| | | Fun websites I'm always on the lookout for fun websites that are updated regularly (ie: they offer continual entertainment, not just for one visit).
I like http://www.imdb.com and http://www.obscurestore.com
What other, regularly updated, not photo or computer-related, sites do you visit frequently for the pure joy of reading? |

| | Anyone who is a Tolkien or LOTR movie fan would like theonering.net
and...
While, it's not "updated regularly"...if you like games...have a go at this putt-putt golf Flash site! I saw it over on another board and could not stop playing until I got a very low score! (35) putt-putt |

| | | I'm glad you enjoyed the link, Mike Slocombe started the site a few years ago and its now one of the busiest in the UK and delightfully free of ads like RetouchPro. Its based on a suburb of London called Brixton which he seems to like but not my choice. Theres a couple of the boards cover computers and graphics but very broad based with a rather frequent use of colourful language!
Look out for the 'Rave dancers'.
Greg I hope Mr Insult made his thoughts known to you !!!
I'm still struggling with the bubblewrap game !!!

| | Gotta be www.howstuffworks.com for trivia and factoids. I love that stuff.
Well, I'm into mindless childish entertainment too, so...
The creator of this, Andy Foulds, has provided me with hours of amusement. Every once in a while, he adds a new one...
The Dancing Blair is my favorite (button is at the bottom of the page). Andy Foulds Pages |

| | | I'm glad you liked it, Greg. All of that stuff he does just cracks me up...
You'd think I was nuts sometimes if you could see me here, in the middle of the night, all by myself, laff'n my butt off at something on there...
(the Bushifier gave me "deretouchproally")

| | I know what you mean, Margaret. It's one of those Flash sites I've found that's worth waiting for the load. And there's a whole other part of the site besides just that fun stuff.
This guy has got to be one of the most talented and creative people I've ever run across. He's got a photograph on the site of Paris that he shot which I think is just amazingly beautiful and unique. And a Flash composite photograph of himself that just fascinates me...
Oh, and btw, Chris - he's in Brixton...  |
