Website Roundup

I stumbled upon a few crazy websites that I couldn't help but pass along:

Dinosaur Adventure Land
http://www.dinosauradventureland.com/index.php


This is the website for a theme park located about an hour away from where I went to high school in the panhandle of Florida. It's a creationist theme park that seems to base its theme on the idea that humans and dinosaurs were alive at the same time. The website's intro:
Dinosaur Adventure Land is a theme park and science museum that gives God the glory for His creation. It has rides and fun-filled events and activities, each involving a physical challenge, a science lesson, and a biblical truth.
Yay! The best part of the website is the Our Fossils section, where you can peruse and order replicas of your favorite ancient fossils! Included are the Pterosaur Skull Replica, the Megaraptor Claw, and this artifiact from the same era of time:


The item's description starts, "Finally, a way to display your Christian beliefs." Finally, indeed! Displaying one's overt Christian faith was near impossible before this $99.00 replica was made available. I just wish they would include a baby pterodactyl stuffed animal or something for that price.

Wholesome Wear
"Modest Clothing for Wearever [sic]"

http://www.wholesomewear.com/


Wholesome Wear is a company that specializes in (overly) modest swimwear.
Their product is an important one, they assert, because "the need for modesty in swimwear is greatest and the supply is almost non-existent." Indeed.

The company especially focuses on swimwear that "highlights the face rather than the body," which is ironic, since the people who'll buy this swimwear are the ones whose faces you'd probably rather not highlight in the first place.

Regardless, here are a few of their hot fashions, taken from their website:

Wholesome Wear really needs a better slogan guy. Allow me to summon my inner Don Draper...

"Wholesome Wear: Shift the attention from your body to your chubby, unattractive ankles."

"Wholesome Wear: Its not like anyone was going to want to have sex with you anyway."

"Wholesome Wear: Isn't what's showing already ugly enough?"
