Send us your (tasteful) crazy websites!

Dr. Sebright is collecting lists of crazy (in good taste) websites, to expand his list beyond his favorite one, www.pregnantmale.com.  These lists will be used in instruction sessions to provide examples showing the need to constantly evaluate Internet information, due to its lack  of policing or editing.  Email your contribution to tsebright@sctech.edu.

Remember that these websites, while they may be false and misleading, they must be tasteful, so that any website submitted should rate a G or PG.  No R's or X's, please.
