Attention Hungry - The Google Report
I sometimes check my sitemeter to see what words are being searched to arrive at GM's Corner & Woody Too! The results are often hilarious, I've found "sore armpits," "discovery channel greatest american george bush conspiracy," several mentions of "John Kerry's Grades (hat tip to woody)," "speeches about honesty," even "Ambercrombie and Fitch Catalogue Pictures."
Imagine my surprise, though a pleasant one, when "Attention Hungry" popped up refering to this post. I clicked on the google link and lo and behold:
over 3million searches for Attention Hungry and GM's Corner & Woody Too! are NUMBER ONE, NUMERO UNO!
Send your accolades, huzzah's and congratulations (or even 10 dollar bills) for this major achievement to: Gmroper@.... nah, I won't go there... I can just imagine the junk mail for extenders (what ever that is) and offers of riches from Nigeria coming in. Oh, and for you jaded detractors.... no, it wasn't google bombed. If I were going to do that, I would have picked a better entry. ;-)

Google is a notoriously left-wing company and they line up all their citations in a way to make rightwingers look bad?

Sometimes search engines are not only left-wing, but they make mistakes. For instance, in checking referring search words, I found that "GM's Corner with Woody, too" turned up as a search result for someone who entered "black men with a woody." Well, that's a mistake. G.M. is white. (True)

Google, as a leftwing company committed to the destruction of capitalism paid me to do it!
