First of all, how about a little exercise? Go to Google. Type in “believe act achieve” without Joe’s famous quotes. Hit “Google Search.” Better yet, choose “I’m feeling lucky!”–you know you’ve always wanted to. Done? Who rules, eh? Who rules?

I think that’s what they call creating your own niche. Thanks Joanne!

And, to borrow another idea from Joanne, here is a list of disturbing search terms that people use to find my blog. You’ll note that there are sixteen rather than just thirteen, so consider the extra three a bonus.

1. tv snow
   What lots of people will be seeing next year if they don’t upgrade their TVs or get a digital converter.
2. hot naked chicks | how to attract chicks | naked chicks | naked
   Grouped together because of the common concept. Do you think they’re actually looking for chicks, or are they still referring to women as “chicks?” More than a little disturbing either way, don’t you think?
3. vegetarian “drunken sailors”
   I really don’t know what to make of this one.
4. do you believe in things you can | what does believe to achieve
   Grouped together because the shared response here is, “Huh!?”
5. how to make .dcr
   This one worries me.
6. pi to a thousand places
   Bet they were disappointed.
7. ron paul
   I have just as much a chance of being elected President as he does.
8. britney spears underwear
   Pete and Ellias foresaw this one.
9. make easy money online
   You’ve come to the wrong place, buddy. Unless you’re here to show me…
10. naked blogs
    Another mind-boggler.
11. alien civilization | extraterrestrial
    I think they were looking for the Alien Next Door.
12. how to make ground round
    Apparently, I serve up naked chicks and meat recipes too. I did not know this.
13. list of things to give up
    Why am I on this list? Why?
14. sexy ideas
    What do you suppose they were looking for? And how far did they have to dig on Google to end up here? (#82 in Google, if you were actually interested.)
15. g
    Did someone actually dig through page after page on Google with “g” as their only search term?
16. silly putty toxicity
    I mentioned that “imitation Silly Putty” has some toxicity, and this is what I get.

I suppose, if I follow the reasoning of giving people what they’re looking for, I should go find some extremely attractive alien women, write pi to a thousand places on their naked bodies, and post the pictures. Not sure where to find the vegetarian drunken sailors. Craigslist?
