We already know a helluva lot about our world - and science in general is so much more advanced now than it was just 100 years ago. This scientific site contains lectures on the stuff that we do not yet know about i.e. the mysteries of our universe which have still not yet been unlocked. Should keep the researchers busy for years to come.

If you've been alive over 10 years then no doubt you will have seen pictures of the 7 Wonders of the World.
These are the man-made equivalents of them.

You may have noticed that there was some downtime on this site during yesterday and today. Luckily I was up at 3am this morning working night-shift so I was able to contact the folks who host my server earlier rather than later.
Apparently there was some kind of hardware failure on the server but they weren't more specific than that.
Apologies for the interruption of service...

Check out ALL the playmates there have ever been in a chronological list going back as far as 1953 and up to January 2007. Some of the pages may take a little while to load...remember using a dialup connection to access your internets? Well this will bring back a few memories of that!

Included on the site are stories by over 40 different authors (including anonymous contributions).
Some say, (and I would agree) that the written word leaves a more lasting impression than films of the same story. But then again I may be the only person I know that actually read a Star Wars book!

"1. Never ask a woman if she wants to have sex by asking her if she wants to have sex."
"5. Wear as much black as you can. It makes you look slimmer and cooler. But avoid black jeans."
"11. Be aware that most people are operating on a very condensed version of the 10 Commandments: the part about murder."
and the other 37 are not be missed either.

Whenever people in the West talk about China these days they use phrases like 'The Sleeping Giant', 'The Birth of a New Superpower' or 'The Awakening of the Red Dragon'. The guy who has made this site has uncovered a so far unseen aspect of the country - people taking naps or being fast asleep right there in the street!. There are 700 photos on the site of sleeping Chinese people in unlikely situations.
