Random Websites

Greetings and welcome back to The Un-Zone, the semi-regularly updated website on the Internet for all things related to Un. It's time for yet another scheduled update, just so things don't get too stale. This update is all about some of the stranger sites I've found on the Internet.

This first is a self-described site devoted to "stuff you'd never need to know but your life would be incomplete without." You get to learn about Aspirin, Q-Tips, a man who made things out of matchsticks, and why being a male honeybee is not a good thing (after you mate with the female, your genetalia explode). Just so you know.

This site is well...strange yet useful, if you ever wonder if that jar of peanut butter is "safe" to consume, despite it sitting in the fridge for several months. I do not vouch for the accuracy of this table, but it might prevent food poisoning of a most painful sort. It's a lot more accurate than the "is it growing fuzz" test that some might use. There's other weird stuff on this site also. Something about Discordianism...

A look at security guidelines from the National Security Agency. Enough said. There's some other interesting stuff on that site also.

Need some information about Urban Legends? Then check this site, which has information about lots of hoaxes and urban legends. Or you could go to Snopes.

That's all for now.
