Proving that there's a website for everything, I found this one: http://www.ilovenachocheese.com/, whose tagline is "for everyone who loves nacho cheese." The person running this site clearly has too much time on his hands (and likely a few extra pounds on his frame from eating nacho cheese!).
Nachos are very easy to make but here's a recipe in case you don't know how: http://elise.com/recipes/archives/001636nachos.php
I also enjoyed the film "Nacho Libre" starring Jack Black as an orphanage caretaker by day/Mexican wrestler by night. It was absolutely ridiculous but also extremely funny.
