 Many thanx to Flung! the website, for making us Flung of the Day! Flung! is sort of a mixed-bag site, whose neatest feature is Flunging Around, which will "flung you to different sites each time you visit." In three reloads, we got flung to Action Girl Online, the Internet Movie Database, and Apple Computer.
Since AtAT is a family show, we should note that areas of Flung! are, er, "adult-oriented." If you have a "sensitive nature," you may want to avoid the nude babes/bikini babes section. You're safe in their web tips section, as well as in Flunging Around (although we can't speak for where you may get flung-- you know what those Apple folks are like, for instance).
Is it just us, or are these awards getting weirder? ;-)

 | | The above scene was taken from the 10/22/97 episode: October 22, 1997: (Sorry—this was before we started writing intro text for each episode!)
Other scenes from that episode: 108: Billy the Bully (10/22/97) Mmmm boy, all of the seedy details are coming out in the latest courtroom drama involving Microsoft vs. the U.S. Department of Justice. (We only wish that Judge Wapner hadn't retired.) While the trial isn't open to the public, CNN reports that the DoJ called some major PC manufacturers to the stand to testify as to the character of the defendant, when the fur started to fly. First up was a tearful Compaq, obviously shaken before the watchful eye of their oppressive OS pusher... 109: Intel, Digital Make Up (10/22/97) Meanwhile, in another courtroom, longtime chip rivals Intel and Digital are rumored to be settling their differences-- to the tune of $1.6 billion. Happily, the settlement does not involve the sale of Digital's Alpha chip to Intel, as was widely reported a couple of weeks ago... 110: Newton, Schmewton (10/22/97) Just when it looked like the future of Newton and the MessagePad was secure, the bottom fell out of the dream. Or so reports thessaSOURCE and others. It's only been a couple of days from the rosiest point in Newton's recent history; on Monday, Apple announced the MessagePad 2100, thus alleviating much grief among the Newton faithful who were waiting for the MessagePad to get "Steved."...
