  5. Military Corruption

    Wow. This site has text harder to read than my handwriting... Well, perhaps not that bad, but you get the point.

  6. KimCartoon

  7. Valley Isle Aquatics

  10. Cloud 9 Walkers

    Aww, look! Little Billy has made his first website! It's so good! Oh, I can't lie, it's abysmal. A rotting, repugnant pile of festering, fecal matter is this website.
