Version 7.03 of The Oo Kingdom features the addition of A Heavenly Ummamum as a satellite site. The site was formerly located at webpages.charter.net/ummamum. Changes in the new version are noted under Version 7.03 on our Oo Kingdom Versions page.

The Coffin is our latest addition to Just For Laughs.

The Oo Kingdom is now home to a total of 603 Web pages; of those, 301 reside in Ummamum’s Picture Place.

No Umms

Normally, I don’t make political statements on this site, but today is a notable exception:

North Korea has announced its withdrawal from the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, resulting in a series of condemning statements from various nations around the globe. But the real kicker is this: they have already said they have no intention of making nuclear weapons. Who are they trying to kid? They already have a couple of them and could make a half dozen more in the next few months.

I could do something as ridiculous myself: simply deny any involvement with the Ummamum.

Today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day. For the first time this year, students in our city are getting the day off from school.

The Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon got a major face lift at 1:04 a.m. Central Time. It now sports a left-side navigation bar, complete with all of the drawings in alphabetical order. And it also has complete metadata! (NOTE, November 6, 2007: this was part of Joe’s anime site which is no longer online)
