An Extravaganza of Classy Surfing
This site is designed for the 50+ Friends Club,
an internet club for seniors. In other words...
"A SITE FOR OLDER EYES"

.

Pick the month, year and/or the  theme and revisit these classy sites. Being
somewhat dated, some sites may have expired and for that we
apologize. BTW, the Duke is always looking for suggestions.

So, Pull Up A Chair And Sit A Spell !

Scary Choice OCTOBER, 1996
Scary!!!
This page is one of my favourites. I guess it's because we can act goulish and justify that behaviour during Halloween. These clever, but scary sites display marvelous graphics. Caution: I am not responsible if you wet your pants.
Funny Choice 1996
Comedy!!!
Plant a smile on your face. Visit the most whimsical sites on the net. A laughable (he said--she said) routine was used for this review. Laugh until it hurts.
Musical Choice 1996
Music!!!
This was a pleasure for the Duke - he has a Sound Blaster Awe32 sound card and can appreciate all the melodious midi sounds these classy sites offer. Some of the best midi collections on the net - bar none.
Memorial Choice JANUARY, 1997
Happy New Years!!! It was the start of a new year so this Duke of Url page is about past happenings. I'm sorry but the last will of Jackie Kennedy has been removed - still, there's lots of great stuff left to ramble though.
Lovely Choice 1997
Love Bugs!!! This page is about love, joy, sadness, elation and humour. Tastefully presented so that, young or old, we may all enjoy the pursuit of happiness on the WWW. Not much has to be said on this subject. Yeah right!

Lucky Choice

1997
Bunnies and Leprechauns!!! St Patrick's Day and Easter offer plenty of excitement. Great gobs of stuff about Ireland and the Easter sites are viewable all year round. Try using Ireland's search engine and look up the IRA.

Colorful Choice

1997
Colorful or what!!! Spring cleaning, gardening and colorful, world citizen pages are featured here. Visit typical Russians at home, a Japanese Bath House and plenty more interesting but unusual sites.

Mysterious Choice

1997
Surprise!!! It's mystery, suspense and the enthralling-- this page is about chasing the unexpected around the web and arriving at the unknown (does that make any sense?). It will if you are an amateur detective.

Wet Choice

1997
Splish Splash!!! Bring a towel and drop in on this heated pool of things that go splash in the night. A spiritual swim with the dolphins is a nice way to end this experience.

Cool Choice

1997
Let's Rock!!! Only for those who want to relive the 50's. The beginning of Rock & Roll, 50's trivia and who could forget SPOOK DANCING. Can't believe that was over forty years ago.

Exciting Choice

1997
Classy affaire d'amour!!! Experience the world's beauty, bazaar and buffoonery. Jump aboard the yellow cab and we'll do cocktails at the Ritz and have breakfast at Brennan's.
Crafty Choice 1997
Recess is over!!! To avoid cabin fever visit these sites and get a handle on art, crafts, collecting and hobbies. Try ballooning, piano playing, canoe making. This page is an internet class room which made the Duke proud.
Drop in on the Dukes FEBRUARY 1998
New Format!!! Introducing the Duchess. February's edition is probably more sexist than funny-- I appologize for the Duchess.
Drop in on the Dukes 1998
March edition of the Duke and Duchess  is about spring of '98 and among other things, features a great animation of Clinton.
Drop in on the Dukes 1998
April is a friendly month, as I perceive it, so we decided to review the sites of cyber-friends. It also offered an excellent opportunity for the Duchess to learn more about  the Duke's friends. She was delighted with what she discovered and so will you.
Drop in on the Dukes 1998
May is a hodgepodge month, full of potential and a wiff of magic. Keeping Duchess at the computer was very difficult - our early spring weather was drawing her into the garden. Some-how, we put this edition together... whew.
Drop in on the Dukes 1998
June is for all the would-be webmasters and personal homesite builders. There is also fantastic and creative help for graphic artists and PhotoShop fans.
Drop in on the Duke and Duchess 1998
The Duchess is making up for last months techy stuff. She has taken the reigns for July and just wants to party. Games, Quizs, Magic, Tricks and Fun seem to be all that's on her mind this month. I don't know about her selection of music though - is she trying to say something?
Drop in on the Duke and Duchess 1998
Neil Diamond's "Robert E Lee" sets the mood for September's Duke presentation. Some excellent links and a background that may be considered on the square side. Have fun folks.
Drop in on the Duke and Duchess 1998
A real mix-mash of places and things to visit for October's Duke presentation. Some Halloween sites and even a site to slice up a frog. One never knows what to expect these days. The only thing for sure is that the Internet has something for everyone.

It will be interesting to revisit in a few months and view the events with tomorrow's eyes. Looking for recommendations folks so if you have a few good bookmarks, email me. Thanks.
Let's Go Hopping May 1999, this was a great month for the Duke, almost 75% of the sites were recommended by friends. Saved a lot of hunting and pecking. There's a mom's day special at Lycos that you may find interesting.

For August we have a few more interesting links, varied and informative. There is this one link by a guy that likes to send tongue-in-cheek letters to companies, it is very humerous.
Let's Go Hopping 1999
Gawdy colors await you in the September edition of the Duke. The links this month are busy as a bee, the song however, is a bit of a bumble.
1999
Halloween, old 50's song lyrics, hand writing, and many other interesting sites this month folks. Have fun. 
1999
November has some of those "I didn't know that!" sites. Something for everybody, but nothing about Christmas... too early and not selling anything.
1999
December is that special time when we are too buzy to worry, too confused to worry, too overwhelmed to worry and so we should relax and visit a few friends. Nothing like a visit from a worry-free friend. *sigh*
2000
The Millennium is here, or is it? The big question is answered here plus many more interesting sites. Many sites are based on a time theme this month, thought is was appropriate. Happy Year 2000 folks.
2000
Another Valentine's Day rolls along and this month we handle a few details which will make that holiday run a little smoother -for the romantics out there. There is also a cake recipe which should be tried. 
2000
March and getting close to spring. The Irish have the big slice of the pie this month folks. Why? Could have something to do with St. Patrick's Day or the Irish may just be lucky this month. 
2000
Easter is held late in April this year so look for great sites to do with easter, bunnies, etc. Spring is also here so you can expect some helpful gardening sites as well. Hope you enjoy.
2000
May and Mother's Day and plenty of interesting sites to view this month. Wooden shoes, nose hair, sore toes, what do they have in common?
2000
For June we have decided to present Dad with some roses and a lot of great sites to browse. Moms and others will get a kick out of Dad as he takes the time to smell the thorny things.
2000
The month of July celebrates two patriotic days. One for the USA and one for Canada. What are they called? Visit here and discover the fun and thrill of seeing fascinating sites on the Internet.

The month of September is always a surprise. In the middle of a beautiful summer day here in Burks Falls, WHAM!!! Green turns to gold, red, yellow, orange, beige, etc.
2000
The month of October is an interesting month, Thanksgiving Day in Canada, Columbus Day in USA, Yom Kippur and Halloween. The Duke covers them all with interesting, classy sites. And if you catch his hat in the third flip, you will get a big surprise!
2000
The month of November leaves but a few days to shop before Christmas. However, I refuse to do what I have done in the past - present a bunch of web shopping sites. Nope, you're just going to have to search, or click last years link and hope they are still in business.
