I'm gonna be a dork and plug my website that I created for my chapter. It's by far my favorite...lol. http://www.unomaha.edu/~comega

Christmas isn't too far away, and so I recommend the Bell Family Christmas page. It's really neat with tons of different links. ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE. http://www.arlenes-heavenlywebs.com/...Christmas.html

And since I'm in the business...I would be stupid if I didn't give out the link to the World's Most Perfectly Cut Diamond; HEARTS ON FIRE. http://www.hearts-on-fire.com/hofinternet/index1.htm

I thought I was the only Yank that reads that strip - I love it!

Have you seen http://www.GetFuzzy.com? I just finished his first collection and am now addicted to the strip.

Great minds think alike!

Hi guys!

Do you guys know of any website that has to do with the characters of Pleasant Moments (is that what it's called???HELP!)? You know, those figurines that are so cute...they have big eyes and always a smile is fixed onto them?

Anyway, one of my friend's b-day is coming up and she is a huge fan of them. I want to send her an online greeting card with them, in addition to her gift. So I need help! Thanks http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

For those looking for summer job:
Cool works.
I was helping a friend look for an outdoor job and came across this--cool works. It has ranch/resort/camp jobs. A member of my family needed something new in life so I told her about the site. She answered a job listing at a dude ranch, met one of wranglers (hey, cow girl), who was a grad student taking some time off from school. They have since married, now have 2 babies. My friend decided to hitch hike around Europe.

my favorite gamer site: http://frenzygamers.com/

CarolinaPhi 10-04-2010 11:45 PM

I have to admit I'm guilty of always reading those sites like TFLN (text from last night) & FML (f my life)... especially while in a boring lecture! One of my sisters just showed me a new one called dearblankpleaseblank.com. If you're ever bored, or just trying to procrastinate like I often do, check it out! Click under the 'hilarious' tab if you need a good laugh. :]

AnotherKD 10-05-2010 09:30 AM

The funniest site I have ever seen, and almost each post makes me laugh out loud.

The drawings are absolutely hilarious. Do yourself a favor and take a look!

Yes! My favorite entry is "This is why I'll never be an adult." I had to close the door to my office because I was laughing so hard the first time I read it. I really want a "Clean ALL the things!" coffee mug.

I love "Hyperbole and a Half", too!! I printed out this "certificate" thing she had that says "Responsibility Champion - I get shit done!" with a guy giving a thumbs up.

Tulip86 10-05-2010 07:23 PM

I love this one:

Is FreeRice legit? It's fun when I'm bored and it would be nice if it was actually helping.

Sporcle is also great when you're bored.

Yes it is! I did one of my final senior projects for a marketing class for that website.

Dads are the Original Hipster
 
I think a friend posted a link to this through Facebook.
I had an 'online diary' before they were even blogs, but I don't have one now, nor do I really follow anyone else's blogs- EXCEPT this one. It's the funniest thing I've seen in a long time.
I love the vintage pics of dads (wistful- my dad died when I was 10:(), coupled with poking fun at hipsters.
Enjoy
