This is my information page and I hope it is helpful. You can find links to camping in southern Wisconsin, camping-related sites, and a lot more... But later on I add to it as the mood strikes! So beware! But you might just find something to suit your fancy... New camping info & fun links! Scoop's DISCLAIMER: My lawyer says to tell you that I am not responsible for anything you choose to buy from these sites, nor any other stuff that might happen because you checked them out. When I looked at them, they were good sources of info, etc. Being the busy guy I am, what with helping Mrs. Scoop with the laundry and dishes, a fate that befalls all married men, I don't often get a chance to check my own links. If you spot a problem, please let me know. I'll probably be out mowing the lawn, but I'll get right to it, rest assured. For 'Strange but True' Tales of Camping, just click here to go HOME!

Don't miss Pete's "Ten Steps To Being A Totally Obnoxious Camper". You'll agree with every word...unless you are one, you idiot.

And let's remember that 'camping' doesn't have to mean you have to 'rough it'...
You've got "Scoop's Scary Stories" to tell around the campfire, but how about some true scary stuff to keep you awake at night? Here's two great sites that'll do the trick: www.w-files.com The W-Files has been posting Wisconsin paranormal sightings since 1997, including UFOs and aliens, Bigfoot, crop circles, lake monsters, legends, an expanded ghosts section and more, along with links to other great sites, one of which is UFOWisconsin, at www.ufowisconsin.com, "your complete source for up-to-date Wisconsin UFO sightings and information". Think about this next time you're gazing at the stars: Wisconsin is 2nd only to New Mexico in UFO sightings..! These are two fantastic sites, both of which have won numerous awards, fully deserved. And hey--sometimes I just get mesmerized by the graphics! WARNING!!! I got on the Yahoo-group message thing, and I enjoy the conversations, but you'll get a lot of e-mail from newcomers talking about abductions by aliens, etc. But maybe that's a good thing...
MR. LUCKY www.mrlucky.com I was once known as "Mr. Lucky", and I found this site while trying to register the name. I'm glad they have it--it's a "musical communique" full of music and cocktails, right up my alley! I found the perfect martini recipe here. I am happy. FRANK SINATRA www.franksinatra.com Just one of many Sinatra sites. Check this out and put away the AC/DC for a nite, guys. Remember, Nice 'n Easy does it every time! WARNING! I think this site is gone, Baby, gone. But just check any of the other Frank sites. I'll do it for you after I finish mowing the lawn... STEVE LIPPIA www.steve-lippia.com Steve is a Frank-style singer, but never an imitator. I saw him in Vegas with the Vince Falcone orchestra (Vince was with Frank for many songs), and they knocked the crowd out. He sings good, man! Buy his new CD. Go, Steve, go!
BOB FUGATE recently shut down worthlessadvice. Said Bob: "It was a collection of everything you never wanted to know but were told anyway." When pressed, Bob added: "I'm a freelance writer living in Crystal Lake, Ill. I wrote beer ads and other writing that includes radio, TV, print and matchbooks. ('Close cover before striking' was one of my best ideas.')". I think he's kidding...about the matchbook thing, I mean. Anyway, my 'Goofy' spot was then a void, a drifting, empty hole, until two goofy guys came up with a great idea...
"Well blow me down, or walk the plank, wench!" Get ready for 'Talk Like A Pirate' Day! Learn new lingo and impress your friends! Pick up girls! Or maybe not...
Thanks to Bob Becker and Joyce Killian for some great links! More to come!
SCOOP EXPLAINS HIS SECRET SPOT: I'm not being mysterious, nor does this involve that place I like to be tickled--this is the spot where I list my own musings...
I get many requests (OK--3 or 4!) for links, but, alas, few are chosen. I have standards, you know. However, this is a case where I asked to include a link, because I think Doug's camping cartoons and artwork are great! Check this site out; his artwork is available for what I consider a steal. I'm thinking of using Frik for my Christmas cards, and I know he has great deals for newspapers and other publications. Even if you're not buying, you can spend a cool hour checking out his work! You can see a preview right below this one...
You can check out a cartoon Frik (Doug) drew for a collaboration we are doing at my 'Scary Stories' page.
SCOOP SAYS: Feel free to suggest links; just keep the theme: camping, you know...yeah, right! The Bugle Updates Scary Stories Drink & Dine Email Bio Scoop Responds
