Vistars Weird Site of The Day. Archive #1

A Big Ol' Neely Welcome... ha ha! Look what's become of our Premiere pick for the Weird Site of the Day? Grumble. Grumble. This used to be a warm and cordial "Welcome to Neely, NC... Just a tobacco spit away from Reidsville." But not anymore. They've up and gone big city on us. The Neely Chronicle was *once* cute as a squashed bug. It -used to- cover just about everything cept the Budweiser plant. (See. I've really been there :) And I just might go back and convince 'em to go back to being free.
Piercing Mildred If you are offended by folks biting fingernails, you won't like this at all. Here's a game dedicated to body modification, studs in noses, tongues, a new kind of ear plug, etc. (Also one of six sites needed to win a trip to Jamaica.) Wonder if they'd accept you with a navel ring?
Totally bat sh-t If you build it... they will come. Wanna bet? This guy built a bat house. Made it all cozy, but no bats in his belfry, yet. No matter. There's more stuff on bats here than you can possibly comprehend.
Give em a hand. Or sell em one rather. Ever feel like a one-armed paper hanger? Here's where you can get an extra arm, a leg up, etc.
Hollywood Sign (live camera) After driving up to Griffith Park Observatory so my daughter could see the Hollywood sign, this site becomes more valuable. It's not worth the drive and hardly worth the click.
BOFH Homepage The rantings of a vindictive system support service desk operator. (Don't try his solutions on your own computer.)
Backyard Ballistics Killer site. Actually, my son introduced me to this. The Spud Gun is amazing.
All I Knows About Nose Sorry, just couldn't resist it. This is a silly page about facial appendages.
George Goble's page Did you know Purdue offered an engineering degree in pyrodynamics? Neither did I. But, wait til you see what this guy uses to start his Bar BQ grill.
Meet Bacon This sounds more like a breakfast menu than a pet lovers page. But, what the heck, different strokes for different folks.
Hillary's Hair (Sorry.. you missed this one.) You just knew this was coming. Here's a site dedicated to the first hair. If you're a Republican... this may be the hair of the dog that bit-cha.
Bureau of Atomic Tourism Whatever happened to the underground test sites? They are now tourist attractions. Very illuminating. (Is that a glow in your cheeks or are you just glad to see me?)
Cow Fact of the Day (stupid subscription service) (All gone now.) Couldn't pass this up. Do you know how many squirts are in a pail of milk? Like you could care. I sure don't. This is bazarre. Webaholic Support Group If you, like me, are ready to walk up to the lectern and announce, "Hi, my name is Vistar and I'm a webaholic," this is the applause you've been waiting for.
Webaholic Support Group If you, like me, are ready to walk up to the lectern and announce, "Hi, my name is Vistar and I'm a webaholic," this is the applause you've been waiting for.
Lite Brite Masterpiece Gallery This is an oldie but goldie. In fact, maybe the first place I visited on the web in late 1994. Once you've created your own masterpiece, it will be archived forever and ever. Kinda like your own WWW tombstone.
Mr. Spud Head (Slight variation from the original due to trademark violations.) Now, you can see how attractive you'd look wearing a rubber nose and glasses.
Capt. Kirk Sing-a-long I hate Star Trek. I disliked William Shatner in the TV series and even in his Bassett Furniture commercials. So, natch... I loved this page.

Many thanks to Callie for this great site.
CNN Spoof Story of the Day (They tried to hide this but we found it.) Question: "How many lawyers does it take to file a suit?" Let's find out. This little page will bring em outta the wordwork. It's a classic.
World Domination Review The official "Journal of Amateur Paranoia". I love the 'pave the planet' poster. Time to buy stock in an asphalt company. Many thanks to J. Van Epps for the contribution.
Spontaneous Human Combustion What a way to go. This unusual case occurred in 1951. To this day, it has yet to be disproved.
Globsters Here's info on the yucky things that wash up on the beach you hope your dog doesn't drag home.
Skin Flicks Hey, wait! It's not what you think. This is dermatology in the cinema. So, trust me. There's a lesion to be learned here.
Get Naked/Nude! (The picked site is history.. so here's a cool substitute.) "Don't you know the difference between 'naked' and 'nude'?", an online friend once asked. Photographer, Spencer Tunick, addresses this pressing question.
Breast Enlargement by Hypnosis IMHO, one of the all-time classic scams. Now on the Net. I'd also like to have a million bucks, so I maybe if I concentrate *real* hard... No, wait. Rev. Ike can do that.

[Many thanks to Bettybb for contributing this jewel.]
Instant Complaint Generator Here ya go... a way to get rid of aggression and dress down someone who's bugging you. Great tension relief is just a couple paragraphs away.
Ask the Wizard Similar to the Magic 8 Ball and just as intelligent. :-)
:-y More Smiley Faces Than You Can Tolerate Pick a Smiley and have at it.
The Worst Vacation Spots in the USA Vagabond zine takes you to the cheesiest places in America.
.
Dead People Server Ever been talking about some famous celeb person only to have your bud say, "Dude, Elvis has been dead for years." Never mistake the dead for alive again with this handy identifier.
Tampax Laughs Tampax pokes fun at their own pesky little applicator tubes. Thank goodness they aren't string savers.
Billyace Place Ahhh. Now we're getting back to the page theme. This one is plenty weird and deserves recognition. (Nice balls.)
The Official Nerdity Test The official test is copyrighted and currently unavailable. This version is even better. Answer a bunch of real easy (Yup. NOT!) questions and see how far you go beyond my pathetic 47.7%.
The Ferndale Experiment Four subjects agree to share the most intimate aspects of their lives in an online therapy experiment.
For Sale: LazyLake, FL Total city for just $15 million. You can be mayor and police chief. Gosh, such a deal. I'll take two.
Ferret Frenzy Boneless fun at high speeds. Place your bets.
Stark's Museum of Vacuum Cleaner Art This really sucks for a cool site.
Twinkies Experiments Ahhh. Based on flavor alone, you knew these were meant to be an alternative fuel source.
Squashed Bug Zoo Looky, looky, looky. Here's how to put your flatbed scanner to good use. Breda Rae's Homepage You'ins setcha down a spell. This har ad-vice 'll hep ya.
What's Cooking? Yummmm. Traditional Slovenian recipes. SCTV revisited. Includes pronunciation guide to help you say, "Beef Hearts" with flare.
Get Bent Only your chiropractor knows for sure. And Chubby Checker thinks he can twist. HeeHee :)
Office of Human Radiation Experiments Duck and cover. Brings back memories of civil defense exercises in grammar school. Makes the X-Files look tame.
The Summum Religion Okay, you wanted weird... this is very weird.
Toys for Big Boys Wanna buy a used submarine?
Sea Monkey Worship Any further description is unnecessary.
Walt. The Urban Legend Walt Disney... frozen... no way.
Stare Down Sally There several stare games on the net. Most are pretty lame. This one is very well done, even though Sally's rigged. You don't think this is a clever marketing tactic for Clear Eyes do you? Nah, they wouldn't do that. (They aren't that bright.)
The Bumble Ball Gallery There are a lot of things you may associate with a bumble ball, but Baby's First Vibrator is probably not among them. It looks like a kidney stone to me.
Death Row Writings and Art Dean writes and Bill paints. Both are inmates on Death Row at California's San Quentin Prison. I wondered how they got computer access, then figured that they have supporters on the outside.
Dead Presidents' Graves Here's a bit of U.S. history -- stuff you rarely get on school field trips. I've seen Kennedy's grave in Arlington. What can I say? It was a grave and there were a lot of people there. This site can save a lot of travel and you won't miss a thing.
The Taxonomy of Barney One of the best parts of this job is being able to browse the Net. Lots of cool sites are found through links. (No s*it.) Well, this one is worth playing with. Wanna test your cruising skills? Can you find the chemical formula for K-Y lubricant from this silly Barney-bashing page?
Learning to Read Tarot If you have a Tarot deck, here's a step by step guide to opening the package and maybe doing something useful with it. If you don't have a Tarot deck, this site can help you tell if you're being fed hocus pocus. Honestly, it would be a lot easier to just pinch yourself as a quick reality check.
Exploding Whale Having heard about this site for some time, I just had to go look. Well, what else can be done with 30,000 pounds of rotting whale flesh? Hmmm. You could feed all the pelicans in the Pacific Northwest, or have the biggest mammal fry in the history of the American Legion. (What you would never think of doing is a web page showing a whale of an explosion.)
Huh?? Walking the fine line between clever and stupid, this one passes the sobriety test. (Hey, it was all just fun and games 'til it got serious. Now, someone could lose an eye.)
Pooh Goes Apeshit There are a couple children's stories that give me great satisfaction 'cause I'm pretty certain there's hidden meaning. Alice in Wonderland and Winnie the Pooh are my favorites. Here's a new twist on the real Pooh behind the story.
First Church of Simba The first in a series (just two) of zoo pages, this one is way off center. If you thought Disney's The Lion King was just a kid's movie... think again, and then consider this net creation.
The Paranoid Cableman This one is so crazy. A genuine time waster... and this is the perfect week for it. Most everyone is focused on the coming July 4th weekend.
Church of the Mac Evangelist I find this site to be entirely offensive and a challenge to my Unitarian training in tolerance. So, to all my PC buddies, don't worry, Daddy still loves you.

Thank you Carla... you poor, misguided soul.
The 386 Support Group If you have a 5-1/4" floppy in an older PC, this could be for you. It is definately biased toward DOS users providing ammunition to stand up against those giant Pentium beasts.
Armadillo Crossing! Armadillos are heavily armored, very slow moving creatures found in the southwestern U.S. They have few natural predators and eat a variety of bugs. If it weren't for Kenworth trucks, they'd probably be spread throughout the country instead of just all over the southbound lane.
Miraculous Winking Jesus There was so much flak about the NunBun commentary, you'll have to form your own opinion here. (Hint... it really IS a miracle :)
The Shrine of Bazooka Joe There was a lot of wisdom inside those gum wrappers. Somehow, this brings back images of summer.
Our Button Box Look up "anal retentive" in the dictionary. There will be an icon for this page. If the welcome page doesn't make your eyes spin, try the Not Buttons link.

Thanks to Elizabeth for contributing this site. Yes, I REALLY like rice.
Gothic Babe of the Week Dark lipstick and heavy black eyeliner become fashion statements for what's left of the nineties. This is a most unusual pin-up parade.
Mannequin Lovers Ummm. This is a real weird one. I worked in a dept. store after college. Given the choice, I'd rather be a model for male facials than have to dress a mannequin. It's a very odd feeling. I could never live with one even though they eat little and are generally very neat.
Pot Bellied Men Yes, they do work their butts off. I'm laughing so hard, it's a struggle to type.
The Onion Here is the 18 June issue packed with stories like: Susan Unger to Free Tibet, and Alzheimer's Sufferers March on Random Buildings. Stuff you won't see in the TIMES.
Gallery of the Absurd Continuing along the absurd path, here are a few reminders of National Lampoon's Photo Funnies. If your eyebrows rise as you pass Cream of Wheat�on the grocer's shelf, you'll love this.
Museum of the Absurd--China Edition China is a big country with big absurdities. Partially due to a language that struggles with abstract concepts. And partially due to our Western viewpoint that cannot see the seriousness in Chinese concerns. Hey, order is necessary. 1.2 Billion people running in different directions would be madness.
Toaster Museum Foundation This should be called 'Inspiration for Auto Designers.' Few objects are as pleasing to the eye (and to the senses) as an automatic toaster. So, bring your favorite PopTart�or a bagel and enjoy.
A Magic Trick Pick a card, any card. It makes no difference which one. The results turn out the same. Neat trick.

Thanks to Irradiate for the contribution.
Mr. Cereal Box Another rare glimpse into the private life of a netster. And what a career path it is. It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it.
Peeling-is-Everything This was a winner before I even looked at it. Peeling is just a great word. Peeling out, peeling skin, peeling clothes, Emma Peel... and then there's this page. Leave it to a Brit to think of it.
DOS Prompt Remember when the big joke was, "Have You seen the blue dot?" Let's start a new pass-along... have you seen the DOS prompt? This is so stupid. Please send me a better page, quick.

And of course, thanks Dave, for sharing this.
Cannibals Anonymous Ummm. This is real tasteful. NOT! It seemed pretty complete, but overlooked Alfred Packer. He wasn't first, but was prolly the most infamous of all forbidden meat eaters.
Ebonics Translator We had a site similar to this that went KaPoof !, as websites are known to do. Hope this one stays up for a while. We need to be bi-lingual... and in the U.S., Ebonics is the best bet. (We're just so darn cultured :)
Amazing Relationship Problem Solver If Big Blue can be the world chess champ, solving the most complex human problems online can't be far away.

Gracias Mario
Trash Cans of Disney Woo! I must be living right. What a lucky find. Authored by a real custodian from within the Disney empire
Write My Essay Every teacher's nightmare. Like an online fraternity file cabinet. Described as for research purposes only. Vistar's eye roll at that.
Safety Education for Modern Youngsters Wow! Flashbacks to 5th grade and Coronet filmstrips. Totally retro. Totally hilarious. Totally damaged.
Kevin's Plan for World Domination From the same guy who took you inside a missile silo comes this nifty strategy. Mostly hot air, but some novel thoughts. BTW, be sure to check out all of Kevin's work. If there was an award for someone with too much time on his hands, this guy would win hands down.
Virtual Pet Cemetery You've tried confessing, applied for a cyber-divorce, and still no relief. Looks like it's time to bury your "Pet".
Cyber-Divorce So confessing didn't work? You still feel guilty as sin. Maybe you should consider getting a divorce? This site is so convenient, there's no need to go to Vegas.
Confession Is Good For The Soul Summer is almost here and odds are you'll wind up with sand in your britches. Here's the place to unload your indiscretions.
Russian Amputee Women At first I thought this was a simple translation error, but nope. It's for real. I think it's noble that such a service exists, but very different too.
Capt. Canada Great page, eh? A good look at the hoser, eh? I gave this site five points on a Hudson Bay blanket scale.
Grossology Why is it I never had a teacher like this? I could have had full credit for earwax candles as a science project.
Dedicated to Q-Tips Have you ever had a little itch in your ear and gone scrounging for a Q-Tip? Don't. Never put anything smaller than your elbow inside your ear. (But I do. A Q-Tip inserted inside my ear canal triggers a cough reflex. Maybe it's a message from God.)
Elvis Was Just a Shell The King's hairdresser shares memories of the singer's final do. (I can't begin to imagine the scene described.)
Hands Across the Internet Shoot. You meet the greatest people on the Internet. Here, the master of all webmasters asks you to affirm your love of being connected. Gosh, Dave. You never fail to amaze me :)
CIA Gadget Museum Really amazing toys for real spies. Agent Q would love this collection of dangerous and deceitful tools for the intelligence gathering professional.
Tour a Missile Silo Holy liquid propellant, Batman! This looks like a radiation intensive site. Looking at the pictures, it sure resembles just outside North Sioux City, South Dakota. The actual location is a secret. Just ask anyone at Gateway2000.
Forgotten TV Shows Here's a voyage under the sea of TV clutter back to the good ol' shows that should never have been made. 'Get Christie Love', 'The Joy of Living with Reverend Ike'. Many more. It's disappointing that 'I Believe in Miracles' didn't make the cut.
Microbe Zoo Lonely? Not really. You're surrounded by millions of cute little microbes in your carpet and ductwork. Just imagine what's all over your hair and skin.
Bureau of Missing Socks I spend sleepless nights worrying about this. Where did they go? The Polos? The YSL's? A busy director/producer looks for culprits.
Stump Fever This sight is so strange, I didn't know where to begin. This portal is about folks who think having a leg removed is a religious experience.
The Celestine Prophecy Debate Kenneth Moyle provides an opportunity to view both sides of the issue. He's obviously in the anti-CP camp, but does allow a little dissent... very little.
Red Meat Comic Strip Mommy, Mommy. This is a mean ol' comic strip. (Reminiscent of Zap! Comix from 30 years ago.)
Jackalope Conspiracy Biggest mistake I made in college out in Denver was not buying at least one good Jackalope mounting. Back then, they were about 50 bucks. Now, you can't get a decent mounting for under $300.
Mouth Jewelry Hobo Humpin' Slobo Babe has em. Maybe you do too? This site makes having tinsel teeth cool.
Meatmation^TM Inspiration for butcher shop display designers. Yummy Yummy
Bunny Survival Tests What to do with your Easter bunny? (Do not conduct these experiments in your microwave. Use someone else's)
Potted Meat Tribute If you were raised in a suburb, you are probably familiar with these tasty treats. Right about now, I'd love a bite of deviled ham.
Spoofs! Step right up. Choose your spoof. No waiting. Lot's of creative work here. (I like LOL/AOL myself.)
The Purple Abyss Barney horror stories. Lots of Barney horror stories. Real scary Barney stories. Ah oooo!

Thanks, Thom. Good contribution.
Virtual Fooles Troupe And now a trip 500 years back in time to visit Babbel. {Site author's note: He has a slick tongue! (Various Ladies' Comments: Yes!) Oh, my :}
A. Adnob Unusual Portraits Lots of truly unusual stuff here. Many pieces of very odd original art are provided as free wallpaper, icons, buttons, etc. This is mighty strange stuff.
What Does Your Phone Number Spell? I guess if their phone number spelled "satanic" Proctor & Gamble would want to know. Check out all the numbers in your life for hidden messages.
Newt Gingrich, eat my dinner! I know this is a homemade link, but figured you'd forgive me. They're talking money here at a level that is truly unbelievable. And I don't even get to sleep in the Lincoln bedroom.
Manhattan Spectral Phenomenon Paranormal sighting log from New York City. Millions of people must leave some lurking souls. Special thanks to H. Coale for the tip on this site.
Fish Cleaning Gallery Visit this with an empty stomach. It has everything but the smell. Perhaps it's true. EVERYTHING is now on the net.
Dept. J When you own the ball, you can make the rules. I vowed there'd be no commercial sites on this list, but I've slipped a few times (so stone me). This one for Jolt Cola is too weird to be missed. If you don't know Jolt, you must live in California. Jolt is probably outlawed there ;)
Telemarketer Tormenting Techniques And I quote, "To say this site stands in opposition to telemarketing and e-mail spams would be like saying the Pope is mildly perturbed by Satanists." - The Net Magazine
Tax Day 1997 Anyone who knows me also knows April 15 is the day to stay away. I hate to waste anything. Sending money to the U. S. Govt. so they can throw it away really jerks my chain. The whole system stinks. Here are just a few examples of the abuse of power that goes along with a government run amuck.
Igpay Atinlay Translator I'm so tired of hearing how Americans are so parochial, how we are so limited by speaking only one language. Everyone I know speaks two. (What? There's a whole generation who can't speak Pig Latin?) Okay, we ARE so parochial. Big deal.
Special Bonus: View this page in Pig Latin Or, convert a URL into this cool language.
So Many Uses for WD-40 If you're like I am, there are at least a dozen cans of WD-40 sitting around your home. My addiction to WD-40 began about the same time folks began to frown upon using gasoline as a cleaner, herbicide, and flavor enhancer. Jim and Tim, the Duct Tape guys, created this site.
Worm World Noodles make a nice set-up for today's site full of yummy worms, worm wisdom and worm art.
Ramen Noodles May Save The Planet! What to do when you're broke but brilliant? Well, you can gaze into your noodle dinner and contemplate the significance of the only food you can afford.
Uncle Roy's Watermelon Patch This one is incredibly tasteless, redneck, and misspelled (I should talk)... plus, it's 47 pages long and redundant as Hell. So, this is a terrific weird site of the day.
Illustrated Guide to Breaking Your Computer WARNING! Practicing computer-destruction too frequently can endanger yourself and others, as well as your job.
Virtual Voodoo Doll Is there someone you'd like to make a point with? This is for those who want to wish on their worst enemy.
Heaven's Gate Heaven's Gate. Their home page. (Two mirrored sites.) What could be stranger? Happy travels spacey people.
School for Sacred Geometry I always knew there was weirdness in Waynesville, NC, but this is a little beyond expectation.

Thanks, David. You don't really think UFOs tag along with comets do you?
What to do with AOL disks? Here's a great idea. I wonder about the nutritional value of magnetic disk media, but Mark looks pretty healthy to me.
Barbie's Incomplete History of Art Oh, wow! This is a five star site. Great production value, originality, warped actually :)
Do-it-yourself Trepanation Enjoy all the benefits of having a 'third eye'. This site is anything but boring.
.
Virtual Tenement House Tour an East Side walk-up as it was in the 1930s. Learn what life was like for American immigrants.
Yo Momma More 'Yo Momma' jokes than you'd care to imagine.
Great God Contest In the spirit of religious war, put your God up against the others and see how He does.
Heather Has Two Mommies Oh, boy (young male person), does the patience-challenged female ever. And one is politically correct. What a hoot (owl mating call).
Redneck Gal's Reader This is such a great page, I moved it up here so it won't be forgotten.
Ghost Stories From The Net Haunted student dorms, spooky CPUs and a bunch of other scary stuff that should have been on SCTV.

Woo! Thank you, Susan. You're the best!
The Official Spork Page First there was Spam and then there was the spork. Find out the history of the popular cybertool.
Geek Love Connection I still haven't found Waldo in the page sited below, so figured maybe I'd have better luck finding someone here. This is a mix and matchmaker thingie.
Where's Waldo? Arrrgh! Where the heck is Waldo anyway? This page has hidden Mr. Geeky Dressed (Awarded 1990) so thoroughly, darned if I can find him. Maybe it's a hoax?
Addicted to Stuff This is the all-time string saver's page. Eclectic collections of this and that. Very neat stuff.
Coolest Host Names Here's a list of fun, unusual and off-color host names. Kinda like cyberage vanity license plates.
Paul's Refrigerator Oh, boy. This is an example of how high technology can be abused. This is half amazing and all useless.
Auto Carnage As Detroit continues work on developing a totally recyclable 'green car', this page's author reminds us of the visual blight of decaying roadsters. }
The Crayon Gallery I don't know about you, but I have boxes full of really old, really bad grammar school Crayon drawings. Here's a gallery where you can display all your fine works of art. Special thanks to David Carvell for coming up with this great idea. Mom thanks you, too.
It Takes a Team to Fly a Plane I'm not sure exactly how to describe this, but it's one of the cleverest pages I've seen and not even signed. I'd like to thank the author, but don't know how. So, I'll thank Robert G. for the site nomination. RG, if you created the page, well done :)
Vegemite Temple I was shocked. I was certain whoever packaged Granny's Cod-liver Oil was doing Vegemite. Then, woah! Low and behold... Vegemite is a Kraft Foods-Australia product. I love Kraft stuff, especially Velveeta and CheezWiz. Go figure.
Lonster's Figlet Server This is a real departure... something useful. A figlet is an ASCI design in *F*rank, *I*an and *G*lenn's LETters.
Moist Towelette Collecting Many of us collect soaps from hotel rooms. A few keep shower caps and the little matchbook sewing kits... but, moist towelettes?
Special thanks to M. Lewis of FL for this one.
8-Track Heaven If you get a tear in your eye when you hear tape hiss, wow and flutter... this is for you.
Fat City News Actually, I had another site in mind. Then Sheila emailed this in. Sheila wins. Fun stuff :)
Microwave Art What to do with all those leftovers. After you've maxed out on turkey and cranberry sauce, here's a great use for the rest.
Why I Hate Turkey Although not weird, this little piece kinda summarizes a typical Thanksgiving holiday weekend in the U.S. Have a happy Turkey Day.
Sell Your Soul Your soul has material value and these folks are buying. Make them an offer.
American Roadside Attractions I'm still looking for a good lawn ornaments page, meanwhile, here's something close.
Can Fetish This one's for you, Mich! Evidence that there IS a new fetish everyday. This one I worry about.
Psychic Thesis Topics Proof that it is not necessary to be sane to be granted an advanced degree.
Alberta UFO Research Still more oddities from the Great White North. Crop circles? Or a haunted Lawn-Boy? Find out, now.
Reindeer Raisins Just in time for holiday gift giving, here's the perfect idea for someone special.
RMS Titanic: The People on the Ship All about the passengers and crew. It's weird to do this. Like reading bios of aircrash victims.
Bettie Page Tribute Bob Hope's number one heart throb... and you'll see why. Great content, poor typography... but look who's talking.
Excretion Tips This one comes to us from Thailand. Suggestions for healthy positioning as we do our duty. Thanks to J. Cravitt for the health info.
Become a Minister Enjoy all the tax advantages and parking privileges extended to the clergy. One stop ordination.
Madonna Inn After browsing the site below, only one thing came to mind... the Madonna Inn. I searched the Net and there it was. The cheesiest motel in America. This is beyond belief and the pictures hardly do it justice, but you'll get the idea.
Understanding Liberace Understanding Liberace is like trying to understand the cultural history of Americana, lawn ornaments, and gingerbread house trim.
Kook's Museum Frankly, I don't know how I missed this. It's a classic and a whole afternoon's worth of really odd stuff.
Color Therapy Warm hues won't make ya feel blue. If you've been picking your way through this list, you're ready for help. Within the web, this is the closest you can get to aroma therapy.
Strange Patents As the son of a patent lawyer, I find this funny. But, then, I am also easily amused. Oh, and there's a contest here. Send in your favorite actual wacky patent and maybe you'll win an electric nose blower. (Wouldn't that suck?)
Write Your Epitaph "Here lies Vistar. No one called him Mistar." You get the idea.
Bob Dole Movie Reviews I took a couple good shots at Clinton, so here's equal time for Dole. Just remember, it's the VOTING that counts. So, go out and do it.
Find the Beagles Sending mail to God is a hard act to follow. So, this one provides comic relief. It's completely meaningless. Right up there with "Where's Waldo". Okay, now that I've sucked you in, go look at it.
Send a Prayer to God This interesting site allows you to write a message to God. The note will be downloaded and placed in the Kotel (the Western Wall) in Jerusalem. Make it a good one. It will receive lots of attention.
Payphone List Add the phone number of your boss or the professor who gave you an "F" a few years ago. Write an intriguing description like, "Payphone inside the Yankees' dressing room," and the purpose of this site recommendation becomes crystal clear.
Burrito Fortunes Build a burrito 'your way' and receive a free psychoanalysis.
Punch Rush A violent little anti-Rush page just in time for pre-election frustration relief.
Ovi's World of the Bizarre Stories too weird to be faked. No writer has this kind of imagination. Only mutant human beans could pull these stunts.
Angels And Dolphins Show Your Future This one is evidence that it's real hard to get a ticket to Heaven. In fact, without Netscape 3.0, the site is a hoot as it gets smaller and smaller. It's supposed to reveal your destiny. I guess mine is to keep getting sillier and sillier. Smaller would be okay, too.
Name That Bug A very self-serving page appealing to bug fanciers... not hotel guests.
Museum of Dirt This is too weird. When I saw Hugh Grant's name in here, well, I thought "dirt". But, it's dirt dirt.
Oceania... My New Country Serious project to create a new country in the middle of the Caribbean. I wanna live there :)
Clickable Anthony And I thought I had found all the weird pages. Heck, this list doesn't scratch the surface. Now, go tickle Anthony and have a good chuckle.
Dole/Kemp*96 Site I am opposed to mixing politics with entertainment, but this site has all the bells and whistles. Not bad for a really old geezer.
Church of the Subgenius Until I saw this page, I never pictured myself as a cult leader. (One sec while I adjust my medals.) Definately works for me. All about BOB.
Virtual Lavalamp We did the mood ring, so must give equal time to this great symbol of the Sixties. Bad knews though... they're back, so the real ones may be worthless as antiques. (What a concept... Lavalamps as valuable relics... No way!)
3D Magic Stereograms I may be silly, but I'm not stupid. I can see this emperor has no clothes. Email me if you can see anything in these graphics. Okay?
Lip Balm Anonymous Suzy Chapstick was a pusher. Nah! Hey, I know some lip balm abusers. I've dreamed about a few flavors on favorite lips. I panic if a stick isn't in my pocket. Well, okay, maybe Suzy was a mob boss.
The Virtual Llama I figured this would be a deep religious experience. But, the sunglasses don't seem to fit. (What?... Oh... Lama... I get it. So, umm never mind.)
Mushroom Heaven An all-important guide to indentifying cool mushrooms vs. evil mushrooms, because if you mess up, you'll be in deep mushroom growing medium.
Virtual Mood Ring Leave it to a radio station to do this one. Are you in the mood for love, dear? Sorry, the ring has a head ache, is cutting its toe nails.. and/or is on its way out the door.
Cow Tipping I should pretend I have no clue what this is about. Actually, it explains a lot. Solves the mystery of upside down cows on ball caps.
Improve Your Body Each year, Halloween gets more like Xmas. Best to shop early. Here's a great starting place. (I'd grin, but my gums no longer hold my teeth in.)
Typhoid Mary's Asylum This is the darkest, most depressing, blackest page I have found. Just the perfect place to make you so glad you became Net connected.
Skipping Stones If George Washington really tossed a silver dollar across the Potomac River, he must have known the secrets shared on this North American Stone Skipping Association page.
Julia Child's Speaks Her Mind Everyone's favorite Granny figure blows your mind with some really raunchy observations. (Well, even the Galloping Gourmet had his saucy side.)

Archive #1 of the best sites of the week. These are the oldest (first) archived sites of the week, when it all began back in August of 1996. They are so old it is amazing any of these links still work.
