Those kids at The Truth.com make me want to go back in time and quit smoking even sooner than I did. Check out their "Tobacco Industry Recall" ad from April Fool's Day. (Another shoutout to Lauri for this link!)

There are so many of these alleged "end of the Internet" pages that I don't know which one is the authentic last page. Wait a minute! What if the whole thing is a hoax??? I've heard of people doing that on April 1st.

You Have no Rights Under APE-LAW! is the glorious home of Gone & Forgotten: The Worst Comics Ever, (featuring "HANSI:THE GIRL WHO LOVED THE SWASTIKA"). Thanks to Leonard Pierce for suggesting this link.

I remembered the other ad that uses kinky, domesticated sex to sell. It's for this yogurt, which, uncoincidentally, I just had for breakfast. It is deliciously creamy.

The best thing about this ad, I think, is the lighthearted way the guy next door runs into that organized room. He's just so, "Chase me! Eeek!"

The site I knew as E-Cards is now called Cardlady.com, and has suffered a redesign, but it's still the best clearing house around for a wide selection of online greetings. Click "search," plug in a category, and you're good to go. Note: Today is VALENTINE'S DAY! Have a good one!

If you decide to start playing HSX, check out the info here. I should have, before I let RCROW take me to the cleaners.

Did you admire the lethal blade Dr. Lechter flashed in Hannibal? I'm told that it's made by Spyderco, and it's either the Harpy or the Merlin.

According to Rotten Tomatoes, reviews of "Hannibal" are running about 50-50 for and against.

Fashion Week kicks off in NYC today. I only wish all the events listed here were happening near my office so I could sneak into shows on my lunch hour and steal gift baskets. Alas, I'll have to keep up by checking Fashion Wire Daily and Luxury Fashion.

An online friend mentioned Neil and Vyv and lentils the other day and I had such a lovely Young Ones flashback. Good times!
