Sites for People with Too Much Time

If you need a break from studying or maybe just a chuckle, relax with one or more of these sites:

Comics and Cartoons

Dilbert Zone
Who doesn't like the little guy with the flip tie in his continuous struggle against the corporate monster? Lots of comics and (yes!) merchandise.
Bizarro
 
Calvin & Hobbes
 
Doonesbury
 
Non Sequitur  
 
Shoe
Ballard Street by Jerry van Amerongen

Pearls before Swine

Family Guy

John Callahan

Asterix
For over thirty years now, the diminutive mustachioed Gaulish warrior and his wild-boar-eating sidekick Obelix have mesmerized European adult comic audiences. Needless to say, I own a complete set of their adventures. This site is the official Asterix page.
Ren & Stimpy
A chihuahua with a bad attitude and a cat with a blue nose??? I've always liked the unusual, and this is right up my alley.

Classic TV

A Tribute to Laurel and Hardy
The Boys just crack me up every time I see them. I still think they are the funniest comedy duo of all time. Abbott and Costello don't even come close. There are several privately maintained sites out in cyberland, and this is the best one I could find. Give me a holler if you come across something more interesting.
Honeymooners
I became fascinated with Ralph, Alice, Ed, and Trixie while I was in graduate school, watching late night TV and studying. This is still one of the best shows ever to be broadcast on American television. Right in the kisser!
The Bob Newhart Show
Bob? Oh Bob! Bob? Bob! Hi, Bob. Hello, Bob. Bob!
Mama's Family
 
The Jeffersons
 
Welcome Back, Kotter
Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh, Mistah Kottah!
 
The Mary Tyler Moore Show
Oh, Mister Grant.
 
The Odd Couple
Oscar, how could you?

Kiel

KIEL
My home town is located on the coast of the Baltic Sea in Germany, and I was naturally very happy when I finally found its web site. This page has a few pictures for you. (Click on the British flag for English text.)

Star Trek

Star Trek
The official site.
 
Klingon
Klingon Imperial Diplomatic Corps
 
Qo'noS (The Klingon Homeworld)
 
The Klingon Language Institute
This site is a must for trekkers and people with exceedingly too much time on their hands. Hey, I like watching Star Trek as much as the next guy, and I know that there is some serious linguistic research behind all this, but... For what it's worth, though, this site is quite interesting and contains a bevy of information. So put on your turtle shells, practice your grunts, and surf's up!

Cheese

People just don't know what good food is until they have tasted Bulgarian sheep's cheese or Norwegian caramelized goat cheese. Not liking cheese should be a felony. You will find all kinds of truly "cheesy" information here.

Tired of Freddie Krueger? Falling asleep during "Tales from the Crypt"? Then grab one of Lovecraft's books, and I promise you the suspense of a lifetime. I guarantee that you will take an ax to the basement with you just in case after you finish his stories.
