Who We Were: A Snapshot Picture of America
As you go about cleaning out your house, Web Watch is sure that the question of “What shoul I do with all these old photos that we have lying around?” comes up on occasion.
Some photos, you naturally would keep. Perhaps in a frame, perhaps in a shoebox tucked under the bed.
But there are also novelty photos that really aren’t meaningful enough to keep, but aren’t so bad that you want to throw them away.
That’s where MOVING PICTURES comes in, as they’ve taken dozens of photobooth film strips and other photos that they’ve found scattered around across America and digitized them.
So the other day, Web Watch read an article entitled CANCER IS A MAN-MADE DISEASE, STUDY CLAIMS, that talked about how cancer was a relatively rare occurance back in the day.
The article said that while DINOSAURS HAD CANCER, cancer was generally considered relatively rare before the 17th century. For example, scientists found just one mummy from the Dakhleh Oasis that had rectal cancer about 1,600-1,800 years ago, while today cancer is said to be responsible for 1-in-8 deaths.
The AMAZON KINDLE is great: whenever a new book release comes out, you can pretty much instantly download that book to your Kindle and begin reading immediately.
The hard part is knowing what books — or movies, or DVD’s, or video games — are being released each week so that you can be prepared ahead of time. Sometimes things get released and you just haven’t been paying attention.
Halloween Costume & Party Supplies Store Business Plan
As Halloween fast approaches, Web Watch wants to remind you that you have a limited amount of time to pick out the best Halloween costume out there.
Web Watch has already told you about one place to find SOME GREAT LAST-MINUTE HALLOWEEN COSTUME IDEAS, but we have stumbled upon one site that is chock-full of not only some great ideas, but the visuals you need to pull the outfit off yourself.
That’s why we’re pointing you to WTF COSTUMES: THE CRAZY and SEXY HALLOWEEN COSTUME ARCHIVE.
Web Watch would like to take a moment to salute the marketing geniuses at McDonald’s for continuing the McDONALD’s MONOPOLY PROMOTION. It combines two great things into a singular quest to find the special missing sticker that will complete your game board. Boo-ya!
Let’s cut straight to the chase: there is absolutely nothing for you to do that will affect your ability to win this contest… other than doing everything you can to obtain as many game pieces as possible in the hopes that one of them is a rare chaser piece.
Passion Play – A Romantic Gay Game for Two
Dating site OK CUPID regularly digs into their database of registered users who are looking for love to see if there are any interesting trends to report. For example, remember when Web Watch wrote about HOW TO WRITE THE PERFECT DATING EMAIL? Yeah, that was from OK Cupid.
In other words, when it comes to reporting what real-world daters are really going through, they have a good idea of what’s going on. Which is why, when OK Cupid decided to look at GAY DATING TRENDS vs STRAIGHT DATING TRENDS, you have to trust that they know what they’re talking about.
Ken Jennings Trivia Almanac, featuring 8,888 trivia questions
Ken Jennings is a trivia master.
He’s the 2nd greatest earnings champion in JEOPARDY! history, but has won more overall game show earnings than any other contestant. He has a few books, of course – he even has his own CAN YOU BEAT KEN board game. He even won GRAND SLAM, the trivia contest that pitted all the top game show contestants against each other to see who truly was the best.
In interviews, Ken has said that nobody can really know it all, and there were a number of Jeopardy! questions that he simply guessed the answers to. Granted, they were highly educated guesses – but they were guesses nonetheless.
