Links to Some of My Favorite Web Sites
 

Live Links for the Dead:
        Grateful Dead Home-Page (click here)
                    (the place to go for D's Ps)
        Dead Set-Lists (searchable!) (click here)
                    (pretty useful in verifying the date and place of those napster files we all don't have)
        Annotated Lyrics (click here)
                    (bizarre. Often makes this historian VERY suspicious, but has some cool stuff. Of course, if the deconstructionists
                    are right, then this is the DEFINITIVE interpretation of Hunter's lyrics)

Potables for Sale
        Carolina Wine Company (click here)
                    (run by excellent folks, with an eye for quality at reasonable prices. Check out those Rhones!)
        Wine Exchange (click here)
                    (big, kinda impersonal, but chock full of good stuff. Shipping's an issue to the East, however)

News and Other Important Information
        If you've lived in small market media towns like we have, you need to be able to find the real deal when you need it

                The New York Times on-line (Click here)
                        What more? The main line for news-junkies
                        For fun and games, compare its coverage with the local fish-wrapper's

                The Boston Globe (click here)
                        Ignore the news and head straight to the sports page ....

                The Onion (click here)
                        The antidote to the sanctimonies of Dan, Pete and Tom.
 

Sports and Other Entertainment

        Boston Bruins (click here)
            (What else did you expect?  Bring on old-time, Garden-style Hockey! Go Bs!)
 

Interior Decorating (yup, it's true)

        The Arts and Crafts Society (click here)
                Cool links and info to one of our favorite periods in art and architecture. But who can afford those prices?
 

Fun and Highjinks

        The Lileks Institute (click here)
                Let the irony, scorn, and barbed humor flow. Beware, pop culture of the past!
                        I particular like his attack on food ads of the 40s-50s (click here)

        Click, Clack and their Shameless Commerce (click here)
                What's not to love? Once again irony and scorn meld with some useful info ...
 

Some other, lesser entertainment (to the Bs, that is)

        Sci-Fi.Com (click here)
                A guide to virtual sci-fi. Some of it's actually good.

        Farscape (click here)
                The real reason to go to Scifi.com
