I'm trying to organize these links and make this page useful, but I need your help. Send me more links and I'll put them up.

Vendors

The College does not endorse any particular vendors. This section is really here because people asked me for links to certain sites and I said I would post them. Please email me if there are other vendors you'd like to see listed here.

ExtremeSpin Yo-yos, juggling supplies, tops, diabolos, etc., based in Chicago
Western Stage Props Mark Allen's company, featuring ropes, whips, blank-firing guns, knives, tomahawks, boomerangs, and other western arts props and items
Rhett Kelley's Whips A nylon whip maker, featuring fairly good prices for custom made whips

Total Randomness

Links that just don't fit anywhere else, but which for some reason I feel compelled to publish.

Text-Based Pong This is just too wrong to go unposted.
