Legend Of The Green Dragon.

Years ago I was the SySop (System Operator) of Prestige BBS. In those days I had a great online game call Legend Of The Red Dragon (L.O.R.D) by Seth Able Robinson. It was a very popular game and I sorely missed it after the demise (killed by the Internet) of the BBS.

Fotunately I came across Legend of The Green Dragon a remake of the old L.O.R.D. The game play is almost identical and even has some of the popular characters like Violet the buxom barmaid and Seth the bard. Lots of dragon and moster killing for all as well as drinking and general adventuring. A truly great game.

Swords Not Just For Chopping Off Heads!



Swords, what the hell do you do with them these days? I mean in the days of knights and dragons and stuff you could slash, stab and chop peoples heads off. Somehow I can’t see too many people getting away with that sort of thing today. Even so swords can be quite popular amongst a lot of people and there are thousands worl wide who just love to own at least one of them.

KarateDepot.com carry almost 100 different swords and swords sets. Though they focus mainly on samurai swords many other unique swords can be found. Swords are rated from collectible up to practical. Many of the practical blades are hand-forged, the same as they were made in Japan and across Asia for the last thousand years. All the swords are of high quality and represent great value. If you know a sword lover, shop the retailer you can trust. Order by Dec. 13th for $2.95 holiday delivery.

Passing Gas On The Sly!

There was once a very prim and proper older lady who had a problem with passing gas. Since she came from a generation when people didn't even talk about this kind of problem it took a long time for her to seek help. Finally, however, she was persuaded to consult her family doctor.

After she filled out all the proper forms and had waited about 20 minutes in the waiting room the doctor called her into his office, leaned back in his chair, folded his hands into a steeple and asked her how he could help.

"Doctor," she said, "I have a very bad gas problem. Yesterday afternoon I had lunch with the Secretary of State and his wife and had six, um, er, ahhh... silent gas emissions. Last night I had dinner with the governor and his wife and had four silent gas emissions. Then, while sitting in your waiting room I had five silent gas emissions! Doctor, you've got to help me! What can we do?"

"Well," said the doctor raising his voice a little, "I think the first thing we're going to do is give you a hearing test."

BlogSire's $5 Competition

I've decided to run a second competition to try and drum up interest in BlogSire's Game Palace. Unlike the first one I thought I would set it up so that it would run for a week, that way I thought I would get maximum exposure. I've picked Asteroids as the game for this week's competition. It's an old classic and the high scores are quite achievable for those who persevere with it. A tip, use the shift key to hyperspace.

Increasing Your PR Rating.

We all know how important linking is in obtaining a good PR, and that one-way links are the best. It is fairly easy obtaining a reciprocal link (where you exchange your link with another site) and a lot harder to achieve a one-way link (where another website links with yours without requiring a reciprocal link). Most SEO experts agree that Google holds one-way links as highly important and will usually give a site with lots of one-way links a higher PR. The reasoning behind this is that if a lot of sites are linking to one particular site then that site must be pretty important and hence warrants a higher PR.
How do you get these prized and highly sought after links? One such way is joining forums. Of course the best forums to join would be the ones with a high PR as well as those with a high member base. Once you have joined the forum the first thing you have to do is to adjust your signature, which is found in your profile. When doing this remember that The Elusive Pot of Gold looks a lot better than http://www.theelusivepotofgold.com/ Check out my signature at The Pot of Gold Forum to see what I mean. Now every time you post in a forum your link/links is displayed at the bottom of your post. Simple, is it not?


Forum Etiquette

The first thing to remember once you have joined is that you are in someone else domain, his or her "virtual home" so do not abuse the privilege. Most forums have rules, please read and follow them at all times.
As far as posting goes you may take note of the following guidelines.

  • Make your questions (and responses) as clear and intelligible as possible. Watch your spelling and punctuation and refrain from using "online chat" lingo and abbreviations as these tend to look less professional and may confuse many users not used to the net or whose primary language is not English

  • Your post should have a relevant subject, as this is the first thing someone will see. "Runtime Error 429 ActiveX component can't create object" will attract more viewers than”Please Help" title.

  • Don't post in a forum where you don't have something constructive to say, this is not polite and is a waste of their time as well as your own.

  • Don't just go posting without first giving a lot of thought to what you about to say. Remember your posting is a door way to your site. If you write a lot of garbage no one is going to visit your site. You may gain a better PR but you have just thrown away a huge potential customer base. If you post something intelligent or are able to solve someone’s problem you will be amazed how many visitors this will send your way

  • Remember to be polite at all times.

    Follow these rules and you will enjoy posting and with luck your PR will rise and your site will get a lot more hits.
    I host two forums one at the The Pot of Gold Forum
    another at the
    The Games Palace Forum
    and a forum which pays you to post can be found at

  • Increasing Link Popularity.



    Would you like to increase increase link popularity? If you were any sort of decent webmaster the answer to that would have to be yes. Why? Because it is essential for not only the survival of a website but in order that the site's popularity will grow thereby bringing more prospects (visitors that may convert into money)to it. Now, the obvious way to get links to your site would be to have a link exchange program. This is where you contact another site and request a link exchange. If they agree they will place a link to you on their site and you reciprocate by placing a link to theirs on your site. This is called a reciprocal link.

    Even of more value than a reciprocal link is a one way link. This means that another site links to yours but you do not link to theirs. These sort of links are harder to come by but is possible through haveing a website with great content or buy actually purchasing the link.

    The reason so many webmasters seek to increase their link popularity is to boost their PR rankings with the search engines, especially google. This for many is an arduous task which is why many seek profesional help. By having a professional, like usweb.com, look after this aspect frees up time to concentate on the other tasks required of a webmaster.

    A Blonde Pilot?

    A blonde went to a flight school insisting she wanted to learn to fly.
    As all the planes were currently in use, the owner agreed to instruct her by radio on how to pilot the solo helicopter.
    He took her out, showed her how to start it and gave her the basics, and sent her on her way.
    After she climbed 1000 feet, she radioed in.
    "I'm doing great! I love it! The view is so beautiful, and I'm starting to get the hang of this."
    After 2000 feet, she radioed again, saying how easy it was to fly.
    The instructor watched her climb over 3000 feet, and was beginning to worry that she hadn't radioed in. A few minutes later, he watched in horror as she crashed about half a mile away.
    He ran over and pulled her from the wreckage.
    When he asked what happened, she said, "I don't know! Everything was going fine, but as I got higher, I was starting to get cold. I can barely remember anything after I turned off the big fan!"

    Accessories The Mother Of Invention!



    I know, I know it's supposed to "Necessity Is The Mother Of Invention", but in the following case necessity brought about the formation of Belisi Fashions a company that deals with accessories. It's founder Peter Belisi originally was a bartender in Palm Beach who served the trendsetters in the area and actually craved to to embody their lifestyle.

    Strangely enough to achieve this end he invested his money in ties (I reckon his wife and struggling family thought this strange) and would wear a different tie every day. Soon co-workers and clientele noticed his stand out ties, ties fit for Palm Beach trendsetters and started asking for his advice. The door opened and Belisi placed his foot firmly in it.

    The Belisi Brand was then founded to enhance luxury wardrobes, while making the world a little brighter for everyone. Belisi—a name already synonymous with beauty—has earned a loyal following for its high-end, quality ties, and most recently scarves and handbags. Belisi’s guiding principle is to create Luxury with Meaning. Every time you purchase a Belisi product, you put the finishing touch on a put-together look, while fighting poverty, protecting the environment, seeking justice and funding medical research. Put simply, Belisi stands for good living: great style, quality accessories and giving back to the community. So you see for Belisi "Accessories Was The Mother Of Invention!"

    Husband's View Of A Girls Night Out.

    Two women friends had gone out for a Girls Night Out, and had been decidedly over-enthusiastic on the cocktails. Incredibly drunk and walking home they suddenly realized they both needed to pee. They were very near a graveyard and one of them suggested they do their business behind a headstone or something. The first woman had nothing to wipe with so she took off her panties, used them and threw them away. Her friend however was wearing an expensive underwear set and didn't want to ruin hers, but was lucky enough to salvage a large ribbon from a wreath that was on a grave and proceeded to wipe herself with it. After finishing, they made their way home.

    The next day the first woman's husband phones the other husband and said, "These damn girls nights out have got to stop. My wife came home last night without her panties." "That's nothing," said the other. "Mine came back with a sympathy card stuck between the cheeks of her butt that said, 'From all of us at the Fire Station, Well never forget you!'

    The Dating Game



    One of the hardest thing for a lot of single men is actually getting out there and meeting women. There could be many reasons for this. It could be too much of a hassle, the fear of rejection or maybe even that they are too damn shy. Luckily there are dating services out there you can bring together men and women together without all the hassles.

    Lovers Planet is one such dating service. They have a diverse community of single Russian women seeking men for marriage and romance. You will find many singles looking for a serious relationship. Apparently Lovers Planet understands that it takes time for a relationship to grow into marriage and their service offers profiles and photos of single Russian women and Ukraine women, as well as ladies from other countries of Eastern Europe. Most Russian brides are looking for a life partner on this site, and to them marriage is very important and they are very family orientated. So if you ask me forget the hassles and give these great looking Russians a go.

    A Musicians Dream Store.

    For those looking at buying an instrument, any sort of instrument at all, you can't go past InstrumentPro. Especially now that they are holding a Holiday Sale. They can cater for all sorts, the beginner through to the professional. They can even help DJ's with all their needs. When I mean they have everything I mean everything. You don't believe me, then I suggest you log onto their site and check out for yourself.


    How good are you at Bar Sliding. What is that you ask? Its a game where you get five full glasses of beer which you slide across the bar one at a time seeing how close you can get it to the edge without falling off. The closer to the edge you get the more points you score. If you go over the edge not only don't you get any points but you get to hear the glass break and you can just imagine the mess it makes.

    Get it right on the edge and not only will you hear the roar of the crowd, you will also score bonus points. So if you haven't done it yet play Bar Sliding now.

    We Need Lawyers, Honestly We Do!



    Lawyers provide the community with a useful service. They go beyond the fact that only lawyers are familiar with the legal jargon involved with nearly every legal document. Let us put behind us the old adage that lawyers are only there to fleece us and that they can’t be trusted. I mean really, should all lawyers be tarred with the same brush?

    I think not! Let’s face it without lawyers the majority of us would be lost if we ever found ourselves in court. They seem to have a language of their own, one that twists and turns and seem to lead nowhere especially when you are trying to understand legal documents. Thankfully there are law firms such as simmons jannace stagg who are out there to change this false perception that lawyers seem to have.

    Take the case where Thomas Stagg of Simmons, Jannace & Stagg, LLP recently obtained a ruling from the United States Bankruptcy Court in New York that clarifies a credit card company's obligation to consumers. This was a case of national significance, a ruling that was important to creditors and debtors alike. They were therefore able to reshape a particular law for the better understanding of many. This is indeed an accomplishment as unclear laws can be abused and twisted in such a fashion that lawbreakers use them to their advantage.

    BlogSire's First Contest

    Recently I ran a contest to try and drum up some interest in my latest games site. I offered five dollars to anyone who could beat Alli's score in Bloody Pinguin. It was an interesting venture, but I think that perhaps it was too easy a contest as the target was too easily achieved and therefore the contest did not run long enough. I think that perhaps the next time I shall run a contest with a time limit of say perhaps a week, where the person with the highest score will win the prize. Yep that sounds like the best bet, a least that way I can me assured some decent exposure.

    Definition Of Courage

    A bunch of generals were arguing about whose men were the most courageous when the Air Force General says to the others, "My men are the most courageous of the Armed Forces."

    "Ha!" said Army, "My men are the most courageous and I'll prove it."

    Army calls a Private over from the tower. He tells the Private, "I want you to jump off that tower - no rope, no parachute."

    "Yes, Sir!!!" the Private yells and proceeds to climb the tower. The Private walks to the edge, yells "Hoo-ahh!" and jumps off the tower. He is killed instantly upon impact.

    "That's nothing," the Air Force General said, bored. He calls a Senior Airman over. "Son, I want you to jump off that tower - no rope, no parachute and I want you to do it with style."

    "Yes, Sir!!!" the Senior Airman yells. He climbs to the top of the tower, walks to the edge and jumps. He executes a swan dive that would make Greg Louganis proud, hits the ground and dies on impact.

    "Hmmph," the Marine growled. "Ya'll obviously forgot the Marine Corps were here," he said (yelling "Marine Corps!" as all Marines tend to do.)

    He calls a Lance Corporal over. "Marine, I want you to jump off that tower and make the Corps proud!"

    The Corporal yells, "Ooh-rah!", by way of response and runs to the tower. He grabs an M-60 and ammunition belt on the way and wraps the belt around himself in the Pancho Villa style. He climbs the tower and walks to the edge. Upon reaching the edge, he throws two grenades into the air, yells "Semper Fi Do or Die!" and jumps off. He starts shooting the M-60 in mid-air, clipping treetops and yelling the entire way down. His impact is obscured by the two exploding grenades. When the smoke clears, only little pieces of the Marine are left.

    The others are impressed and nod their heads in admiration. Then the Admiral says, "That's nothing." The others turn to face the Admiral, their faces in disbelief. The Admiral calls a Seaman over who was cleaning latrines. "Son, I want you to jump off that tower- no rope, no parachute."

    The Seaman looks the Admiral in the face and says, "Screw you! You kiss my ass first!" and walks off.

    The Admiral turns to the others and says,
    "Now THAT'S courage!"
