Welcome
a.k.a. "website," often used interchangeably with "homepage" to give it an air of purpose.
Every homepage is unique, as unique as the induhvidual that created them. This site is a cyber mini-series, the new form of entertainment that will bridge the 20th and 21st centuries.

*SpiteNET: Spite & Malice - the card game with an
attitude,
is my fast moving and addictive card game. Download it from here!

IN THE BEGINNING, entertainment came in the form of traveling troupes of artists. They would sing, dance, act, juggle, show us strange oddities from far off places, perform magic tricks, tell jokes. After the invention of the printing press, people could read about these things with the occasional drawing to give it life.
But it was serialized stories that keep people hungry for more. Radio kept people interested with continuing adventures like "The Shadow." Movies kept people returning with the classic cliff-hanger style endings. Soaps on TV have held people’s attention for more than 20 years.
And just as there is variety in books and films, from fiction to non-fiction, documentary to cartoon, this homepage is here merely to entertain. It is somewhere between the Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits - I control some of what you see and hear, but you ultimately have the choice to get lost in cyber space by following the twisting paths of the links.
There are jugglers in the form of animated gifs, a love story, a card game, links to strange oddities on the net, serious information, trivia, sex, music and humor. Just take your time and enjoy. It’s free.*
...And for my first
trick, you can view this page in alternate realities if you are
dyslexic
or Swedish. Think you're above tricks? See if
you can figure out how this
internet
card trick is done (click on the Mysterious Rabbit there).
