This site has a lot of cool TV shows and movies for free: www.hulu.com. You can embed them on your own site, too. It seems pretty cool so far.

Thanks Tom. You're the bomb.

And for you Mathias, this site is similiar to the football one I just posted.

Both are easy to navigate, which is why I like them.

If you are a football fan and into some quick stats, this is a great site. You can type in any player's name and get career and season stats, plus info on teams year-to-year records.

I saw this site posted on another blog a few days ago, and it’s great: http://www.archive.org/index.php. You can watch streaming videos and download movies that are in the public domain – including some great older movies.

All you have to do is search for a classic movie title (usually up through the early sixties) and just watch what they have. There’s some great classics by Alfred Hitchcock and the like, and some awful movies like “Santa Clause Conquers the Martians.” It’s a fun mix.

If you dig cool classic cars

I love www.thesmokinggun.com, too. If you're ever curious about court or celebrity news, this is a good place to get news of the weird.

This is a pretty cool Web site. I wish I could take credit for finding it, but I read about it on the Entertainment Weekly blog (http://popwatch.ew.com). The site is www.liveplasma.com. You can type in an artist, band, movie, director or actor, and the site will "map" it for you. It’s a pretty cool function that lists similar artists/movies/etc. to the one you typed in. It’s even got some lesser-known bands and movies mapped. It’s a fun diversion for at least a few minutes. I went from the Beatles to The New Kids on the Block by way of Outkast and "Music from the ‘James Bond’ film series."

I don't know...have never tried it. I would have to say if I was going to try it I may consider a little more snow and a few less rocks.

Dizzying at first, but wow!

Dizzying at first, but wow! I might want to try that. Is it difficult to ski-glide?

Ok, I was surfing around a Snowmobile forums that I like to visit...since there is no SNOW to go out and play on. I came across this video of a downhill skier that you have to see to believe. May be the coolest thing I have ever seen.

He has the camera mounted to his helnet....at least I hope he has a helmet on.

I got a 115!
This is my decade, apparently.

Rhonda and I worked on it

Ray Sandey — Fri, 08 Dec 2006 11:19:13 -0600

Rhonda and I worked on it together (cheating, I know) we got a 75.5. We lost some points because we spelled Jessie wrong for Jessies girl. (we spelled it Jesse). And in one other we had dance instead of danced. We'll take them for the team.

It was funny listening as we trying to sing the songs.

Really awesome Web sites!!!!!!!!

What are your favorite Web sites? I'm looking for innovative ideas for this Web site. (And I kind of like to be amazed and awed anyway.)
