VIVA LA INTERNET!




Sure, Al Gore won an Oscar and a Nobel Peace Prize, but big deal....that and $3.50 will get you a Chai Tea Latte at Starbucks. I still dont feel that Al Gore has gotten nearly enough credit in the past couple of years. I hope this doesnt leave too big of a carbon footprint when you all read this but I wanted to express some gratitude to him for his greatest contribution yet...the Internet.

As we all know, during the 70's the techmology was created for the internet. As far as I recollect, *Al Gore slaved away in his garage, driven by visions of chatrooms and E Harmony, Al wrote code after code. This visionary man's dream has come to fruition and I thought I could highlight some of the best the internet has to offer....

A great site, created by another celebrity Michael Vick. His time in prison is proving to be rather productive. This site is for not for the animal lover or the faint of heart. If you like the rawness of the animal world, you've struck gold with this one

This one is for the more discriminating animal lover. No claws or fangs, but a View (A gratuitous shot of Meredith Viera(?) to start off the clip=added bonus) of what life could be like if we were still in the Garden. Get out a kleenex, if you dont cry while watching this, your personality is more Data than Captain Kirk.

Finally, an oldie but a goodie--maybe some of you havent seen this yet. If you are serious about the dark arts (spencer, we know you are...if you werent you wouldnt try to full mount guys every saturday at the open mat), then you need to learn the art of ninjitsu. There is no better place to learn about ninjitsu than the internet and no better virtual dojo than this website. I apologize for the inevitable spike in violence that will result all over Utah once you browse this site.

The point of all of this is to thank Al "the internet" Gore for his contributions to society...and I feel there might be no better way than a list of sites that make us happy. Please, list some of your own to pay Homage to this Great American!



*The following is NOT an accurate history. Or so the W's smear campaign would have us believe

you are alive! I heard you are coming on the MWSBF cruise, if so we will be thrilled, hooray! my favorite thing about realultimatepower is the link to OPRAH. Do you think there are Ninja's who are also Oprah fans? I for sure do, think of how you could incorporate the SECRET with kicking butt.
