Two weeks ago we featured an incredible picture of Hurricane Isabel. We're such dupes. Thanks to a mysterious individual known as "On-line Privacy Consultant", the picture is not real. Bummer. Still very cool to look at. Kind of like Santa Claus, I am going to go on thinking it is real (hope I didn't spoil anything for you folks out there, you know, about Santa).
On to the newsletter. Enjoy!
===================================== Cool Picks of the Web =====================================
More Cool Stuff than you can throw a brick at.
SINGING HORSES! This is one of the greatest things ever... fun fun fun!! Click on each of the horses to start them singing once it loads. Then click on them again to stop the singing.
Zombie Survival Guide Yes, this is an actual book. Have you seen 28 Days Later? Awesome zombie movie...
Cell Phone Fires: A Lot of Static New from Nokia: the Torch 300!!
Bear Mauling Kills Grizzly Advocate, Friend That's irony for you.
"Ruff and tuff with my afro-puffs!" Bet you didn't know trucks could carry this much corn...
===================================== Unique Shirts =====================================
Pretty often we receive web site submissions that are not quite cool enough to be featured as a 'Cool Site of the Day' yet we like what they have to sell. UniqueShirts.com offers shirts that can only be described as unique. They're made of high-quality heavy-weight cotton, to last years. The gorgeous images are printed in vibrant colors using environmentally-friendly, water-based inks. With many categories available, there's something for everyone. The screening process creates images that don't have the stiff "shield-like" feel of silk-screened shirts. You almost can't feel the image. This prevents the image from flaking, peeling, or fading away for a long time. 579 designs, adult/youth sizes, long-sleeve tees, nightshirts, cap-t and spaghetti-strap tees. Reasonable pricing. Fast, free shipping. Browse around, and read the customer feedback.
===================================== Strange Things I Found on eBay =====================================
Folks sell all kind of strange stuff. For example:
"Uncle Bob's Glass Eye"

We got such a glowing response from one of our featured sites, we thought we'd share it with you:
"You are great! Thanks!...I did get many new members and incredible traffic....I have to tell you I have been enjoying the "echo" effect of being listed as Cool Site of the Day. Since the mention, MoMShack.com has been picked up by various big newsletters and even a radio station today. I am gaining many new members from this great "rippling" effect!....I have known about Cool Site of the Day for quite a few years and thank you for providing such a fun avenue of surfing the web!" -- Wendy Shepherd, momshack.com, studiomatrix.com
