The only thing unusual about those entries are the referer.  The
request is a perfectly normal GET of your home page.  That leads me to
believe that these are simply referer-spam, trying to pollute your
logs (perhaps posted online) and hence get links that will be counted
by google.  If so, you just did them a huge favor by posting their
sites to this list, where your message will be picked up by a dozen or
so web archives and boost their google ranks.  Oh well.  Other than
that, I'd simply ignore them and make sure that you don't post
anything from your referer logs on your website.
