Supposedly, this goofy website was featured in some major publications, back in the day.

This site, along with the four others listed below (and a few more I didn't bother to link), are the work of one Tom Blackwell, who will remain a complete mystery because his personal page appears to be defunct. Anyway, these five sites let you add whatever zany text you want to the photos. Let your imagination run wild!
