Music in the back plays the theme to Raiders of the Lost Ark.

The eternal quest to find the strange and mysterious things on the Net continues !
Having taken upon myself to find the weird, wild and wonderful links that people have made, I have followed unknown links, performed searches on strange new terms, and have wasted a lot of valuable time to write this list. Attempts have been made to put this list into some kind of order. You may find that it is still chaotic. But, as all home pages, this list is still under construction. Feel free to offer advice on the way you think this list should look like. And now, without much further ado, here is the list for your perusal.

If you want to, you can jump stright down to the category you want. I have divided things up into the following categories :

Serious things : things like my friends' pages.

Not Useless things : While not useless, these still are not serious pages.

Lists : Lists of links and links to lists.

Pictures : If you like looking at weird pictures, look here.

Art : Art comes in all shapes and forms, as you can see here.

Personal Pages : These are the kinds of people who make home pages devoted to the weirdest of things. Namely, themselves.

Foreign Cultures : One of the things to do on the Net is learn what people are like in other places. Here are some examples.

Words and Languages : These pages are about various languages and things like that.

Famous People : These are pages devoted to famous people. What did you think the title meant ?

Life : Pages devoted to life, in it's myriad forms.

Death : Some people have an interest in Death. Go figure.

The World around us : Learn all about what's going on.

Religions : Do I really have to explain every single one of these titles ?

Games and Toys : Things to play with while you're playing with the computer.

Miscellaneous : These are things that don't fit into any other category.

To tell you the truth, Not all pages out there are nonsense. There are some pages that are serious in nature. Here are some that I access often.

The Meimad Home Page
Meimad is an Israeli political party, which represents the religious Center and Left. It's priniciple is to seek peace in all parts of life, whether between religious and non-religious, Jew and Gentile, and most important, Israel and her neighbours.
Aaron Leff was a study partner of mine in Yeshiva. While he doesn't have a page yet himself, you can find out how he wastes his time at the Livington NCSY page.
I didn't help them write their page, so I don't take responsability for how it looks. So there.
Jenni (Mott) Merrifield
Amongst the many things I do to waste my time (anything but go to class !) is write in a Round Robin. I met Jenni through it. Also, read the stories I'm helping to write.
Steve Leavitt
Steve is a close buddy of mine, and I sort of promised him I'd make a link to his page from mine. Well, Steve, here it is.
Amongst the many people here at Bar Ilan who have learned how to publicize their existance on the Web is Avri .

Not only have they been retired, they get welfare and Medicare and all of those bonuses. Aren't they lucky ? (Actually, these are all the old things from the Useless Page list) Don't forget to look these over as well.

That's all I have found so far. But, stay tuned, true believers, for my quest continues. The odd, strange, weird, and the crazy will not escape me for long. So farewell for now, and feel free to drop me a line if you find anything you think should be on this list.

You may have noticed that some of the links on this list are mentioned in other links on the list. This is because I have personally checked through each and every one of the links listed here, and if I feel that something deserves it's own mention, then it gets one. I would like to thank all of the unknown, unnamed people out there who took the time and effort not only for coming up with these ideas, but also for going the extra step of putting them out on the Net for us all to see for reasons which, probably for all time, will remain a mystery to the rest of us. I would also like to thank all of those who have generated similiar lists to this, whether I mentioned them or not, who I have copied stuff from. It is people like you and me who keep the rest of the world in perspective, so that all those out there who are lost can easily find themselves a home in one of the pages we have documented. Again, I thank and congratulate each and every one of you personally. I must also thank those of you who have sent me letters telling me of new links to add. Whether or not I took your advice, I thank you all the same.

All I can do now is sum it all up and say to all of you that you should keep up the good work and keep the Net the madcap place we have come to call home.
