This week we have more fun of you to enjoy, including looking at The Beatles' "Help!"... or not seeing that I didn't have time to fully write down what I thought of it... uh, we also have more links, but that's nothing all that new... uh I guess this is a short one. ------------------------------------------------- >WE HAVE A NEW WEBSITE : https://neozones.club Everyone at NeoZones is very excited to announce that we have a new website that we want to show off to you! Over the past months, we have been wanting to move from our current host, Neocities, to one that will allow us to do a whole bunch more things, so that's why we bought a domain! Yes, that's right, this is us making a call-out post on our NeoZones dot club - Kyle Drake is a bitch-ass motherfucker, he pissed on my fucking source code! Gurr, gurr. As of now, the new NeoZones is just a mirror of our Neocities site, but we will of course be adding new content to it all of the time, we also have plans to re-do the layout of the entire site (Oooo!), and we are also thinking of inviting people to join us, meaning that we'll be even more like a tilde (oh, also the Penny's Pages Wiki has moved to our new domain). Hope you enjoy the new site! ------------------------------------------------- >ASCII OF THE NOW The ASCII of The Now is a weekly thing we do where we dig threw the old archives of forgotten websites, finding ASCII art that time forgot. _ __....---------------. _.-'' | ,:'_ \__ '._`-.,--- `. / _.-' | _ ,'',-.`. |_____ `-:_`-.,- \ / / _.- | | `. ,' : `-' ;_,'---. `--..__`-:._`-`' /,'__. : |: `.' o-'`---' | | .--`---<----<:-..__ / |::--._. __.-' _ |.--.-'---. )-,. \\`. . \ |: ,. `'`.,' , , / |:| _| ,' ,`-/ \ \\ `. : |_,' `-. _.',' (_ |:| _| _,','`- / \ \`. | `-.__ [|_| ||:|__,','`--- / \ \ ` | `-..._______.:..-----' SSt \_`. | `-.' As taken from Douglas Adams' 1978 book, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the Babel fish is probably the oddest thing in the Universe. It is a small, bright yellow fish, that when put in the ear of someone, will allow them to hear any language translated into their native one. https://owlman.neocities.org/ascii.html#SSt https://web.archive.org/web/20160606014619/http://ascii-art.surfhome.de/content.php?id=h2g2 ------------------------------------------------- >CHECK THIS SHIT OUT! They say looking at TV will turn your eyes square, that never happened to anyone we know, so we guess that it would be fine to also browse the web for 23-hours-a-day, Hell, if it won't for us browsing the web so much, how would we have found all of these links? Got you there, mom and dad! : 6DOOMERS 2 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EO849hbGP-c As posted by fraggle (who he himself is the current head of the Chocolate Doom port), here is a long forgotten but re-found movie originally from the Doom Damnit! website, as dated 2000-04-17, meaning that as of this month, it is now over 20-years-old! : HISTORY OF THE URL : https://blog.cloudflare.com/the-history-of-the-url/ Wanted to know all about the history of our dear old URL? Well you do now so read it. : NTERVIEW WITH NEOCITIES CELEBRITY DANN! : https://yoohoosearch.neocities.org/theneocitiestribune/articles/042020.html As taken from The Neocities Tribune (why aren't you following them yet?), Personally Comfy (or personally-comfy) did an interview with Dann of dannarchy.com, who talks about their personal history of GeoCities, fan pages, and being on the WWW since 1994 - check it out! : RADIOOOOO : http://radiooooo.com/ A great site that you probably forgot about, but here it is; play music from around the world! Here at NeoZones, we're suckers for 1970s Britain, but don't that stop you from exploring something new and unexpected Want to hear music from 1960s France? Enjoy 1920s American music? Can't get enough of 1990s Australian music? Well, looks like this is the site for you. : CREEPY THIGNS ON THE INTERNET : https://reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/5khsx4/whats_the_creepiest_thing_that_happened_on/ Thanks to : DISTROTEST.NET : https://distrotest.net/ Ever wanted to have an easy place to test operating systems but you are too lazy to install them?

The font was made on 1994-03-15, then was converted by Kent Nassen <kentn@cyberspace.org> on 1994-11-24 - thanks to both blokes! The font was finally uploaded to patorjk.com, as linked below - again, thank you! : http://www.patorjk.com/software/taag/#p=display&f=Double : PIZZA SQUEEZE : https://squeeze.pizza Thank to to Pizza for links for this issue. : EMILY : https://chameleon.neocities.org/ Thank to to emily for a link for this issue. : KYLE DRAKE : https://kyledrake.com Thank you to Kyle Drake of kyledrake.com who was the head leader behind Neocities, a webhost where AcidJaw and NeoZones was first hosted. ------------------------------------------------- >UNTIL NEXT TIME AcidMail would not be possible if it won't for the cocky people over at NeoZones, one of the worst s0-called "webhome".
