The Game of LifeNOT the board game. This is an online game where your choices affect who you will become. It's kind of interesting, but due to lack of time I never made it past being a baby. Give it a try.

First time I played I got kidnapped/killed also. Second time I lived to be pretty old and died of old age. I was a rich, lonely, and depressed old man though who had no one to leave his fortune to (so it went to charity).

TV-B-GONE"Safe. Effective. Fun. TURNS OFF VIRTUALLY ANY TELEVISION!" ...Or so they claim. Internet Anagram ServerYou can type in a word/name/phrase and this handy thing will try to find all possible combinations of anagrams. It's kind of interesting. Check it out. Jail Cam"This is a real life transmission of the Anderson County Sheriff's Department." It's the desk where people are "booked." So far all I've seen, though, is a guy sitting behind the desk on the phone and playing around on the computer. Zzzzzz. But who knows what YOU might see! Urban Legends Refrence PageThis site has been around for ages and most of you probably already know of it, but it's always good to go back and check it out occasionally. If you haven't been here before, it has information on hundreds (if not thousands) of urben legends and gives you the real scoop behind them (whether or not they're true, sometimes how they got started, etc). For example, Is Microsoft Marketing the iLOO, a toilet with Internet capabilities? Check it out.

That's the spirit! You try out for your position and make the STARTING TEAM. In the ninth inning, a high pop fly is hit directly to you. You thrust out your glove in an attempt to field the ball. The excitement of the play fills your whole body...
The ball THUNKS solidly into the glove, knocking you off-balance. Your heart is beating furiously from the thrill of making the play. You feel happy and carefree, just like a child again. Suddenly, the field begins to fade and turn black.
The last thing you see are players from both benches running out to greet you for making such a great play. Something's wrong. You can't run toward them. Your body and hands won't respond to your wishes, but instead of feeling frustration, you feel great peace. How you only wish you could have said good-bye.
You have died.
I FINALLY finished this effing thing. OMG. I wrawk. I am free of its all powerful hold on me.

38 StatesSome guy wants to redraw the way the US looks so that there's only 38 states. Why? "The practicality of old established State lines is questionable in light of America's ever-growing cities and the increasing mobility of its citizens." The 50 most important games ever made"The Essential 50 is not intended to be a comprehensive history of gaming. Nor is it a list of the best games of all time -- in fact, some of these games are the very worst ever created (which is why they're important). Rather, The Essential 50 is a look at the games which we feel have made gaming what it is today. " Catch BTKYou would almost swear this was a movie, but it's not. It's real. In the 1970's there were a string of murders by a guy they couldn't catch. They nicknamed him "BTK" for "Blind Torture Kill" (what he did to his victims). In the 80's they think he stopped/retired/disappeared/died/whatever. But just last year they started receiving packages and letters from him with proof that it was the same guy. Now, a year later, they are STILL receiving packages/letters from the guy almost on a regular basis. This site is documentation of everything you'd want to know about the case that has been going on since the 70's. This site (and the story) really interests me and I try to follow it pretty regularly. It'll be interesting if they ever catch the guy. Edit: If you want a "quick glance" look at the case, Wikipedia is your friend.

It's Star Wars parody night! Star Wars Episode III: A Lost HopeA SW 3 parody trailer. It's down-right hilarious. Some parts are extra cheesy, but who cares? They're funny. Best dialog: Obi-wan: The boy's pure dire-nasty evil. Windu: Uh-huh. YOU THINK? Yoda: (sigh) Warned you we tried. Listen, you did not. Now screwed we all will be. Runner up: Emperor: *pulls out a piece of paper with a circle drawn on it (the death star)* I've been working on this for some time. Vader: *looks at it, looks back at the Emperor* ...a booby? Emperor: No! It's a battle station. I call it the "Sphere O' Fear" (off Vader's look) .... or... "Planet Death." ... "The Killing Ball" ? "Death Moon!" "Giant Hurt Ball!!" "The DEATHticule.." Also, here's a scene they had to cut. Troops"While being filmed for the hit Imperial TV show TROOPS, Stormtroopers from the infamous Black Sheep Squadron on patrol run into some very familiar characters. " This one is pretty old in comparison to the one above, but it's still one of the funniest SW parodies out there. Check it out.
