Totally Off The Record
Totally off the record is the place to share and enjoy anonymous
work stories. Read a few stories, forward your favorites to
co-workers and friends even share your own story. There are
a lot of funny ones and some that sound like one of my typical
workdays! Totally Anonymous. Totally Work Related. Totally
Fun. And best of all, Totally Off The Record.

The Lost Art of the Short Story
While serious readers and writers bemoan the long, slow decline
of the short story, Short Stories at East of the Web lifts
the perfect literary form to the top.
The Story of the Day or the Month, the Top Six and winners
of sponsored competitions can be browsed by category, title,
author or keyword and then read online, printed or downloaded
for reading offline or on handheld devices. Click on an author's
name to see all of his or her stories, further information
and links, or register for your own bookshelf to store favorite
tales to read later.

Brunswick's Virtual Bowling
Who says bowling is boring? Pick up the Zone, Rhino or Quantum
bowling ball and step up to take your shot at Brunswick's
Cosmic Web Bowling, where balls wobble, curve, leap or slow
to a crawl and each successive game is played on a different
lane, dry or soiled, so that no two games are alike. All I
could accomplish were gutter balls, so it's very realistic!

Cricklers
This is a game site that's more to my liking. Crossword puzzles,
addictive though they are, can be a big pain - either too
hard or too easy, matching clues to numbers, thinking up obscure
words that no one ever uses. Chronic puzzlers might want to
try out Cricklers.com, where the crossword puzzle is reinvented
for the computer age.
Cricklers, say inventors Michael and Barbara Crick, are more
adaptable, becoming easier or harder with the skill of the
solver. Feed your addiction with News puzzles; WordZap, a
dictionary game; Enigma, a classic quotation cipher, or any
number of word games.
