Well, it was about half way thru last week when i was trying to post
this site on the blog, but after finding it, everytime i went back, it
was down. This morn i decided to give it one last try. And it's back up
with an explanation. He's being sued.

This is a rather bizarre site & one i can't imagine ever using but i
guess the "sue-happy" American's love it !! Worth a visit ... you could
even be a juror ;)

This is an interesting one. It's a project for an art exhibition running
from 2 July - 20 August 2005. They've got a webcam set up sending live
footage of a remote Northern California forest in the hopes that it'll
catch Bigfoot.

This is a pretty incredible story. The site is all about a guy in
America who is an expert Etch-A-Sketch artist. Pretty amazing really. Be
sure to check out the gallery !!
UPDATED 01-06-2005: Now they're making Etch-a-Sketch for your mobile phone !! http://www.in-fusio.com/game_Etch_A_Sketch_115.php

Here's a guy who "pimped" his graduation cap .... and a detailed account
of how he did it, so you can too. *Unfortunately*, here in South Africa,
we don't wear these ridiculous contraptions ;)

A rather interesting blog started by an American flight attendant while
still working for Delta Airlines in Texas. I gather she was fired from
her job specifically for things posted on her blog. Quite interesting.

This is a site worth waiting for to download. This guy has set up a site
allowing the viewer to "tour" his mom's house ... she's been frantically
buying up all sorts of useless stuff on eBay and can't seen to throw a
single thing away either. Scary.

Who knew there were so many people trying to jump on the Dr Pepper wagon
?? But, if you were ever wondering just how many other beverages were
copying them & just how many "Dr" drinks there were .... then this is
the list for you.

... who probably owned a liquor store. I like this site, it's kind of
strange looking at some unknown family's photo's from the sixties, but
it truly does show how things have changed: the hair, the clothes, the
interior decorating ;) It's just interesting. And hey, maybe you'll
recognise someone in this family and they won't be unknown anymore :)

I'm not sure i can believe they made an entire site soley dedicated to
this one cell phone cover .... but it appears they did! Can't think of
many people this sort of cover would suit either :P

Bwahahahahaha. I don't believe this. Although they're clearly trying to
ensure correct use - each comes with a training CD and when you order,
one of their disciplinary technicians (could you get more politically
correct??) will decide if it is right for you! Hmmm, I think i'll stick
to good old-fashioned child disciplinary measures when the time comes !

I think these are great & could come in pretty handy when wandering the
dark streets of the night (does anyone do that anymore ??)

I think this is a fantastic site & must be really handy ... especially since there are 2 spots (if i'm lucky) that i can get reception in my house :P unfortunately it's another site only for the US.

Well, in light of South Africans having to tolerate yet another fuel
price increase (19 more cents on the 4th May 2005), i think this website
is a winner (unfortunately it is only for American & Canadian states -
but we can visit it with envy!)

Yes, that's right, I couldn't believe they put this stuff online either
!! But it's right there & you can watch it in real time. Hmmm, you'd
think after September 11th America would be a little more careful about
these things !?!?
