Don't forget Tarot cards and Miss Cleo's psychic hotline.

I thought Miss Cleo was doing 2-5 for fraud...... You'd think she would have seen the cops coming. buyt then if she was any good I guess they wouldn't have come for her.

The thing about Wikipedia is that it's accuracy is textured. I mean that this article about photons and what happens to them when they go through snow might be (and probably is) way more accurate than, say, the Anal_Sex article.

bullshit. The anal sex article is spot on.

I just go to wikipedia because I know I'm not going to be lead on a wild internet goose chase when looking for information.

Important Notice: MSN Encarta to be Discontinued
On October 31, 2009, MSN® Encarta® Web sites worldwide will be discontinued, with the exception of Encarta Japan, which will be discontinued on December 31, 2009. Additionally, Microsoft will cease to sell Microsoft Student and Encarta Premium software products worldwide by June 2009. We understand that Encarta users may have questions regarding this announcement so we have prepared this list of questions and answers below. Please keep reading if you would like more information about these changes to Encarta.

Why are these Encarta Web sites and software products being discontinued?
Encarta has been a popular product around the world for many years. However, the category of traditional encyclopedias and reference material has changed. People today seek and consume information in considerably different ways than in years past. As part of Microsoft’s goal to deliver the most effective and engaging resources for today’s consumer, it has made the decision to exit the Encarta business.

Shorter Microsoft: Wikipedia kicked our asses.

Why pay for sex with a skank when hot naked chicks are running wild for free?
