We often say that The Fun Times Guide is the “Seinfeld” of the Internet…it’s a site about nothing… yet there’s something for everyone!
Well, I guess we’re doing something right because our traffic has never been higher, and if the feedback we receive is any indication, at least these people “get” it.
The Fun Times Guide is loaded with good news and fun stuff. Lots of little-known secrets about practical, everyday matters… always from a unique perspective… often with a humorous twist.
Here’s what people are saying about The Fun Times Guide…

I have now followed the websites for the BCC. OH WELL,…..ALSO, this weekend of August 5th we are taking a weekend in the smokies with your guide. We are gonna rent a jeep and explore the trails. I have gone to this area since 1972 and not even known about the off road stuff. Thank you for making it known. Also, I joined the Goodwill Auction, hehe, I now have a perfectly good leather coat. Thank you for all the entertainment I have recieved here. I just wish I could view the back issues easier. I have also bought Magic Erasers, and a Bissell Carpet cleaner.

I found your website through google.com, and noticed that Jim is a fan of the Frosty. My article is essentially about why people love the Frosty, do they see it as ice cream or a milk shake (or neither), etc. If you have any thoughts or interesting or funny stories about your experiences with the Frosty, please contact me.”
