Never met a link I didnt like

Yes, you are right. I am paraphrasing one of the most popular and well-known humorists of all time, Will Rogers. Remember, he is the one who said, "I never met a man I didnt like."
I believe he was saying that there is some good in everyone if you will only look for it. That no matter how evil or bad a person may be, you can always find something that you can like about them.
Having spent several years surfing around the internet, it seems to me the same philosophy could be applied to the sites online.
Yes, there are some really neat sites out there that are very well designed, easy to surf and just chocked-full of great links and useful information. These are the ones we all like.
Then there are some that make us almost nauseous when they load into our browser. The purple and yellow combinations seem to hit me the hardest.
You know the ones I mean. They have the dancing gerbils and the flashing arrows with lots of banners and links to all the affiliate programs offered.
For those of you interested there are sites like: http://worst25sites.netfirms.com/ that highlight the worst sites of the web.
If one can get past the initial revulsion, however, it is just possible that they do offer some useful information; some redeeming quality; some glimmer of a gem that you can take away from the visit.
One of Will Rogers strongest qualities was his ability to find humor in about anything. Humor is a very good touchstone of your own sanity online and off. Keep it light. Enjoy the experience.
It would be a very boring internet if all sites online were just cookie-cutter, look-a-likes, wouldnt it ?
Variety. The internet has lots of it. One can find virtually anything that they want online. The wealth of information available is just mind-boggling !
Your site doesnt seem so bad now, does it ?
Best of luck in your online efforts !
