Hello Everyone!!!!
Well, here it is, my favorite time of the year, JULY!!! This weekend in America it's Independance Day, what a great holiday! And, as if you didn't already know, I have a 4th of July Marching Page! Yes, it's true! You mean I haven't completely bombarded you with it already???? I hope that this heat wave lasts, (I just love those 90 temperatures!) and that there are tons of fun bar-B-ques this weekend (Also a favorite of mine :) But outside isn't the only place where it's hot, hot, hot (Okay, prepare for me to get REALLY cheesy now!) Because the links in this issue are SIZZLING just like the sun! So turn on your air conditioners and scroll down for this weeks white hot issue!

This site is a gem for inquiring minds. Have you ever wondered how stuff works? What is root beer and how is it made? Here's one that I've always wondered, Why do all FM radio stations end in an odd number? You know? There's 1210 and 610 on AM, and then there's 100.3 and 102.9 on FM...how come there is no 102.4???? Find out at this site! Also you can answer that age old question: Which came first, the chicken or the egg? once and for all! There are hundreds of interesting Q & A's on this site!
Welcome to How Stuff Works

How would you like to convert English into different languages? I don't mean going to AltaVista and changing to French. I mean going to the Dialectizer! On this webpage you can change English to such fun languages as REDNECK! ELMER FUDD! MORON! PIG LATIN and MORE!!!!! Yes, I didn't even know some of these were languages but apparently they are and you can convert them! How much fun it is!

Now be honest here. When you get a package in the mail, and it's covered in that plastic bubble wrap don't you get all excited? Don't you waste away your life by delightfully popping those little bubbles??? Well, ok, maybe I'm the only one who does that. But now there is a website where you can virtually pop those little bubbles!!! How cool is that? Go to Bubblewrap to take pleasure in squashing those little bubbles!!!
Also, from this site are other fun virtual experiances, such as the virtual snack machine. I ordered a Kit-Kat. Get there while there are still some snacks left!

After that virtual snack you just might get thirsty so visit the Virtual Soda Machine for a quick drink to wash it all down.

Here's a dancing page for ya! Look on the bright side of things, see the sun and the fun! It's summer! What more can you ask for than dancing sunglasses???? "Bright Side of Life" Dance Page

Make sure that you visit my X-files Pretzel Adventure Page! This site has about 7 original X-files adventures, written by my friend Lisa. They are very funny and entertaining! The newest adventure is FOWLEY MEETS THE GARBAGE DISPOSAL

Do you have an interesting webpage that does fun, interesting stuff? A page that would fit in with all the wackiness of Meg's Linkapoolza? If you do, please email me at Beach2gal82@yahoo.com the link, and tell me a little bit about the site. If I feel that it would mesh perfectly with the other sites of craziness I will put it in Linkapoolza!

Well, That's all from me on this BEAUTIFUL 4th of July Weekend! I hope that you enjoy the holiday with good ol' American fun, and if you aren't from America, then have a great weekend anyway, but just for fun's sake stop by my The 4th of July March because it's.... It's just fun! (Come on, I have to get as many shameless plugs in for the Independance march as possible this weekend, right???!!)
Have a great July, and I'll cya next week!!!
