Bored and have web access?

But unable to access porn (for religious or corporate policy reasons)?
Inquisitive mind (we've all got inquisitive minds)?

Then check out the random page finder at Wikipedia

Four attempts, I got:

Thai Rock
rock music by Thai bands. Not sticks of confectionary with Phuket written through the centre.*

W. Ross Macdonald School for the Blind
which has special artificial lights fitted with dimmer switches. Personally I would have thought that lights in a school for the blind were somewhat redundant, maybe this is why they have artificial lights and not real ones.

Kestrel engines
Engines named Kestrel (apparently) and not the motive force behind Britains 2nd favourite indiginous bird of prey*

Kerguelen Islands
Archepelago in the southern indian ocean. Famous for: Nothing really, although it does have a population of feral cats descended from ships cats!

* Ha Ha


Still no news. AAAAaaargh

Dear Mr PC
You can't write things like that about blind people.
That's nearly as bad as when someone asked my deaf colleague whether he read braile.

Anyway, what about the teachers at the school for the blind, they can't be blind, or it would be the blind leading... oh dear, i seem to have gone awry in my own argument..

1. Edwin Hubble, shares a name with my baby brother, oh and he did something with telescopes.

2. Mongolia at the 1988 Summer Olympics.
What a topic!
They competed only in Women's Archery. Unfortunately for D. Erdenechimeg, she only made it to the preliminary round, attaining a impressive 46th place.

3. Pearl Station
Not an impressive Wikipedia entry. Relates to a single tram stop on the tram system in Dallas, Texas. Apparently convenient for Meyerson Symphony Center.

4. 5 BC
Nothing happened in this year, unless you believe the bible.

5. Flag of Bahrain
So simple, yet such a cool design. Why didn't we get this one, it's much easier to draw.
