all kinds of documentation on what was found when king tutankhamuns tomb was opened. some pics as well as scans of howard carters notes. theres a list of stuff that will be online eventually, including maps and sketches. fascinating stuff.

The Gaping Maw's Big Book of Sign Language

Riotously funny for the unoffendable. Mildly funny for the offendable.

The next Mahir/All Your Base may have arrived

This thread on an English football club's fan board started out as a simple rant by a scorned ex-girlfriend. Thanks to the global nature of the Internet, it didn't remain that way for long.

Accusations are flying about promiscuity, adultery, strains of hepatitis, goat-shagging, homosexuality, and the worst sin of all -- being a Luton fan.

Check it out here.

<a href=http://www.peppers.com>Peppers</a> - online presence of the best damn hot-pepper shop I know of (home base: Rehoboth Beach, Delaware).

Hot sauces, salsas, jerk marinades, BBQ sauces, thai, curry, chutney, chili mixes, chile-marinaded vegetables, and other edibles designed to fry your taste buds beyond recognition (and a bunch more designed for mere mortals to consume).

<table border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" style="background-color: #fff; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica; font-size: 10px"><tr><td colspan="2">You are <b><span style="color: #090">55%</span></b> geek</td></tr><tr><td valign="top"><img src="http://www.thudfactor.com/images/geekquiz/boy_50x75.jpg" height="170" width="120"></td><td valign="top">You are a geek. Good for you! Considering the endless complexity of the universe, as well as whatever discipline you happen to be most interested in, you'll never be bored as long as you have a good book store, a net connection, and thousands of dollars worth of expensive equipment. Assuming you're a technical geek, you'll be able to afford it, too. If you're not a technical geek, you're geek enough to mate with a technical geek and thereby get the needed dough. <B>Dating tip</b>: Don't date a geek of the same persuasion as you. You'll constantly try to out-geek the other.</td></tr></table> <p><a href="http://www.thudfactor.com/geekquiz.php">Take the Polygeek Quiz at Thudfactor.com</a></p>
