Site News #5

It's time for another round of bizarre search queries from the past week.  Please note that all the spellings represented below are exactly as they were entered by the searcher.  Here are some of my favorites that led to this site:

- michael jackson were is he burial at

- mcnair + "persian rug"

- riding on moose

- riding moose

- tijuana border metal detector

- ratalin tijuana

- why was micheal jacksonburied in cement

- robin shirtless photo batcave

In a bizarre case of life imitating blog, my post about Michael Jackson being buried in cement may actually be becoming a reality.  There are reports of cement trucks arriving at Neverland Ranch, which is fueling speculation that his body may be interred there Abraham Lincoln-style.  I'm just glad that someone is finally taking my advice.

The "mcnair + 'persian rug'" is another weird one.  It leads to this post, but it seems such a random search query.  I wrote the post before finding out that his mistress was found on a Persian rug, and my reference had nothing to do with that, obviously.  It is a bizarre coincidence.  I have also seen a couple of people post the phrase as a disparaging racial comment, and this came as a surprise, too, as I knew nothing about her ethnic background when the post was written.  This is yet another bizarre coincidence.

In addition, it was another big week for "transexuals in tijuana," although this time around they were also joined by "ratalin tijuana."  I'm assuming this search came from someone looking to purchase "Ritalin," which they would need in order to proofread their own spelling.

My favorite of the week has to be "robin shirtless photo batcave," which of course leads to this post.  I love the specificity of this one.  It has to be Robin, and he has to be shirtless--but that's not enough.  This person also needed it to be in the Batcave.  That adds just enough kink to push this one over the top.  Add to that they were looking for a "photo" because apparently they think Batman and Robin are real people who can be photographed.  This is a lonely, lonely person.

I will be doing some more work on the site soon, and posts will be more regular in the coming week.  I am out of preview week for my show, and I will have a little more time.  Also, you will notice that I have added Project Wonderful ads to this site.  Be sure to check out some of the interesting, independent sites these ads promote.  They are mostly smaller sites such as this one, and they are much more targeted (in general) than the typical colon cleansers and quilting materials advertised by Google AdSense and AdBrite.

And finally, apparently the popularity of moose riding is on the rise.  Tally ho.
