FRIDAY ROUNDUP

Wonkette shows us the fun one can have with Google Local. Pick a city (in this case, "Washington") and then pick something to search for (in this case, "assholes") and Google will return a map of the top Washington assholes (in this case, "Bob Novak"). Gideon notes in her April 19 post that my blog is, perhaps, not the best ice-breaker at funerals. Meanwhile, watching television at 3:00 in the morning, you see a lot of ads for "dating" services. (I don't know what they are trying to suggest...) Last night I saw an ad for Livelinks and all of a sudden realized, "Hey! That's TV's Evangeline Lilly from the ABC hit drama Lost! She's not looking to connect with fun and exciting singles! She's an actress! She's just acting!" Oh, Livelinks, how could you lie to us like that? You're not Livelinks! You're Lielinks! (Get it? Lielinks. Because they lie. And it rhymes.)
