It's been over 10 years since I last was driving, but my favorites were always Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart", the Carpenters, and Cat Stevens (the result of Harold and Maude's early influence on me).
I, er, first encountered fowl mouth-to-mouth in PBS's fantastic Natural History of the Chicken*, in which an elderly New England woman re-enacts reviving her partially frozen chicken. The show is both hysterical and poignant, and I try to catch it every time it's on.
Now available on DVD!
I don't know if this qualifies as a fake website, but while this site's disclaimer says:
Hoosier Gazette articles are drawn from different sources and some are fictitious or satirical. The Hoosier Gazette uses invented names in some stories, except in cases where public figures are being satirized. Any other use of real names is accidental and coincidental. The reader should suspend belief for the sake of enjoyment.severaltimes in the last year their stories have been run by major news outlets in the belief the stories were legitimate, and much of the feedback they get is from people who are taking them seriously.
"Last Letters Home: Voices of American Troops from the Battlefields of Iraq premieres, appropriately, on Veterans Day 2004: Thursday, November 11 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. In an effort to reach as many Americans as possible with this tribute, HBO and participating cable affiliates will open its signal during the telecast, making the program available to almost all cable households, not just pay-cable subscribers."

I kinda think Ally Sheedy's character in CSI's seventh season episode "Leapin' Lizards" is her Breakfast Club character all grown up.
