This is a rather amusing collection of really really random stuff that either got forward to me by someone, or found in some random location on the web. If you're the author of these software and don't wish for this to be shared here, please let me know. I got these from public domains so I assume the binaries can stay in the public.
Be warned! You're running these at your own risk. I've scanned them and run them myself to make sure that it's safe and doesn't screw up your desktop in anyway. Some of these binaries are "16-bit" executables that runs on older computers like 80286 AT for example. Windows is written to sandbox these application so that they continue to run on modern day Windows operating system, but don't be surprised if you face problems with them.

The following are zipped applications that requires you to unzip them into some folder. If you're using Windows XP, you should be able to just click on "Extract all files" and choose a destination. If you can't perform this simple task, I suggest you go fly kites while the weather out there is still beautiful. It's definitely better than downlaoding and playing these.
