| Thursday Sep 28, 2000 | Wong Fei-Hung was a Chinese healer, martial artist, and genuine folk hero of the late 19th and early 20th century who is also the father of modern Hung-Gar kung fu. Kwan Tak-Hing portrayed him in hundreds of movies. More recently, he has been seen in films such as Once Upon a Time in China (where Jet Li kicks the crap out of Americans exploiting China) and Drunken Master II (where Jackie Chan kicks the crap out of Brits exploiting China). to History by nyarl |
| Tuesday Jul 11, 2000 | Joss Whedon may be pretty cool and all that, but his work on X-Men consisted of a thrown-out rewrite, and on Titan A.E. a slightly-less thrown-out rewrite. He's hardly "responsible" for either film or script... to Television by nyarl |

| Monday Mar 27, 2000 | For reasons I still can't explain, I've recently had the bizarre urge to track down and listen to that old "Mickey Mouse" song by Sparks. While the closest I've gotten so far is "Angst in My Pants", I did stumble across the biased history of british glam rock in the process. It's a shame the evil imposters had to come along cheapen all the wonderful glitter and eye shadow and hairspray. What kind of sad world is it where Elton John walks freely through society while Gary Glitter gets locked up? to Music by nyarl |

| Monday Jan 24, 2000 | Though it first seemed to be a lame gift, I have to admit that the George Foreman Lean Mean Fat Reducing Grilling Machine is actually damn useful and I can make an awesome steak or burger quickly. But for pure entertainment value, even it can't compare to George Foreman's website. Turn up the speakers and listen to the champ's piano music and maybe a sermon on the Doctrine of Love while you order the strange Buddha-like sculpture that might be a rocking chair where you sit in George Foreman's lap but I can't really tell. to Food by nyarl |
| Monday Jan 10, 2000 | Bruce Campbell has a new TV show called Jack of All Trades, where he battles the most evil enemy of all -- the French. It's being paired with some other syndicated show called Cleopatra 2525, where scantily clad women get chased underground by killer robots and "discover Cleopatra, an aspiring actress and part-time exotic dancer who suddenly awakens from a cryogenic deep freeze, having lapsed into a coma during cosmetic surgery in the year 2001."

| Monday Dec 6, 1999 | Ship of Fools is a Christian magazine that's well-written, funny, and not the least bit afraid to engage in self-satire. From a fruitcake list to debunking religious myths.
It's also worth checking out for the Gadgets for God, which features such wonders as
vaginal moisturizing cream to a gigantic floating messiah. to Religion by nyarl |

| Thursday Nov 25, 1999 | Though they bat around the word "postmodern" far too much for my delicate sensibilities, fluxeuropa is a nifty "cultural webzine reviewing art, books, films, music, personae and miscellanea." I stumbled across them while looking for artwork by Tor Lundvall, who's collaborated with Tony Wakeford on several Sol Invictus album covers and the masterfully dark Autumn Calls. to Web by nyarl |
| Monday Oct 11, 1999 | A fire has been burning since May of 1962 in the coal deposits of Centralia, PA, with no end in site. Despite the toxic fumes and dead land, it's still a minor tourist attraction for people who think the rest of Pennsylvania just isn't enough of a wasteland. to Travel by nyarl |

| Tuesday Sep 21, 1999 | The web-site for game designer Warren Spector's impending conspiracy-theorist's wet dream adventure Deus Ex claims to have been shut down and is being monitored, presumably by the secretive UN Anti-Terrorist Coalition. Me? I sent mail asking for a job to UNATCO. Sadly, their kid's page is still under construction. to Conspiracy by nyarl |
| Thursday Sep 9, 1999 | The minions of Hell are surely taking over the net, and their latest weapon is FamilyPoint. Now all your relatives who you don't want to talk to can do more than just pester you with their AOL and WebTV accounts, but share a web-based fridge with you as well! Please kill me. to Web by nyarl |

Mmm, that human rotisserie is making me hungry for some Rice Krispies. to Wackos by nyarl |
| Friday Jun 18, 1999 | Even goofier than the old Atari Force comics, it's Norton's Sarcman vs. the Virus Vixens promotional campaign. Sadly, a half-hour of dawdling at work was unable to turn up any web pages on the old early 80's comic books with toothpaste superheroes battling villains and promoting dental care, though I did find a few very special issues of Spiderman in people's listings. Wasn't there some sort of "Crest Force" team as well, or am I just overflowing with false memories? to Comics by nyarl |

| Friday May 7, 1999 | There's something unsettling about doctors who are too over-excited about their work. Especially when they look vaguely like Bill from "Bill & Ted", set up exclamation point-ridden web-sites like Dr. Greenson's Gastrointestinal and Liver Pathology Home Page Extravaganza, and their job may involve sticking their hand in places I don't want to think about. Hey, kids, there's even the Infectious Case of the Month, collect them all! to Health by nyarl |
| Tuesday May 4, 1999 | Back in '94 some film students disappeared in rural Maryland while filming a documentary on the local folklore, but some of what they shot was recovered and made into a movie called The Blair Witch Project, potentially the most significant movie footage to be reconstructed since Forgotten Silver. to Movies by nyarl |
| Monday Apr 26, 1999 | Founding Chairman of the Black Panther Party Bobby Seale is now fighting for even more civil rights and has released a Barbeque Bill of Rights. In all honesty, try some of the recipes he offers; I highly recommend the Saucy-Qued Country Style Ribs. It's like there's a revolution in my mouth and everyone's invited! to Food by nyarl |

It's totally modular, based on a Cyrix MediaGX motherboard, and overlays video effects on the glass above the action. Since they're the only companies making decent pinball games these days, let's hope they stay alive a bit longer... to Games by nyarl |

| Friday Apr 2, 1999 | Wow, according to the Geneva Convention Relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War, POWs actually have it pretty good. Health care (Articles 29-33), nice treatment if they're high-ranking (Articles 43-45)...they even get paid (Articles 62-64)! And the only punishments their captors can really mete out are not paying them quite as much, making them exercise for no more than two hours a day, and confinement (Article 89). I wanna be a prisoner of war! to Warfare by nyarl |

But they're far more varied than that, with the Lexicon of Parrots listing incomprehensible amounts of photos and information on all known parrot species (and several extinct ones, too). to Reference by nyarl |

| Wednesday Mar 3, 1999 | A major influence to artists such as Tim Burton and Terry Gilliam, Czechoslovakian Jan Svankmajer crafts surreal works blending cinema, animation, puppetry, and a twisted imagination. His films can be difficult to track down in America, but are well worth searching for -- his rendition of Alice in Wonderland easily beats any NBC crap, and Faust will leave you with a mortal fear of marionettes.

Proof positive of this insidious plot can be seen in Theodore Rex, starring Whoopi Goldberg -- a propaganda film preparing us for the inevitable Reptoid invasion. Sadly, the only weapon we have against these evil monsters is information from the brave freedom fighters running the web site.

| UPDATE: Thanks to a loyal reader, that funky banner ad to Kalashnikov has been roughly translated as "Everyone trusts Kalashnikov. From Spetsnaz to Cisco Systems." Now, the Spetsnaz are Soviet special forces, but we are still left with one important nagging question: Why on earth is Cisco Systems stockpiling and endorsing AK-47s? to Warfare by nyarl |
