The mind boggles. Or should I say googles?
Sometimes I'm really shocked at how lazy we are here in this country. Then I notice I say 'we' because I spend half my day sleeping! LOL
So, I previewed this new Yahoo thing via the link above (LOVE those things, BTW). Must say it LOOKS more complicated than Google.
I also must say that Google has proven most reliable for me: I get more results, and more of those results are actually accurate.
Well. That's my take.

Oh good, I beat Bambi, HaHa! Yahoo's new search will be perfect for her and Frenchfry!

Hey, I'm an old Baby Boomer. We like computers to be easy and as mindless as possible. I'm waiting for computers to be completely voice activated and able to Interpret by voice inflection what I really MEANT to say; kind of like what men are supposed to do.

Tango: You could always just hire Majel Barrett to follow you around everywhere with a notebook.

You can rearrange the letters in Google and make ooggle, which sounds almost like Ooglay. Hmmmmmm

greap: You're so right! THAT would work better than Google!
Pooke: That's scary.
Tango: Hate to say it like a GenXer, but aren't ALL Baby Boomers OLD, now?! Tho I agree with your concept of true technology.

The only way that Yahoo could make it better is that once the button is pushed, a shower of Lysol brand disinfectant is sprayed over France and Bambi (who is a Man) has some sense slapped into him.

From the viewpoint of GenXers, I suppose all Baby Boomers ARE old. That's okay. All of my kids are GenXers, so I gotta love ya. I love all those GenXers fighting over in Iraq too. God bless and keep them. My heart aches for the ones we've lost.

The bodies of the infidel web searchers are piled at the gates of San Francisco.

In Iraq, Ooglay.com is only web access! Now it is not working so good. Maybe your evil tank 500 kilometers from Bahghdad knocked over the lines. Having no web will kill 6,000 more Iraqi babies and mothers, you infidel swine! Ooglay still has web page though. Maybe I put you swine there! Click and be seeing!

Poor Poor Gorn!
So forlorn
Always Torn
Wishing he never born
Subject of scorn
His clothes are worn
Spends too much time with porn
Blowin’ his horn
Eatin’ his corn
He we should mourn
Poor Poor Gorn!

Google search, what is that? I usually have to search for my shoes and sometiimes my jacket.

Bambi- Are you there?

Yes indeed simpler is better and as far as users go, dumb and dumber seems to be the norm; I like them alot. Aproaching the half-century mark has put me in a position to look back and see that the sheep have no shepard. They blindly follow more like lemmings, the technology that gives them mindless online parlor games and advertizing portals masquerading as search engines such as Yahoo. Even though Google, as good as it is, becomes more popular, it is not "best at some", but rather "good at most" searches. Good enough for the non technical masses of bandwidth hogs, copyright violators, and endless undulating waves of online browsers milling about like so many obvlious bovines looking for the cud they dropped 3 hours ago. So yes; Google sucks less. Have at it Gen-whatevers, go for the interface and leave the backend for those of us who remain clear of mind. While the internet you see on your screen seeks the level of interaction required by Bambi the girl/Man the rest of us will be in the background, connected here and there, off and on as necessary checking up on all of you to make sure you remain oblivous as to how this all works.
PS. yeah, we used to read all your email, but it's just become too much of a mental drain to wade through all that pathetic drivel.

I heard that GWB gave his solemn word that, whatever he decides, he will use his skills for the betterment of the world.

Thank God, now I can sleep at night."

Sure an' begorra, it's good to see ya finally gettin' the religion there, Frenchy boy! We should all thank the Lord when we can be sleepin at night! I'm with ya there!

Such a creative boy, MOAB!
Go tell your mother you deserve a cookie for being so special.

Hey Look! Frenchie decided to make a political post in a thread about search engines!

A couple of years ago, the head of the now "sold to the pay-per-click" Alta Vista search engine, complained that viewers "just want to click on links and not have to type anything".

I still say there's a big market for voice-activated computers.

Remember, Boycott france and any french products.

Besides...
It's a lot of fun to "have a fit" about french products on display in the middle of a Walmart or Target store. Helps get the word out and it's so much more fun than a demonstration, you know?

Okie Dokie, GREAT Idea about having a fit in Walmart or Target. Expanding the idea, find a French product, then AFTER, they ring it up yell, "I didn't know this was made in France, I don't want that frog cr@p!"

Ah_Ha: And yet, you're here. Go figure.

"I heard that GWB gave his solemn word that, whatever he decides, he will use his skills for the betterment of the world."

In the rough draft of the speech, "betterment of the world" was replaced by "slaughter of fluffy kittens."

GOoglay Hussein,

"GOoglay" - could I be onto something here? If only Hans Blix had used GOoglay as his search engine. He might have found the WMD's.

Go Brits - we are as tired of these pompous liberals as you are!

Sorry I'm so late posting.

I was looking for a magazine article in my latest monthly update to the Reader's Guide to Periodicals. But I couldn't find it My library didn't carry the periodical. However, I can't wait till next month because I will get the 2002 Annual edition of the R.G.P. Then I will really be able to get some research done, if, of course, my local library carries the periodicals I need.

I forgot, what was it you were talking about? Oh yea, that Yahoo or Google are annoying? Hmmm, I will have to think about that one. I wonder if the March 2003 R.G.P. has any articles about it? I will let all you Scrapplers know.

THIS WAR WAS JUST

Very creative post, Frenchman. Way to take two lines from The Onion and splice "GWB" into them. Hiiii-larious. And so insightful. You even left a quotation mark attatched to the end.

"Now, he just talks about himself," Perkins continued. "He wants to be a writer, but he might be an international human-rights lawyer. He gave me his solemn word that, whatever he decides, he will use his skills for the betterment of the world. Thank God, now I can sleep at night."

Dear Sanguinius,

If you still read "The Onion" instead of "The Weekly Standard", there is hope for you !

Gorny boy-

I think it would be easier if you told YOUR mother, because no doubt you both live in the same house.

Don't worry, buddy. In a few short months your body will undergo some changes, you'll start to like girls, and then you won't be so interested in Star Trek or Dungeons & Dragons. You'll re-prioritize. It happens to everyone who reaches puberty.

Then, soon after that, you'll be able to get your driver's license, and you'll be able to take girls out on dates! Won't that be fun?

MOAB,

If I had known you were going to turn out this way, I never would have taken your mother to the prom.

Gorny-boy

Hey! Mom jokes! Congratulations, you're much younger than I thought you were.

A word of advice: Don't ever use your actual email address when posting things on the net.

Oh, and have fun sorting through all the gay spam mail you'll be receiving shortly....

If you were intelligent enough to actually understand what you read, you would realize that I was calling you a b*****d.

As for having my real e-mail address...well, unlike you, I have nothing to hide.

As for your choice of spam, I expect you have had all those gay porn sites listed for quite a while.

MOAB, you're a coward.

I guess I got to this one late, but I have to say the Internet is totally too complicated for me. That's probably why I've never used it for anything.

Sticks and Stones, gorny!

I noticed that ever since I began teasing you, you decided to remove the ! from your name.
A sign of dejection?

Name calling and mom jokes still won't get you l*id, son.

Get him, MOAB!

This is the same useless punk who took issue with a few jokes I made on this post, and then said he was 'calling me out'

CALLING ME OUT!!! - Using an assumed name on an intranet site - talk about cowards.
What do you expect from a guy who names himself after a f'n lizard.

Well, lizard boy, if you're still interested in 'calling me out', theres a park in NYC called Washington Square. Your mom will have to drive you there.

MOAB, Ameri_can,

Take it easy on the poor kid. Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock are all that kids like him have in life.
All the teasing may make him do something drastic.
Poor kid. I can just see him crying behind his lizard mask.

Happy now?
What are you guys, the three stooges?

Iraqi-can: as the challenged party, you have the choice of weapons.

MOAB: you can act as Iraqi-can's second.

Syd: Keep out of it.

Syd, MOAB,

Can I be Moe? I think I could do a mean Moe on this guy....you know, pull some hair out, etc.

"Challenged Party"...HA...This guy kills me.
Won't need any weapons. Believe me.

(you live anywhere near NYC, gorn?)

Bambi, can't you do something about this syd, moab, amerikan, gorn thing?

Ameri_can,

You're right - this kid is a punk.

I want to be Curly.

Guys-

I read that 'Happy now?' line and laughed myself silly.

I'm Shemp

Hi ams
Guess what? I have a friend named Yaksun now who agrees with me about the bushy having war against the brown people. I think Bushy only is doing it because he doesn't like brown people unless they believe in his BushGod. We have to save the little brown people in this world. Also oil.

I don't know about the people you are talking about. I read all this above very slowly and I don't know what started it but sometimes I know jilted lovers treat each other that way. That may explain it. There is nothing you can do about it if that is why they are fighting because they are a love triangle. Especially if it is four-way. Refer them to a pro. My name is a helpful link.
Also in case they don't know it I am a man.

Bambi, thanks for trying.

As for Bush hating little brown people, I don't think that's true because I'm a "Bushy" AND a little brown person! Well, I'm more beige than brown but that still counts as brown, right? Then there's my children, some of them are little beige people but some are quite on the pale side. Then again, my grown son is in the Marines and he's not brown at all and I hope that's not some kind of conspiracy against little brown people.

Sincerely,
A Bohemian-german-polish-irish-spanish-russian-chippewa Indian-American

And Bambi,

Do you think I should make everyone refer to me as a bohemian-german-polish-irish-spanish-russian-chippewa indian American instead of just "white girl"? I really think you're the only one who can give me advice on this one.

ams
I think I'm really connecting with you. Even though I'm a pure Boston WASP without any of the cool ethnicities you have. I didn't even have brown friends growing up. You can have diversity celebrations with yourself! That would be fun but sad too I guess.

As far as what people should call you, it's a free country. So you make them call you anything you want. That is your right as a free American.

Also are you a weather foreaster? Is that a seal of approval?

Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk.

Accept only the real Curly. Curly Joe was a poor substitute.

I am hearing and seeing AH-64s, F-15s and F-16s,and spec-ops assault boats. Big air show and fire works tomorrow. The current military plane complement is somewhat depleted (good Lord keep 'em safe and flying), but there will be plenty of past and present Air Force and Army machines flying through and giving us a reminder of the men and women currently in the middle east and elsewhere.

The helecopters and assault boats were practicing an insertion and extraction under fire. The choppers and the boats firing blank machine gun and cannon shells made me smile and think, "Run, Saddam, run."

Bambi,

I'm so sorry you don't have any "cool ethnicities" and that you were deprived of brown friends. It must cause you to suffer so much inherited guilt. It's probably why you take the liberal view. Most liberals have never had any brown friends and that's what ruins their outlook on life. I'm fortunate to come from such mistreated stock. I am planning on suing for reparations for the MAN holding my people down.

And to answer your question, no I can't forcast the weather but my husband who is an Irish-German-Cherokee American can make it rain with a little raindance thingy. We never have to sprinkle our lawn so we are a big help for the environment.

Well Bambi, it's always fun to share with you but I have to get back to my brownest kid's birthday party. It's very diverse because he has friends whiter AND browner than him. It's a shame his gay aunts and cross-dressing uncle couldn't make it because it really would've been a rainbow thing

i laughed out loud.
