Web Watch wouldn’t be able to cover as many websites as we do without being able to read quickly and comprehend what we’re poking our heads into.
Reading fast is one thing; knowing what we just read about is something else entirely.
But the question can come up as you outpace your friends and family in reading the BIG BANG THEORY VANITY CARDS before they’re off the screen as to exactly HOW FAST CAN YOU READ?
Just file this under the category of “Why didn’t we think of this?”. There has to be a target market for this type of thing…
The other day, Web Watch was talking with some older relatives about a recent checkup that they had with their doctor.
Health-wise, everything’s fine… but when the doctor asked if they had made any lifestyle changes in the past year, they said that they had made one change: they’ve stopped using their car’s cruise control feature.

As if women needed to have another reason to worry about exercise and their bodies’ health, along comes another study that makes another medical connection that shows that the wrong type of exercise is actually bad for you.
If you’re like the majority of people today, you’re a meat-eater.
A carnivore. You’ll eat chicken, steak, pork.
You know, all that good, tasty stuff.
A few of you may go fish-only, deciding that being a pescatarian is more your style.
Even fewer may decide that, for various reasons, being a vegetarian is the right lifestyle choice for you. And then there are the vegans, who eschew all animal products (including dairy, eggs, and honey).
We’ll let the vegans be, as they’re not hurting anyone.
But the vegetarians? Those people we’ll chat about today. Read on…
Web Watch has been lucky enough to have seen pretty much every major artist we’ve ever wanted to see play in concert.
Kenny Rogers? Check.
U2? Check.
Neil Diamond? Check.
Village People? You betcha.
And for the most part, we had tickets or passes for every show. Now, we’ll admit that there may have been one or two where we did end up having to finagle our way into a venue or two, but we swear that we had a legitimate right to be there to justify our sneakiness.
Just because we didn’t have a ticket at the time doesn’t mean that we didn’t know where we could get one.
Are you that Web Watch reader who’s stuck at work, just hankering to look at some images that your company would consider to be NSFW (that’s “not safe for work”, for those new Web Watch readers who may not be familiar with the term).
Look – Web Watch understands that some of our readers may be a bit addicted to pornography, so we’re here to help. We’ve found a website that’s perfectly acceptable for you to view at work, even though it is 100% filled with explicit, pornographic images.
In some divorces, couples fight over who gets the toilet paper.
One of Web Watch’s friends wanted out of his marriage so badly, he left everything behind. The ex-wife got everything – including his clothes. He felt it was easier to just replace all his stuff then it was to have to deal with her in any way.
Yeah, that was a rough divorce, but rest assured that he’s in a much, much happier place now.

Have you ever quit your job?
Web Watch knows someone who didn’t actually quit their job – they just stopped showing up while they went to work elsewhere. The employer kept paying them and kept them on the payroll for months, before figuring out that person wasn’t going to come back. It was more of a quiet, subtle quit process.
But quitting can bring such joy to people, if they do it with passion.
Web Watch has been around for quite a number of years now, having presented our faithful readers with thousands of websites, videos, news articles, and other tidbits of helpful information along the way.
And with that type of success online, we’re also subjected to having our content stolen.
It’s true — and we’ve had to file cease & desist notices to a number of websites that copied our original content and presented it as their own.
Silly rabbit – just because it’s posted on the Internet doesn’t mean that it’s free for the taking.
Apparently, Canadians hate sex.
To be fair, it’s not all Canadians, and it’s not that they hate sex — it’s just that some Canadians have sex lower on their priority scale than other things.
Bored?
Looking for something fun to do?
Why not take a few minutes to poke around with Google?
(“Hey, Web Watch – we already know how to use Google,” you say. Of course you do. But here’s how to have FUN with Google search…)

So the other day, Web Watch was having some drinks with friends when the topic of party music came up.
Of course, we all broke out singing Red Solo Cup
Which only prompted us to sing the song louder and at every available opportunity.
And that’s when the conversation shifted from FUN PARTY SONGS to WORST SONGS FOR STRIPPERS TO DANCE TO.
The overall winner?

Why are you removing your tattoo?
Show of hands:
How many Web Watch readers out there have tattoos?
Alright — now how many of you have a tattoo that you regret having?
And finally – how many of you are going through the tattoo removal process? Yeah… this last group is the one we want to talk with.
