SITE REVIEWS CONTINUED FROM LAST TIME!
The Enchanted Castle
http://www.kansas.net/~jordan/
Thith ReportA wenteth to vithet The Enchanted Cathtle, a realm in medievel
time. Where I dithcovered that the Lady of thith realm ith "Lady Kathleen
and thhe doth rethide there with her loving King "Thir Dale".
(Thomething thtrange hath happened to me thince I verily beganith
my journey to thith place, but I digreth from my purpothe here.).
Thhe pothetheth thome tame petth. They are named "Thapthter",
a cat, and "China", a dragon, who I think I met on my wayeth in.
Ath I entered, I encountered the Thcroll Mathter who sold me a
thouveneir thnapthhot of the cathtle and all itth turretth.
He showed me a litht of roomth in the cathle. They included
Jethtth, Muthic, Art, Thtorieth, Jouthtth, Gameth, Chatth, etc.
It wuz quite impreththed by the ententhive litht of choices.
Being thomewhat of a Jethter my thelf, I picked 'The Jethter Hall'
as ath my firtht room to vithit and found mythelf riddled with riddleth.
(Mine brain doth throb Thumpety, Thump from tho much thinking!).
At an audience with Lady Kathleen, I inquired of her family and friendth.
Her brother, Magicman, the court thpell maker and wizard came by
and did thome card trickth. YEA..Verily I wath impreththed!
Next I took a trip to 'Ye Olde Conthignment thhoppe'
to thee what elthe I could buy for the kidth at home.
(CONTHIGNMENT THHOPPE?..I guethth a Queen ith entitled to earn
thome extra money on the thide. It cotht a lot to run a cathtle these dayth.)
You mayetht vithit Thir Dale, Thir Jothh, China'th Horthe Play,
Dragon'th Lair and a whole hotht of other neat placeth.
If thou dotht dethire a medievel good time go thee
"The Enchanted Cathtle"
you jutht might thee DThuthpendA there!!
Flint Castle
http://home1.gte.net/joziec/castle/index.html
(Sometimes I hit a brickwall trying to come up with an idea when
reviewing a site. I did not have this problem when I arrived at Flint Castle).
This must be my day for doing the Castle Hop.
(Irene and Vernon Castle would be so proud of me!).
This castle, like the last one, is also loaded with turrets,
(Obviously the architectural style of the day).
wuz moved stone by stone, brick by brick across the countryside
and placed pixel by pixel here on the web for our enjoyment.
After a few fuedal attempts(GROAN!!) trying to get her dragon to stop
flapping his wings I finally clicked on them and entered the Castle's domain.
I had a four hankie cry with the Town Crier who proclaimed about
Raven's travails in creating the site but how much she enjoys creating it
and all the new things she's constantly adding to it.
Next I went to the Castle Keep, which has descriptions of each
different section of the Castle. Things like Dragon Links,
(Reminds me of a golf joke Dman once told me.
Something about "...Hit once...Drag on Charlie..."),
Bailey, Gaming Links, Walkthroughs, The Great Hall where
my patience waiting for loading time paid off and I went
Trick or Treating with a bunch of ghosts and goblins, amassing lots of goodies.
On my trip to the 'Throne Room' I sat around a round table and chatted around
with the Knights of the Round Table. We went around and around
the Round Table and I got so dizzy I embarrassed myself by barfing on
King Arthur himself, who promptly banished me from the Round Table.
I left Flint Castle with my SuspendA draagging and my tail between my legs
but I plan to come back and spend more time visiting
The Stables, The Wizards Den and The Raven's Wing Inn.
You should plan on going on the Grand Tour of "Flint Castle" yourself...
just take some Dramamine if you go around the Round Table a lot of times.
WWW.GETASITE.COM ~ A Slice of Pittsburgh & Beyond
http://www.getasite.com
Going from Castle archiitecture to Internet architects I took in
"WWW.GETASITE.COM ~ A Slice of Pittsburgh & Beyond".
I joined a large group of people staring up at a construction site
in the making - They were hoiisting a Gothic arch over a Brickwall as I entered.
(These people must be big. I have viisiited 100's of sites displaying
their sign. "Site Under Construction! Please come again soon!")
I learned that 'Get-A-Site' architects are identical happy face twins -
Their smiling faces adorn their adverising banner.
They say they are the first and only Pittsburgh based Internet company
to introduce "Tasteful" web site designs inexpensively.
(I must say that the hotdog I ate at the Steeler game I attended
wuz very "Tasteful" so they're OK in my book.)
It must have been 'Banner Day' when I wuz there because
as I scrolled along on my journey I passed over some terrific ones.
They were very polite and answered all my questions regarding things like
Commitment to Service, Products & Pricing, Design & Advertising Policy
and a host of others. I think I asked so many questions I became a pest
and they reluctantly suggested I GET -(OUT) - A - SITE, which I did.
I will go back (in disguise) for another slice. They're terrific hosts
and it IS a "Tasteful" place for you to visit.
The Little Shack in the Woods
http://web.mountain.net/~wen
After gorging myself on 2 White Castles and a Slice of Pittsburgh and Beyond
I wuz desperately in need of a place for some personal relief.
BAMMMM!!!THANK HEAVEN!!
Up pops "The Little Shack in the Woods", moon shaped cresent on the door
and open for me to use. What a Godsend this place turned out to be.
Not only did I find relief but the late, great John Denver
sang to me while I wuz settin thar in thet lil room.

brite n' glist'ny in th early mawnin frost of proach'n winter.

"The Little Shack in the Woods" yule luv it!!
Back here in my office, nursing a Moonshiner of a hangover
I figured I would try using my backup Unique Dependable toy typewriter
with the variable sized letters and type fonts as a last resort
until someone finds me a ribbon replacement for my 1931 Classic Underwood typewriter.
[Please see
11/16/97 "...DSuspendA's Fate hangs by the End of His Ribbon"]
DRibbon on my 1931 Classic has reached its end!!!
My Unique Dependable toy typewriter is not the answer because
it's too hard to keep turning the red disc and chew gum at the same time.
Does anyone know where DSuspendA can get a replacement ribbon
I apologize for this embarrassing situation,
but I never learned how to type on any other typwewriter
and until I can locate a replacement I am unable to continue.
??????????????????????????????????
DOES LIKKER MAKE YOU SIKKER?
WILL A RIBBON IN THE NICK OF TIME TIE UP LOOSE ENDS?
IS THE TURKEY TALE JUST GOBBLE-DE-GOOK
WILL YOU ALL BE THANKFUL AGAIN NEXT WEEK
WHEN DSUSPENDA TAKES A HOLIDAY BREAK?
WILL DSUSPENDA EVER REVEAL HIS PLAN?
