The Cockamamy Caucuses

I'm certainly no spelling bee, but did get a chuckle out of our collective inability to spell the word caucuses. On Thursday, the day of the Iowa Caucuses, Google Trends picked up on two peculiar searches: the 46th most popular search that day was "iowa caucasus" and the 51st was simply "caucasus".

Turns out the Caucasus are a mountain range in Caucasia, between the Black and Caspian seas, along the border between the Russian Federation, Georgia, and Azerbaijan.

Perhaps some Obama supporters linger there as well?

I'm just sayin'...

If You See Something, Say Wha?

I'm no rocket scientist, but strikes me that if you're gonna go around and take credit for your successes, that your successes should be just that...successful. 1,944 people who saw something and said something (a rather questionable initiative to begin with IMHO), seems rather miniscule-ish when you consider that over 2 billion (yes, that's billion with a b) utilized NYC transit during the same time period. That puts the success of this PR campaign at .00000097%. Hooray!

Again, nothing fancy, but on the "wamu sucks" front, my puny lil' blog is moving up Google's charts. As of tonight, it finds itself in position #1 of page 3 ...

And just think, I've done nothing to actually publicize my angst just yet...
