Ok if anybody is at work today, nothing will get done because I have some bizarre websites I have come across that you might like to see... NOT!
Did you know there is one called "Men who look like Kenny Rogers.com" which includes Kenny of the month (of course)?
I found another called "Runpee.com" this is one is handy, it lists all movies currently in theatres and the best time to go and pee, should you need to, so that you don't miss anything crucial in the film; yes somebody has sat down and worked all this out for your convenience!
Last but certainly not least we have "Squirrel Lovers Club.com" which features Twiggy the waterskiing squirrel (I kid you not!)
What was the last thing you googled? Anything bizarre?

Some interesting sites you seem to have found. I don't have time to look for bizarre sites. But yesterday evening, I was looking for some images of baby's feet and hands, and managed to find quite a number of appropriate images I could use. I design cards for people, and that includes baby cards as well. Ideally, if people furnish photos of their newborn, I can incorporate them into very customized cards for them, but if I didn't have such photos, then I will insert very generic images like baby's hands and feet in these cards. That's why I had to go look for suitable images.

I don't usually have time to surf the net either, some of the weird and wonderful sites I usually come across while researching something else or friends tell me about them; I wish I had more time to browse the net though because I thoroughly enjoy it!
Your business sounds terrific and very rewarding, I would love to see some of your work, it would be fun to do...If only I had your talent...
Thanks for responding, I appreciate it!

Hi there Paula, sorry I've taken two weeks to come back to this thread to respond to you. I've been occupied with other things during this time but I have not forgotten about your request. Well, I've put together a small graphic showing 7 cards (shown only in miniatures) I have designed in the past few years. Please see the attached graphic.
From left to right, top to bottom, they are a Christmas card, birthday card, US Independence Day card, farewell card, Happy Mother's Day card, Valentine's Day card and a card for a newborn.
I have actually done many more other creations like montages of holidays, welcome cards, posters, brochures, bookmarks, worship covers, CD covers, etc. I have also done Valentine's Day cards for myLot these past two years, and they can be found in these discussions: http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1405098.aspx and http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1908022.aspx. Not sure if you saw them when I posted them previously on myLot.

Well, the last thing I just checked on was for SCAMS. It was for a place that has been looking for workers via Craigslist, and even sends out checks, etc. which end up bouncing. It had some very interesting information listed there, and maybe one worth me starting a New discussion on to help make others aware for sure.

Well, I do need to start a Discussion on Scams to watch for, as there are a lot of them out there. Many will send checks even making many people unaware.

Wow that would be worth sharing! How low to do that to people! I do not understand how someone who does that kind of thing can go about their days without their conscience eating them up from the inside! It is the lowest type of scam, to take advantage of folks looking for work!Thanks for sharing KrauseHome, I appreciate your response....
