The ones that are marked *NEW* are the most recent links added. The links marked with a !!!!! are the ones I visit most often as well as think you’ll get a big kick out of also.
PLEASE NOTE: I’ve tried hard to make sure there are no links that could be found offensive to the majority of normal, open-minded people. However...
PARENTS, Please make sure you monitor your children while they’re on the web so the government doesn’t have to do it for all of us and destroy our First Amendment rights!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
