ART:

Need some new wallpaper for your computer desktop? Try the pictures at these two wonderful sites:

• Carol Gerten's Fine Art
• Webmagick

BOOKS:

• Amazon.com has an extraordinary array of books to sell, great discounts on many of them -- and some of the best customer service I’ve ever received.

ENTERTAINMENT:

• All-Music Guide -- terrific database, searchable by artists and titles
• SongHits -- maybe my second favorite site on the entire web, this contains songs (oldies, country, classic rock, even big band) from the last seven decades, available in their entirety using RealAudio. They even take requests!
• Graceland -- the official Elvis site, with lots of things about the King
• The Internet Movie Database -- my vote for THE BEST site on the Web!
• Ultimate TV -- everything you’d ever want to find about TV and your favorite shows

FUN AND GAMES:

• The Bingo Zone -- free Bingo games and Acey-Deucey for small cash prizes
• DuJour -- new games each day for prizes
• Internet Card Central -- send a postcard on the Web to your friends!
• The Movie Quote Contest -- identify a quote, and replace it with one of your favorites
• TrippyHippy's Coloring Book -- a totally relaxing experience to make you feel like a kid again (unless, like me, you haven't grown up yet!)
• Washington Post Crossword Puzzles -- not only a pleasure to work on-line (no erasing, just deleting!), the Post gives both daily AND Sunday puzzles
  

HOW BIZARRE!

• Casebook: Jack the Ripper -- all true crime sites should be this good! A crime buff’s dream
• Fortean Times Online -- from the supernaturally sublime to the ridiculous
• Strange Magazine -- Kind of an American Fortean Times, and just as strange (hence the title)
• The Urban Legends Archive -- all those stories you’ve heard from "a friend of a friend"
• The Urban Legends Reference Pages -- Great research on urban legends telling which are true and which aren't; several categories here, including "Tales of the Wooden Spoon", a catch-all category for those legends that don't fit anywhere else.

PETS:

• Allpets is one of the best pet sites I’ve found on the Web, with good, helpful information as well as beautiful pictures of all sorts of animals and breeds.
• CatStuff
