Frau, I know your intentions are good, but you just lost 500 credits by showing that link.

Of course, maybe your intentions aren't so good, in which case your credibility as an internet terrorist just went up.

Simple:

1) Turn off brain.

2) Post and link anything at all that pops into the brain that has been turned off.

3) Forget when to say "enough is enough".

4) Rinse and repeat.

First thing I thought of was this I kid you not, my web browser had a seizure and froze up for about 5 minutes when I opened that page.

When I attended a web page design class, they used a text book entitled

"Web pages that suck". Now it has it's own web page

We need international government oversight to prevent music on webpages.... especially sucky music.... that is played loud.

If the music sucks, playing it louder only makes it suck for a greater distance.

So, Frau Kaluen, which dress did you pick in the end?

Never in my life have I required the use of chatroom abbreviations, until now - OMG, WTF!!!!!

It was really bad, and then the musak started , then I scrolled down... but how much time did Onkel Neal invest to find that page?

Granted, her site is best viewed through welders goggles, but I found a lot about her I liked.

Most especially, I like the fact that she isn't afraid of her own personality, and isn't afraid to express it. Her site gives me a great impression of who she is and I'm willing to bet that sitting next to her on a long flight would be both fun and memorable.

Nice to see someone making a living doing what they obviously love. I notice she has a lot of friends too - and that her customers all look pretty happy.

And isn't it nice to see someone who isn't trying to be a just a pale imitation of whatever cultural idol has happened to catch their imagination for the moment?


Her site also has a recipe for a killer Pecan Pie... but I'm not going to give you the link - So There!

No Idea (no pix), but the recipe was written in bright red letters over a pale blue background
