Where's George

<img alt="The Electric Postcard Store" src="http://postcards.www.media.mit.edu/Postcards/PostCardPix/POButton.gif">

This is still a fun thing... Everyone loves a postcard! One of the first sites I ever visited, and the first site I ever bookmarked.

Trendy Interactive Magic

How'd they do that? Seriously, this can freak you out until you figure it out...

Welcome to MapBlast!

MapQuest! Welcome!

A map of everything on earth! Quick, too. Precisely the sort of thing you'd like to see on the internet.

The Brunching Shuttlecocks | Toys

New toys added all the time! A popular favorite: "Porn Star or My Little Pony?"

Internet Games and such

Yahoo! Games

Lots of card games, though, disappointingly, no seven card stud. The general rumor is that this site is the reason why the web surfers at Yahoo never update the Yahoo Directory anymore.

The Bingo Zone

Yeah, how fun can bingo on the web really be? But you can actually win a small sum of money, so how does that pump your crankcase?

Games Domain

They make many claims as to being the most popular Games site on the web. Maybe if they say it enough, it'll come true?

JavaGammon Home

Play a game of backgammon with someone you don't know.

COSMIC ENCOUNTER ONLINE

This is a pretty cool geeky board game, and if I had time, I'm sure I'd find it's pretty cool and geeky to play online.

Story Resources available on the Web

A list of story-related sites

(The Spider's Web) Fun and Games

A really really long list of interesting stuff on the web, either game related or (arguably) just "fun."

Welcome to Lemonade Stand

Well the game is about 20 years old, but most of the good ones are, anyway.

GHOST: Home Page

Play a word game against even more people you don't know.

THE RIDDLER HOME PAGE

Lots of expensive prizes used to go out regularly to the people who waste every waking moment on the internet solving puzzles and riddles. Now all this place is good for is a good java crossword puzzle.

Magic: The Gathering

I said it was just a fad, but then people thought the Rubik's Cube would be popular forever, too, didn't they?

Avalon: The Legend Lives

It sounds cool on paper, but I'ven't had the chance to really check it out yet.

Zarf's List of Interactive Games on the Web

This used to be the penultimate of games lists, until Java came along and made internet games easy. Still, for some reason, people copy this site for their own web pages, even though the author abandoned it years ago.

Comic Strips/Books

Beer Related

Shea and Darren's Beer Critique

Positively the most unbiased, objective viewpoints around.

THE BEER GUIDE

A large guide to beer sites on the web. Sites like this are the reason I think people like me shouldn't bother making beer link lists.

Barclays Restaurant

This is a local pub near me that rotates their beer stock through over 900 different beers and gives stuff away to members who drink enough (25 club, 50 club, 100 club, etc...)

NICHOLSON WALL OF BEER Home Page

This is a guy who, like Shea and me, seeks out beers he's never had before. The difference is that he keeps his empty bottles when he's done in his garage. He has over a thousand.

Beer Me!

Another "lush like us." He drinks and rates (over 4000 beers!), but unlike us, has fairly straight-laced reviews. He used to sell T-Shirts and CD-Roms, but somehow I guess there wasn't so much of a market.

Molecular Expressions: The Beershots Photo Gallery

Take a REALLY close look at your beer.

Bellaholics: The Heart of Intoxication

A group of sots in D.C. trying to incorporate a leisurely pasttime.

Death and dismemberment

TSD's April Fools Extreme Suspension

Do ya like babies?! Do ya like suspending from your nipple rings?!

Nuclear Blast Mapper

This was my idea! Guess I got beat to it. Check the blast radius of a nuclear explosion in your neighborhood.

Stick Figure Death Theatre

Simply beautiful.

Assassin - The Game Where you Kill Celebrities

I can't really add to that.

Church of Euthanasia Home Page

Finally a cause I can endorse... This site includes the next bookmark, a very useful essay:

Butchering the Human Carcass

The Death Clock

Are you morbid enough to appreciate a clock that counts down the number of seconds until your death?

Recent Earthquakes for SF_Bay

Natural disasters are one of my hobbies. It helps to live in California.

The Scorched Earth Party

Finally, a cause we can all get behind... Well, read their philosophy and you'll see why I'd rather be behind them than in front of them.

BME: Body Modification Ezine

Not for the queasy. Something for me to shoot for.

Autopsy How To

A neat guide on how to perform an autopsy, complete with nifty cartoons that you can watch animated!

The Darwin Awards Archive

It's good to see that someone is fact checking this stuff... Well, actually, they aren't doing a very good job catagorizing anything that happened more than a year ago.

Darwin Awards Official Home Page

This one's "OFFICIAL" which means that they didn't get the Domain Name first. Why they are official and no one else can be is beyond me, especially since the Darwin Awards has about seventeen different origins.

Marshmallow Bunny Survival Tests

How much can a spongy bunny take?

Precious moments...

As my friend Eric (who sent me this link as found by his wife, Emily) described: "Perhaps the sickest collection of photos ever published on the web. Truly disgusting and foul. It's got a bit of everything: beastiality, skin grafts, bot fly wounds, festering pustules, suicide photos."

Bitterness and Spite

The Misanthropic Bitch

Finally, someone who thinks as I do! I think I'm in love.

Cruel Site of the Day

Griper Magazine - Sex * Satire * Smarm

CynicalBastards.com

Heartless Bitches International

A bunch of loser women, most of whom have no idea what being a Bitch is all about. Take a lesson from my Misanthropic hero, chickies. If you need to make it a cheesy anagram to remember what you are, you aren't.

ANSWER Me! Archives

These guys take misanthropy way too far... I appreciate that.

MBSP: Witches, Bitches, and Crazy Ladies

Another tirade from someone who needed to be beaten over the head to get it.

Fan Sites

Ma Page de Tori Amos

There are hundreds of Tori Amos sites, but this is a good one and it'll get you started on the "Tori Ring" to find others.

A Dent In The Tori Amos Net Universe

Another Tori Amos page, but this one has a link to my Nukees comic! I didn't even tell them about it, but a week after I put it on the web, they found it! Now THESE are fans!

Tori Amos - Bootleg Discography

I think you can figure out what's here.

@Natalie: Main Page

One of many Natalie sites, but this guy seems to be the best. See if you can find my Natalie drawing.

Official Space Ghost (C2C) site

Best talk show on the planet. Too bad they had to ruin it with the "Ghost Planet" cartoon show.

Beakman's World Home Page

I just can't get interested in Beakman anymore, since his second sidekick, Liza, was replaced.

SchoolHouse Rock

Still cool, depite having been officially declared cool.

Potentially Rewarding

National Associated of Unclaimed Property Administrators

Millions of people nationwide are owed money that never got to them, like lost checks, inheiritances, refunds, etc. When the money or property can't find the person to whom it's owed, the state takes control. You can see if you are owed money in any of the 50 states on this list.

CyberGold

Now HERE, you actually get paid for going to different corporate sites. Unfortunately, there are only a few total sites for you to select from. Since you only get 50 cents to a dollar per site you can't get rich here. Usually, you have to buy something to get paid, which defeats the whole point.

$urf Pay- Get Paid To Surf The Net!

You don't really get paid, but you get entered into nebulous contests for going to web sites

HeyIdiot.com

Invest in an internet company that is guaranteed to make you money.

The Free Site

I haven't really looked around here, but it's supposed to have links to everything free they can find.

$95,093.16 made easy

How to legally make money and make powerful enemies by depositing junk mail checks.

Music, Professor!

The List

The holy word for funk-punk-thrash-ska music in the San Francisco Bay Area. Updates every week.

Concerts in the San Francisco Bay Area

Again, exactly the sort of thing I've always wanted to see on the internet. Useful free information.

OLGA (Guitar Arcive)

Now if I only owned a guitar, I could justify listing this site...

Welcome to Musicmaker

Buy CDs on the web. Pretty basic. They give a lot of web coupons and discounts and things, but unfortunately, it involves being on their mailing list.

nucast - Web Jockey

Cool idea, but I don't think it really works in practice.

MP3 Sites

I won't be providing descriptions for most of these sites, since they pop in and out of existance so quickly. It isn't worth it.

Brad's New Kick Ass Home Page

Reading is fun for mentals

Gav and Peloso's Interactive Story

My most popular site. One branching story, tens of thousands of episodes written by people just like you.

fear my pituitary

Indescribable.

Tarzan's Tripes Forever, and Other Feghoots

Hundreds of familiar stories, each described by the web site as, "a long-drawn-out circumstantial story concerning an inconsequential happening that impresses the teller as humorous but the hearer as boring and pointless." Sounds fun, don't it?

StorySprawl

A story site like mine, but where the webmaster is a much more dedicated programmer.

Literary Kicks

A non-linear examination of the heros of the Beat Generation.

The Word Wizard

Geeky word games, if I remember correctly.

Pakin's auto complaint-letter generator

For when you're mad at someone, but you really don't feel it's worth your time.

Brendan's On-Line Anagram Generator

Darren Leo Bleuel = One real dull beer.

Tales from the Vault

Another "Add-to" story site like mine, but linear.

Storytelling&WWW

A strange intellectual pursuit.

Kevin's Oddly Different Story Time

I suggest "Curious George and the High-Tension Power Line."

"New" Science

Mach's Principle and Impulse Engines

My newest scientific obsession. The origin of inertia and how you can abuse the equations of general relativity to create propellantless propulsion.

The Origin of Inertia

More of the same. I don't know why I never learned this in my physics classes. It doesn't require a knowledge of general relativity, just the equations of fundamental electromagnetics

Subject index of Alternate View columns by John G. Cramer

Never trust anyone who says they have an "alternate view," but you should always hear them out.

Robokoneko

Awesome project, the ROBOKITTEN! These guys are creating the first artificially intelligent lifeform, a robotic kitten with an evolutionarily-grown neural net brain.

Dr. Garis' Webpage

This is the guy in charge of the Robokitten, and I provide this link simply because there are no links to further information on that project from the Robokoneko page.

Break Through Propulsion Physics

This guy has a pretty cool job. He works for NASA, thinking up and researching Star Trek technology and trying to figure out what we can get away with in this universe.

Teleportation

For when you absolutely, positively need that photon on the other side of the room faster than the speed of light.

The "Einstein Hoax"

Believers in the Ether. Bizarre. Note sure if this should be under the "Conspiracies" catagory or the "Weirdness" catagory.

Conference on the Fundamental Structure and Mechanisms of the Universe

Particle Beam Physics Laboratory Quantum Information Page

Use quantum tunneling to build faster than light computers... Someday...

abstract gr-qc/9905084

A paper from Los Alamos on a warp drive that doesn't require more energy than exists in the universe.

Nikola Tesla

Okay, it's not "new" science, but this guy is my hero. He's the world's first and probably only true mad scientist, and lots of his ideas are considered "new" science today.

Geeky Stuff

3-D Starmaps

The Joy of Pi

I was very very bored in high school and memorized Pi to over a hundred digits. Idiots like me are responsible for books like this.

Seiko.com Ruputer Home Page

The "Ruputer" is an actual PC in a watch, made by (and unfortunately only for) the Japanese. It only has a 2 month long battery life, though, so it's hardly practical yet.

RLI LaserNet: LaserNet Homepage

Everything you wanted to know about lasers.

Compact Disc Technology

Speaking of lasers, this is how CDs work.

For when MegaHAL seems too cold.

Cat's-Eye Technologies: Brainf***

A damn small computer code.

99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall

Program "99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall" in 227 different programming languages. Remember that Styx song, "Too Much Time on My Hands?"

VI LOVERS HOME PAGE

I guess you have to love the Unix editor, vi, to properly appreciate such a page.

The VIM (Vi IMproved) Home Page

The editor, vi, just wasn't enough like emacs, so they made vim.

Notify CD Player for Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0

This program will search a website for titles and songlists for the serial number on your CDs, so you never have to type it in yourself.

History of Mathematics: Egyptian Math, Pi, Magic Squares, Chinese Arithmetic, Methematical World

The title says it all. I told you these were geeky sites.

Search PI

This is a GREAT feature. I don't know how we ever got along before without knowing where, precisely, our birthdays appear in the number, pi.

Computer Virus Myths home page

Everything you've ever gotten in email is made up. I can say that with 99.9% certainty. This site tells you how many of those virus warnings you're always getting aren't true. I'll give you a hint: All of them. Look for my comic strip, Nukees, on this site.

Math Jokes

Okay, NOW you know how geeky these sites are.

HyperCuber Applet

Look at a three dimensional representation on a two dimensional screen of the three dimensional shadow of a four dimensional object (a tessaract, or "hypercube").

All the experiments you can possibly think of that would involve a grape.

Art and shiny things

Don't ask me, but tell me about it if you figure it out.

Salvador Dali Art Gallery

The man was a twisted genius, which I consider redundant.

Link lists and Best/Worst ofs

Bored.Com - Have Some Fun On The Internet

A list of a few places that may or may not relieve your chronic boredom.

The Deep Hurting Webpage

A "worst of" page which my "Coke Conspiracy" site won some award on.

Conspiracies

Coalition to Ban Dihydrogen Monoxide

Scary. This chemical must be banned.

CHOAS

You don't have to join and it's not really a conspiracy. If I said any more, you'd start to think it really is a conspiracy.

HAARP

Project HAARP: The Pentagon's provocative plan to superheat the earth's ionosphere

Dysson Story, Pg.1

Now this is scary, and it was played out on a Monty Python cast member, which makes me wonder if it happened at all, which brings us back to the catagory title.

Tobacco Resolution

The sneakiest way for the tobacco companies to comply with the disclosure laws is to publish every foolscrap of nonsense ever written about cigarettes in the past 100 years.

Bert is Evil !

Well Tickle Me Elmo and call me Charlie, I knew there was some reason I never trust this muppet.

Resources for the truly gullible.

The Gallery of the Absurd

A collection of some of the funniest and strangest ads ever. I suggest going immediately to Gallery 3 and clicking on "Mouse Soup."

bOING bOING DIGITAL

Read about the "Cement Filled Teddy Bear" prank. It's probably embellished, but fun to think about screwing with retailers' minds.

Stalker tales, tips & tricks - Home of Adopt-A-Stalker!

Get your own internet stalker! Finally a referral service to match up stalkers and stalkees, instead of that inefficient random process we had before.

The Outsider/Plush Cthulhu Dolls

Hand made evil for your loved and unloved ones.

Camping Toilet....BUMPERDUMPER

The scary thing is that I think this is an actual product.

The Asylum

Started out with some real potential, but hasn't changed in years.

Time Cube

"Losing 3 Days in each Earth rotation has retarded your mentality to stupid and an Education of Evil!" Hee hee. Whose mentality has been retarded to stupid?

Personal Pages I like

Gnat Mark I v2.0

Self-described "perky goth." She might be the world's perfect girl, or incredably annoying in person. I give each 50-50 odds. Cool-ass page idea, though. If only I could really purchase one from my local Gnat Outlet Mall.

The Garden of Eden

A true geek obsessed with pi. Okay, so I may have memorized 101 digits, but she's worse!

Interesting references to my pages

Peanuts Stuff

Miscellany

FUGLY

The top 2% of the most attractive people have had their day, but who is to honor those that fall two standard deviations in the OTHER direction of the average. No tubby, skank, horseface, bloat, white trash debutante, lard ass, or sappygoth is safe from the sarcastic ramblings of Fugly.com.

I needed to sell some stuff... Still haven't, though.
