Hey people, I accidentally found this site........http://maddox.xmission.com/
and I felt I should share it.......It is freak'n hillarious.
He refers to it as The Best Page in the Universe.
I am listing it here because it has some stuff in there that could be fake (Come from his own imagination), but looks like it is real, I believe it is a well thought of site. The guy that runs it has had it since 1997.
Tasteless and offensive? As much as piratically possible, Maegan.

It's actually Ben STILLER, not Ben Stein. And I don't know why you bothered giving the link, since over 100 million people have been there. You may as well also give the link to yahoo or google, because if someone doesn't know Maddox, then they're beginners on the net.

Also, my site just started, feel free to visit it if you like. I'll be updating once a week, so check back for new articles. I don't know if advertising your site in here isn't allowed.

Right...insult someone here...but then ask us all to visit you. Makes sense.
...because if someone is inept enough to wander on to a forum and insult people at random, before trying to get them to go to their site, then they're beginners on the net...
And to also add, unfortunately I never have come across that page before, although I have been on the net since it basically came out.....So I apologize, Danny, for wanting to share an interesting site with people.
I went to yours, wasn't interesting because you just put stuff there that I already read in the news.....Unfortunately your URL was somehow mistaken for Spam and deleted by me, ooops.... I mean, ummm, someone.
Have a great LIFE!!!

...I do have to add that b/c a page has a million hits doesn't mean that a million people have been there. My counter used to "update" a hit every time I refreshed it when I was putting code into it. And someone might visit more than once, and make the counter roll over again. Plus, you can basically set those counters at whatever you want.

...We really tear into outsiders...we'll need to tone down a bit I think.
Thats ok....An outsider that comes in and insults people isn't someone we want in the forum.

Maddox's site is very popular indeed, sure there's probably no more than a few hundred thousand people who visit his site, but I remember reading one of his articles about the overall ranking of his site. He says he beat out Mcdonalds, Pepsi, and a bunch of other high paying companies on popularity.
Oh, here it is: Said Article

I found the site funny, but I was sorely tempted to email him asking "would you like some cheese with that whine?"
Well, I believe thats what he feeds on, emails like that. He is expecting them, and ignorant people give in as if they don't seem to understand exactly what he is doing.
