly boring-boring-boring until suddenly one of the pictures really hits you. Welcome to Hell   Believe it or not, I've been to Hell and back. Now you can go there too. It's really not at all what I expected.
