Broken Link Buzzing
While not technically a 404 page as per the label, this TVBuzer page was still cute...even if the results are basically the same.
"Busy as a bee" works when it's trying to fix a broken link, too.

Thanksgiving Personality
A little scary, this one (because it's spot-on):
|
Your Thanksgiving Personality is Rebel |
 You detest Thanksgiving. All that family drama mixed with unappetizing side dishes? No thank you! You'll make an appearance if you absolutely have to, but you won't enjoy it. You probably don't even like pumpkin pie. Your ideal Thanksgiving would be spent completely alone... or with the few people that you can tolerate. You'd eat whatever you want - even in front of the TV if you felt like it. And there's a good chance you wouldn't be eating sweet potatoes with marshmallow. Gag! |

Dealey Plaza Webcam
A "bump" of this post from over a yr. ago to note the anniversary of the JFK assassination.
Another webcam I frequently visit is the Dealey Plaza Webcam in the southeast corner window of the sixth floor in the former Texas School Book Depository in Dallas. This is the view from the window from which an assassin fired the shots that killed President John F. Kennedy and severely wounded Texas Governor John Connally as the presidential motorcade drove through Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963.
Here is the Google Earth street view looking back towards the sixth floor. The white "X" on the road marks the spot (the black arrow points to it) where Kennedy was shot. The black arrow at the top right of the building points toward the storage room where Oswald was perched and fired the shots. It is now the Sixth Floor Museum.
Another street view of the grassy knoll where many think some or all of the shots were fired.
A photo taken that day:
During the day there are almost always tourists and sightseers and I find myself holding my breath while watching someone running out to have their photo taken on the "X". (the person in the graphic below is hard to see because I had to enlarge it, but they're right in the center of the screen shot.) This was at around six p.m. and even though the rush hour traffic has lessened, the road was still busy and they quickly had to scamper back as so to not get run over by cars speeding around the corner.
