Bread crumbs

Just installed a hit metre on the blog here, allowing me to keep track of how many folks are coming by on any given day and one of the things I can do is track how people found the site.

For instance, when I so innocently decreed that Mike Holmgren "reacted like a schoolchild who lost the tetherball championship when his opponent grabbed a piece of the rope," over his childish pouting after the Super Bowl, I managed to move The Point After to No.2 on the Google search for "tetherball championships." Brilliant.

So watch me now as I make an attempt to again generate some random traffic through the good people at Google in a little segment I like to call:

Finding Me on Google

• Hey did you hear about that war in Iraq? Right now President Bush's approval rating is about as low as an introvert Christian girl on an episode of Elimidate.. Possible Google searches:Iraq Elimidate; President Bush Elimidate; introvert Christian Elimidate.

• I drank three bottles of Nestea today. There is a beach volleyball tournament in The Hague that is sponsored by Nestea. I doubt that Slobodan Milosevic watches beach volleyball. Possible Google searches:Beach volleyball Slobodan Milosevic; Nestea Slobodan Milosevic.

• The Acadamey Awards are today and I can safely say I can't name you one woman in line for best female lead. I will, however, wager that it's not Laura Prepon for Karla or Elvira Kurtz for anything. Ever.Possible Google searches:Elvira Kurtz not funny; Elvira Kurtz laughably God-awful; Elvira Kurtz the worst thing to happen to Canadian comedy since Check it Out.

And if anyone happens to Google "Don Adams Check it Out" well then I'll score myself another one.

In the meantime, good night everyone and enjoy the tetherball championships!
