jacqui_o's Web Picks

People spend hours surfing the web, hoping only to find that one really interesting site. Meanwhile life passes them by. Sometimes they find what they're looking for. More often, they find themselves frustrated and unsatisfied. Well darlings, I've just made it easier for you! I've weeded out the garbage, and brought to you the sexiest, most stylistic, intriguing, controversial, funny, I've-got-nothing-better-to-do-with-my-life kinda web sites, for your perusal.

http://www.longhairedmen.com Ah, this site brings me back to days gone by. There was once a time when a silky, shiny, satiny, mane on a man would make my knees buckle and my heart race, (it was a long time ago). If you can, go with the flash intro, it's priceless!

http://www.nedambler.com/ This site belongs to Ned Ambler-photographer/director. Ned's work can only be described as tastefully erotic. Make sure to go into the photo gallery, and check out "The Rites of Spring" slide show featuring Kare Neilson of the Royal Danish Ballet: those crazy Danes!

http://www.jetset.nl/vibraphone.swf Here's a little something annoying for you to play with. If you want tick off your neighbors crank the volume up as loud as you can.

http://www.viceland.com/ If you're not familiar with Vice magazine, it's a really hip, free monthly urban magazine available in select stores and cafes. Viceland is much the same featuring cutting edge music, culture, fashion, and multimedia (a lot like avivalasvegas).

http://www.knottyboy.com/ Check out this super-cool site put together by some local entrepreneurs. It's interactive, funky, what more could you want? It almost makes you want to grow dreads, which incidently according to fashionow, are all the rage in Amsterdam. Oh yeah: their Rosemary/Teatree/Peppermint Dread Shampoo Bar was recently featured in Jane magazine, (way to go guys!).

http://www.cougardate.com Well there is definitely a need for this service. You're seeing it everywhere: in the media, on the street, everywhere! Younger men are becoming hip to the fact that older women rock in bed!

http://www.bayroot.com Check it out! Bayroot is a kick-ass hip hop site with beautiful visuals, amazing beats, and great philosophy. Who needs t.v. when you have great web sites.

http://www.fashionow.com/ This recently launched fashion-zine from the U.K. offers great tips on what's hot on the streets, and on the runways. If it's international style you crave check out fashionow!

That's it for tonight boys and girls. Make sure you keep sending me those interesting links! Jacqui_o signing off, a coug in training. Meow!
