What Time Did You Say It Was?
If any site should be posted here it is the Human Clock. Is it strange? You bet. The site has hundreds of photos of people displaying different times in different ways in different places all over the world. For just about any HH:MM of the day you can find a photo at this site of someone displaying the current time. You can also choose between an analog and digital clock for many of the times.
Drivers License Photo
At DriversLicenseSearch you can allegedly find the drivers license photo of any licensed driver in the United States. The home page sites statutes and laws that make this information available. Fill in the form and submit it. See what you get. I know I've ruined it for you but you can pass it along to your friends and relatives who probably won't know about this site.

All the Jokes Fit to Post
What a novel idea. Instead of sending jokes to all your friends and receiving them from all your friends, just come to Friday Fun and see what netizens think is funny. If you have something you think is funny, send it in and they will post it. The site is not limited to just text jokes, but videos, images, sound files and more.

The Yuckiest Little Miniature Golf Course in the West
That's how the web master describes this set of photos and videos of the Magic Carpet (Mini) Golf course in Billings, Montana. Yet another totally tasteless, but hilarious, web site generated by someone with too much time on their hands.
What's a Nine-letter Word for...?
If you like Crosswords, you'll love this site. It contains thousands of crossword puzzles just waiting for a savant to solve them. Fill out the crossword on line or print it out. Great for the Crossword solver.
Car for Most Occasions
My understanding of this video is that it was created as a demo for an advertising firm and never meant to be seen by the public. Somehow it got out onto the Internet. The advertising firm is being sued. Car for Most Occasions may not be for everyone. Some will consider it to be in poor taste. You've been warned.
Say What?...
I don't even begin to know the purpose of this site. But it allegedly translates English web sites into ??? hip-hop? rap? I don't know enough about the lingo to do it justice so I won't try to imitate it. But everything is filled with lots of "dizzle, sizzle, nizzle and mizzle" words along with leaving the "r" off many "er" words. Gizoogle looks and operates like Google but the citations show up the Gizoogle format. If you type an entire URL (including http://) into the search box, it will take you to the site and translate the entire site for you.
