googlewhack

My first successful googlewhack:

omphaloskepsis transistors
for a score of 721 * 368,000 = 265,328,000

Update: make that ‘almost successful’ … apparently transistor is in the dictionary, but transistors isn’t .. :-P

Here’s one that works: omphaloskepsis lode
score = 721 * 229,000 = 165,109,000

uncorked

(note: the back button is a dangerous thing — I had this whole post typed up and stupidly hit the back button and *POOF* it’s gone. This is the abridged version.)

Rented a movie last night: uncorked, starring Minnie Driver and Rufus Sewell (who was in Dark City, which I liked).

Good movie .. a crazy uncle, a manganese mine, a large (expensive) pillar, other crazy people, problems, solutions, philosophy, wine, love, hate, money, comedy, funky camera shots! (but wait there’s more!)

My favorite line from the movie:
"... his karma was constipated .. I gave him an enema."
