My Mother-in-Law, on Why She Loves the Internet
As a mother, grandmother and teacher, I am often online. I try to answer my email at least three times each week. I also have a Facebook account, which I try to get on at least once a week. It's a good way to stay in touch with friends who I don't see often. Also, it's a great way to share photos with my children and family who live out of town. I tried Twitter, but cannot get into it. I don't ...
A Refined Mike Tyson Drinks Tea, Discusses Cannolis (Video)

Will Mike Tyson take on the New York City Pigeon Crew? Does Mike Tyson still have a face tattoo? The answer to all these questions (yes, yes, yes, yes, yes) and more are revealed in the video -- Mike Tyson's ...
Convert Your Favorite Photos Into ASCII Art
At the world wide web's infancy of the early 90s, long before Web 2.0, during Web 1/3, people couldn't use Google Images or Flickr to amass photographic collections of Right Said Fred or "huge beards." Even today, with our technological developments of database management, searching for "huge beard" is considered NSFW (not because the pictures are inappropriate, but because some bosses don't ...
A Free Peep Show of the Hottest Chicks on the Web
With the exceptions of that naked lady taking a shower in public, all those totally nude hotties who ride hogs, and our uncensored exposé on hot naked stars, Urlesque usually doesn't cover porn on the web. With Easter just around the corner, it's time to resurrect this rare sort of coverage. How could anyone not want to wrap their lips on the sweet supple curves and spreads of hot ...
Chick in a Box - The Best Peep Dioramas of All Time
In American schools, where education is of the utmost importance, the diorama is a common exercise. Nothing shows a firmer grasp of the sociopolitical ramifications of Columbus' arrival in the Americas more than crayon art pasted into an empty Kleenex container. Since 2007, the Washington Post has taken this staple of scholarly erudition and applied it to Easter's favorite corn syrupy ...
The "Ultimate Matzoh-Ball Game" Tops All Other Matzoh Ball Games
My Aunt Selma's matzoh balls are like bowling balls in both consistency and flavor. Maybe worse, since minty chewing gum residue has, on occasion, adhered to the side of a bowling ball. I've never been a great fan of eastern European cuisine, but when coupled with Selma's miserable cooking skills, it makes me want to retch. Now, the internet has shown me a deeper spirtual cause for the ...
Bill Paxton Pinball - Where 'Titanic' and Super Coolness Collide...Again
Bill Paxton's Wikipedia page needs dire updating. While it does mention his role as "Punk Leader" in "The Terminator," it fails to mention his second greatest achievement: starring in his very own pinball machine! Console modder extrodinaire Benjamin Heckendorn spent the past five years constructing and programming the Paxton-themed pinball game from scratch. Ben clearly has big love for the ...
Incredibox Lets You Make the Music With Your Mouse, Biz
Bm pb. Bm pb. Bm pb. Wiki wah wiki wiki wiki wah. I know I'm not the best online beatboxer on the world wide web, but I do consider my virtual beats to be moderately phat, amply off da hook and adequately da bomb. But they're still inferior to Biz Markie and Rahzel, that one guy who beatboxes with his entire body at JFK and all those birds. Now, thanks to three French dudes -- Alan Duran, ...
Here's That Video of a German Girl Identifying "Star Wars" Figures With Her Tongue You Requested
Share digg_url = 'http://www.urlesque.com/2010/03/11/german-girl-star-wars-legos-tongue-video/'; A mouth is an awesome apparatus capable of so much more than just swallowing, or teeth art, or some combination of the two. We know about its power to lay down tight beats via parakeets. We know it allows Fran Drescher to make out with her pomeranian. We know it's a perfect vessel for a ...

As the mooniker implies (impalas?), the porpoise of the site is to fawnction as an aggregator (alligator?) of ratty animal-based bird play(typus) from newt papers and producks.
