  • Hello, Duke University

    I love it that this weekend’s Google brought me a researcher from Duke University inquiring “how much money does a person working at the White House make”? * * * * * Oops, I spy in my peripheral vision a little something hanging from the right hinge of my eyeglasses. Reach up and pluck it…

  • Yeah, sure, anything's possible (so it's said)

    I get more than my fair share of people landing here with searches for banana popsicle. Because I once wrote about banana popsicles. Above is my answer to the person who landed here via the search for are popsicles DANGEROUS?

  • AH, C'MON! (GOOGLE CASINO GIVES ME TOO MUCH INFO)

    I’m now the Number One Google Return for plastic cups alternative. I’m not heartless. I really feel for No Impact Man, he ought to have the honor. I mean that! I do! We all know that No Impact Man and I have our differences but as far as environmental info (and links to) goes, my…

  • This would be Funny if it wasn't so Frustrating

    This is a screen grab of my search query report for not just my blog but my entire web site. Which is the usual. Back early in 2004, I did one blog post in which I mentioned monster trucks in which I linked to a couple other websites that were monster truck websites. The post…

  • Sigh, I Remember When Google Was a Baby

    It’s said that Google now wants to run my life.

  • Friendly advice for a future Googler

    Do NOT, when recovering from a head cold, get the hiccups, take a mouthful of carbonated water flavored with lime, stand on your head and instead of swallowing said water (which will realign the diaphragm and is the only way I can get rid of hiccups) accidentally let almost the whole mouthful of water flow…

  • To the person who got here Googling "glued Legos versus unglued Legos"

    Dear Person Who Got Here Googling Glued Legos Versus Unglued Legos: Yes, definitely. Take your several big containers of assorted Legos. Liberally pour glue over them all. Let me know how it goes. * * * * Dear Person Who Got Here Googling Reimagining yourself: It’s generally preferred to letting someone else reimagine yourself for…

  • Ah, gee, Google, stop with the love, you're embarrassing me

    How sweet. Looking at searches that bring people here, I find that my blog comes up #1 in Google for the search… oven smells like mouse urine …because of my recent kitchen post which mentioned nothing about mouse urine but someone else’s one time problem with it was discussed in the comment area. This post…
