The Retropoet has no fancy banner or animation to bestow on these websites, yet they deserve an award for excellece of execution. The Retropoet also likes to surf the crest of the wave, but those types of websites will not be found under this section.
- Retta's Place . More good humor than you can shake a stick at.
- MOM ALERT! VISIT HERE AGAIN!
- Stormi's Home .
- The source of endless pages of backgrounds, sweet music, and mucho etcetera. VERY WELL DONE!

- Learn as much as you can about the wolf, then pass the knowledge on to someone else.
- My favorite wrestler .
- This is where I go to get the latest on Tommy "Strychnine" Stryker. I am a Stryker Liker from way back.

The Retropoet also recommends you volunteer for the tour. This has been customized by me. Click on 'tour' on the banner at the top of the page. My alphabet starts with SoHo and ends with SiliconValley.
SoHo
- Dreamworld
- Welcome to dreamworld. Would you believe cartoons by a 5 yr. old with accompanying analysis by his shrink? Me neither. But it is a load of laughs and he has a link page that looks like more fun!
- Big Scary Housewife
- The Big Scary Housewife. Neat page. Find a poetry webring there. And some scary housewife stuff.
- Earth Mother
- Waiting for another birthday on January 5th, to send birthday wishes. e-mail. I like the e-mail address.
- brie's Home Page
- If you understand *g* and *lmao* and *lol* and *bag*, then you might enjoy this page. I am just waiting for January 7th, to send birthday wishes.
- Surprise
- It's a surprise. I found this noted on some scrap paper by my computer.
- Jonna
- Jonna is a great artist. Quick loading pix, too.
- Jayme Decas.
- Jayme is a big fan of Queen, so there is lots of stuff about that band there. But that is not all. Oh nosirree, Bob! A page is being added about Mental Hospitals, to go along with some short stories already there. I mean, the stories are on Jami's website, not at the hospital. Visit again! Ask her to design you website, or read her book online.
- Roger
- Roger's Page. I recommend reading Hallowed Be My Name, a short story by Roger.
SoHo/Lofts
- Vampire Coyote.
- Visit the vampire/coyote. Poetry, legends, tricks?
South Beach/Lights
- Purple Cow
- The home of the purple cow. Lots of cute images, soon to be updated with cute baby pictures?
SunsetStrip/Towers
- Toadies
- A history of the Toadies. One of my favorite bands. I spent an afternoon looking at Toadies fan pages, and here is a simple one with the best information on their past. Otherwise you can just go to Interscope, their label and official website.
TimesSquare
- Alex Wagner
- Alex Wagner. If you play bridge - its for you. Tons of other links too.
TimesSquare/Alley
- Final Fantasy Seven Game Fan
- One member of our household played Final Fantasy 7 for many hours. Here is a site about that game, and I assume it includes tips on play.
Tokyo/Ginza
- A Stephen Crane Poem . The trouble with edu links, is that the student graduates, and their website disappears. Here is a new link to replace one like I talked about. Interesting midis?
TheTropics
- Meara
- Meara's Home Page. Also called "My little hole", meaning, apparently, something to crawl into and hide. Some poetry. Some school stuff. A thought-provoking rant on the merits of the death penalty.
Vienna
- Rodrian
- Rodrian's midis. Some of the best I've heard, all in the classical vein, leaning towards Bach. I just had to have his version of Fur Elise!
Wellesley
- Maggie Estep Fan
- A fan of Maggie Estep. You know, spoken word, feminist, humor? Also some original poetry, and some Leonard Cohen, and lots of other stuff.
Yosemite/Trails
- Minnesota Fishing
- A page devoted to fishing in Minnesota, alright?
AAA (self-named sites)
- Angela
- Pages in German or English. Cats, Dogs, Mynahs, Backgrounds, Web design, banner design, and all around friendliness.
- Ann-s-thesia
- Formerly SoHo/4941, one of the first sites to take advantage of geocities expanded program. And what a place to visit! Plenty of outstanding graphics. If you are looking for a banner maker, there are links to a goodly number of them. If you have no time for your web site, there is also professional design service available at ann-s-thesia's studio. Surfers beware -- there are two lovebirds here so intimately linked that a surfer could get lost in the web.
Athens/Academy
- Do you have a sense of humor?
- If the answer is no, you should not go in. Related to the Church of the Bunny, I think.
Athens/Delphi
- I Am Curious, Rainbow!
- A fine example of a rainbow background. Poetry. Backgrounds available. Some graphic butterflies. A new site for me, not fully explored, yet.
Athens/Parthenon
- Crystalbear's Home Page
- Original poetry and, as soon as the proper advice is administered, lots of family pictures. If you are a computer whiz, visit Louise and give her a helping hand.
CapeCanaveral/Hangar
- Stupid Page of Dinosaurs.
- The Stupid Page of Dinosaurs. I discovered this after clicking on the banner for The Stupid Page of Rocks (see Rainforest/Canopy).
CollegePark
- Mmontague
- mmontague's Home Page. Some cute animations, and links to every conceivable high school subject, almost. Also, to get you started, links to Shakespeare. For newbies some links to html studies. What do you expect in College Park, neon signs?
Colosseum

Colosseum/Arena

Hollywood/Set

Hollywood/Theater
- Bambi's Share A Dream

MotorCity

If you are a lost soul, searching for the meaning of life, these websites may have some suggestions for you.

Some of them, fortunately, are all in fun.
