Google Hell

Warning:
This Musing is not for the faint of heart.

I was reading one of my favorite columnists in the whole wide world yesterday.
Joe Posnanski is an award winning sports columnist for the Kansas City Star and he also writes an occasional Human Interest story for his “Cup of Joe” column.

Joe recently wrote on the wonders of Google, the search engine.
He was charming and witty as usual, and shared this with his audience:


However they work, Google’s Web searches are remarkable. Type in a phrase, any phrase, hit that “I’m Feeling Lucky” button and within .25 seconds, you will be sent spiraling through Al Gore’s Internet to the exact Web page you need. Type in “Hate Reality TV” and you will go to a message board of people who hate reality TV shows. If you type in “Can’t Set VCR,” voila, you are transported to a Cable Television Set Up Guide.

So I decided to give it a shot. I typed in my brand new Blog name, ChrissyCan Cant. I’m Feeling Lucky!

Holy Shit…I don’t ever want to be “that” lucky. There are NO words…


If you are void of children at the moment, are NOT at your place of employment, and are not easily offended…Google me.

Otherwise, suffice it to say, I may have to re-think my Blog name. Sorry Bear!
