What are some of your favorite websites when you need to waste some time (other than discuss cooking of course).

One of my favorites is http://www.fark.com/. It is a great site that has links to tons of interesting stories.

ronjohn, have you ever made mead? it's made from honey, right? i've had it in a few pubs, not bad, but i'll stick to guinness and bass...

ever have an irish car bomb? it's a boilermaker, made by putting a shot of bushmill's or jameson's into a pint o' guiness. that'll get the blarney started....

Yep, made plenty of mead. Even have a bronze medal from a national competition to show for one of them. That particular one was of the margarita persuasion. Honey, limes, oranges, and agave nectar. All fermented out to taste like a sweet margarita. Never had it in pubs, but did bring back a macadamia blossom mead from Maui that was very nice.

Never had the car bomb that I can remember. I've done boilermakers before, but never recall one with guiness.
