Oxford is in England Right?

Remember this…

Mr. Gershe: Oxford is in England!

Norton: Is It?

Mr. Gershe: You mean you attended Oxford (2 hits) University and you don’t know where it’s located.

Norton: Well to tell you the truth, it was so foggy over there, I couldn’t’ tell where it was.

I thought about that classic Honeymooner’s exchange earlier today when I stumbled on this site about Oxford UK (2 hits). Britain’s Heritage Cities is a pretty cool site, besides information about Oxford city (2 hits), the site also includes information about cities like Bath, York and Stratfort.

The site is designed for anyone who wants to travel to Jolly Old England – it includes lists of things to do, tours, restaurants, maps and more. Have a look, oh and tell ‘em Norton sent you! ;)

Here’s a cool website I just found out about, OpticsPlanet.com. OpticsPlanet sells pretty much everything related to optics. You can find sunglasses, telescopes, microscopes even cool spy stuff like night vision (2 hits) goggles.

The site also features a very active message board. The board is organized by product category. Interested in talking with other people about binoculars? Visit the binocular forum, ditto for radar guns or sunglasses. The board if free and you don’t even have to be a customer to use it. I like sites like this because you can get more information about a specific product before you make your purchase.

Optics Planet offers thousands of optical products from toys to police quality radar guns, oh and, shipping via UPS is free.

The Roads of Long Island

Here’s another unique (No click) website! “The Roads of Long Island” is all about the islands (No click). It includes photos, exit lists maps and lots more. Take a look at the (No click) for example (Click on Roads then Interstate Routes select Long Island Expressway) and youll find out a write-up about the expressway, where it starts and ends, the direction etc… Click on Photos and see pictures of virtually every exit ramp off the expressway.The site also lists bridges and includes maps of the island. Lots of good information here for anyway interested in traveling the Islands roads. Theres definitely lots of information here my only complaint is that Id like to see the site presented via a database, with a search feature. Its a bit cumbersome having to drill through the static web pages looking for the information you need.

Have a look at the site here: The Roads of Long Island (2 hits)
