Just use plain old TELNET and type

        telnet www.the_host_to_test.kind 80
    ---connection starts---
        GET /dir/page.asp?var=value HTTP/1.0
        Host: www.the_host_to_test.kind

        
    ---connection ends---

Make sure you enter a double new-line after the Host: header line.
Depending of your backscroll buffer you might want to capture the
outpout into a file. On Unix you simply can use

        telnet www.the_host_to_test.kind 80 | tee OUTPUTFILE

If you want to do scripting I'd recommend using NETCAT instead of
TELNET. For additional examples and other protocols you could look into
the Checks/ directory of the MoSSHe monitoring system
(http://www.wyae.de/software/mosshe/).
