| Just because Playboy has a "reality TV show" doesn't mean you should submit freakish audition tapes. Warning: contains nudity and idiocy.

| Thursday Nov 14, 2002 | Cockfighting: once the
sport of
kings, now the sport of the underworld.
Cockfighting (also known by the more snicker-inducing name "cocking")
is still popular
around the world,
but is illegal throughout the U.S. except in
New Mexico and
Louisiana.
Despite support from
celebrity
advocates,
it appears that cockfighting will never regain its status as a
legitimate sport.
However, that doesn't mean there aren't
farm websites,
web portals,
magazines,
online
art galleries,
photo albums,
forums,
and
stores
devoted to it.

| Classmates.com and Alumni.net are great if you actually had friends in high school. If, on the other hand, you communicated at 2400 baud with other text-only geeks, you want BBSMates.com. Track down your pals from ISCA or Heinous [login as "bbs"], or find a new crew.

| Wednesday Nov 13, 2002 | Enterprising (and sufficiently insane) tinkerers can do a
wide variety of dubious and
dangerous
things with the
microwave
oven sitting so innocently in their kitchen.
Besides
shooting it with
a gun,
or using it to
melt metals,
you can perform various
dangerous
experiments with superheated liquids, coils of wire, steel wool,
bars of soap
and flash bulbs.
You can also use a microwave to
create
ball lightning,
take it apart in order to build a
microwave
gun
or to build a device that
disables video
cameras.
Just make sure to wear your
Faraday cage underpants!

| Although
"lorem ipsum" is the typesetting industry's standard dummy text, other typolalia such as
etaoin shrdlu (i

keyboard) and pangrams show up now and again, as well.

| Sacre bleu! There are so many cool French comics! Do you remember pipe-smoking superhero Mister X? Or the flamboyant motorcycling crimefighter Motoman? Or the bizarre antihero Satanik, who only robbed and killed other criminals? And who could forget reading Otomox: Master of Robots while eating camembert and sipping chardonnay before school, mes amis? Despite all this, are you prepared for the ultimate team-up of Batman and... Tintin!?! (BTW: Other Tintin parodies abound.) to Comics by fatherdan |

Then donate the results to Locks of Love

Gayle up to these days? Five feet? Ten?

| Wednesday Nov 6, 2002 | Wonder Woman, though she has faded in the comics, is still the original superheroine archetype. Her spiritual children are legion, including pop culture icons like Buffy and Xena, and many a deviant fantasy can be traced back to her, but there are more obscure people out there fighting the good fight. to Culture by yoyology |
