When you need to know there are web sites even worse than yours and mine:
Mirsky. Need I say more?
Click here for Leonard's ten worst and more.
Nobody does it worse than Bud Uggly.
In case my observations were not acerbic enough for you, try these: Read The Onion for the "news" you somehow missed. And read The Toilet Paper. Their name threatens to become generic, a la Xerox, to refer to all newspapers. Suck.com says it all. So does hissyfit.com. Not cynical enough for you? Then find out just how much time you have left on this rock at Deathclock.com. These are simply bizarre:
Not just another pretty face. It might be said he has the looks for radio. "The Art Bell Show" is heard overnight coast-to-coast on the radio and via the internet. Click here for Art's complete website emphasizing UFO's, alien abductions, psychic phenomena, and all things paranormal.
Stick Figure Death Theatre.
Mutant make-overs and annoy the little man.
Finally, explanations of all the dark mysteries of the last half century and more! (Old Man's recommendation: skip the Dahmer e-correspondence)
Remember SeaMonkeys? Well, there is a site dedicated to them.
Hey, Surfer! Tired of the same old personals? The "Russian Mail Order Brides" and "Asian Women Looking For Love" sites haven't worked for you? Here is a new twist on an old theme! JailBabes.Com!
The curious life and death of legendary fat man Walter Hudson.
TV - that Vast Wasteland (links for those of us who need to get a life):
As if "Melrose Place" weren't amusing enough, click here for a humorous slant.
Suck e-zine has a sensible prescription for making The Jerry Springer Show even better!!! (difficult as that may be to believe!)
Miscellaneous:
Earthquakes, volcanoes and tsunamis... things still fascinating after all these years.
And of course... DINOSAURS!
Amusement park physics. Back in high school, you knew this would be relevant somehow, didn't you?
When you HAVE to know what your phone number says.
FINALLY a sight about rutabagas!
Click here for important consumer information.
The Old Man's Reading Room:
Walden on-line? What would Thoreau have made of this?
The Old Man's Music Room:
Did you ever wonder what the lyrics to that song weren't?
The Old Man likes to follow the market. Here are some sites that are both fun and useful:
For those of you tempted to hop on the gravy train, max out the credit cards and invest it all in the soaring internet stocks, pause a moment and read about
tulipmania or the South Sea
Bubble. If you still don’t get it, come
back here and I will sell you some shares in this website.
I am inspired every weekday by the energy and brass of James J. Cramer. You can read him for free here and watch him for free now and then on CNBC's Squawk Box and on ABC's Good Morning America, so why subscribe to TheStreet.com?
Just listening to Bob Brinker's Money Talk radio program has made me money. My local radio station pre-empts him for the Red Sox, Bruins, Patriots, Celtics, bingo, local tiddlywinks matches, anything in furtherance of their sports-station image. Click here and see where you can listen to him on the net (4-7PM, ET, Saturday and Sunday).
I think CBS Marketwatch is the best source for general business news on-line. Complete and nicely organized.
And of course The Motley Fool. Screw the financial experts; let common sense prevail. Be Foolish... it works!
