They just found Dog News this week, along with some other odd sites. You gotta love a site with a banner that says Visit T-shirt Hell. Corey and Jay are constantly finding funny and strange sites:

InsultMonger.com - "...thousands of quality insults, putdowns, comebacks, funny insulting quotations, witty one-liners, hilarious jokes, random insult generators, foreign languages swear words/phrases and insulting wavs." My3cents.com - consumer comments and reviews on just about everything. Compliments, complaints and just useful information.  [From the Corey and Jay Show]
