Here's the amusing, bemusing, and occasionally edifying
entertainment section, including such perennial favorites
as literature and politics. I'll also include sections
with my favorite pictures, graphics, illustrations and
whatnot. There'll also be sections on gardening, maps,
cultural icons, and just about anything else that piques
my curiosity enough to cobble together a Web page.
- One of my favorite curmudgeons/cranks/hellraisers from the
annals of America literature. (And, come to think of it, one of
the very few curmudgeons/cranks/hellraisers from those annals.)
- Ship pictures and illustrations
- Pictures, drawings, or paintings of sailing ships that
I've found in various nooks and crannies on the Web. The original
images are usually 200+ K in size so I've created reduced versions
of the images that are links to the originals. Yet another public
service of skb enterprises.
- Cultural Icons
- People (or otherwise) I consider at least interesting enough
to besmirch with the abovementioned label and dig up pertinent
Web sites for my perusal.
- Art
- Purty pitchers and stuff.
- Politics
- Commie pinko leftist McGovernick doubleplusungood links to
subversive political sites. I wouldn't touch this with a
ten-foot browser if I were you and didn't want my name
prominently featured in the NSA/CIA/FBI/etc. files labeled
"congenital troublemakers and ne'er-do-wells".
- Seeds and plants
- Things horticultural, especially if they pertain to
hot peppers, other veggies, herbs and the like.
- Maps
- Links to sites with images of old maps or charts, especially
those with "Here Be Dragons!" written near the edges.
- Beyond the Fringe
- If the section on politics didn't garner you a nocturnal
visit from the Men in Black, then this sure will.
- Comic strips etc.
- The on-line funny papers, i.e. Dilbert and the like.
The on-line appearances of at least the more famous strips
are lagged a bit from their first hardcopy appearances.
