First Post
by Steve West on August 11, 2007
Rather than clog the TC Board with things that mostly interest me exclusively, this seemed a more appropriate avenue. I'll probably post something nearly every day as I'm online daily just surfin' & lookin' for weird stuff. For example, how else would I have ever known of these products if I hadn't seen them using "strange" in a search string? What did I do before the net? Bugged the shit out of my wife with crap in the newspaper. Now it's with crap I find on the net. Now it's your turn.

Cool! Thanks for saving me the trouble of surfing to find more from the world of the BizarreNetBazaar, Steve!!!

Been meaning to be more contributive and the R$ was what finally pushed me over the edge, so to speak. But removing that won't keep me from this blog. I meant what I said about sharing maybe a link a day and not crowding TC. It's fun for me to share the weird crap I encounter. Will truthfully be sad about the R$'s going away for it though.

Yeah, me too... and in no small part because some otherwise really quiet folks have been a bit more active, too (Denise!) -- it isn't *all* about the money! (Just mostly... ;-D)

Halloween Post #7: Scary Movies
Movie moments are still stuck in my head from films I saw 30 years ago, moments that scared the crap out of me then and still run chills down my spine today. This web page has collected 100 of these scary film moments and tried to supply a Youtube clip for each one (not successful) and some interesting commentary. This site might hold you until Halloween.

Recent conversation with Brenda: Me: I watched the neighbor's dog for an hour the other day. Brenda: That was nice of you. Me: I let him off the leash and a cop came up to me a few minutes later and said my dog has been seen chasing a guy on a bicycle. Go »Modern Decision Making

Steve, I really appreciate all the contributions you've made lately, and I hope to keep reading more strange links from you. However, if you're doing it to get more R$, and there's nothing wrong with it if you are, that's probably going to go away shortly.
