    The 'comedian' Dave Gorman has been going on about his recent 'Googlewhack adventure', in which he not only found several Googlewhacks, but travelled out to meet the website owners.

    I have found a few in my time. There are all sorts of rules governing Googlewhacking (mustn't use proper names, or made-up words, etc.); but most of the time I just use Google as intended - as a search engine.

    Still, a tentative 'well done' on having a Googlewhack, HStorm. It's a shame that the gentleman who emailed you didn't tell you that, Googlewhack or not, you have a site that is well worth visiting.

      FK  -  Bewildered, mate. Not scared, not honoured, just very, very bewildered.

      Drass  -  Thanks for the compliment, but it was actually on fanfic.net, not my site. And I'm pretty sure the entire story went completely over his head, if he bothered to read it at all  -  he seems to be from Canada, judging by the e-mail address.

        From Canada, that would explain a lot  ::)

          Hey hey, my Dad's Canadian!

          Canada isn't too bad though, even if English people co-exist with French speakers, which makes the place odd. Somehow if you tied the UK to France so Dover and Calais were connected, I'm not sure there would be peaceful harmony.

          Although it would be easier to get cheaper alcohol for us...

              Nobody's knocking Canada, FK, we're just saying not many people over there are going to know anything about Knightmare.

                It must be cool to live in Canada...

                  The latest craze, apparently.

                  Like yo-yos were in the late 1990s.

                  Or furbies.

                  Or the Segway transporter.

                  Or tamagotchis...

                      Sounds a bit like here in Aber - English people co-existing with Welsh-only speakers. THAT's odd, specially when they refuse to speak to you if you're English lol...

                      YAY tamagotchi's! Where did I leave mine...?

                        Just be grateful you weren't an English schoolkid living in Glasgow at the height of the Poll Tax riots of '89. Guess who all the other schoolkids took it out on. Go on, have a guess.

                            Spotty little Storm, that's right. Give that aristocrat a chocolate bar!

                              Gordon Bennett...and this is supposed to be the 21st century and we still deep down hate each other.

                              Well, except us obviously on this board. We're just filled with love...

                              Or mutual friendship, if you found the last statement nauseating.

                              And my Tamagotchi's batteries ran out. Never to return...although I did once have a computer pet that could dance to The Prodigy's Firestarter. No, really.

                                My tamagotchi never survived past 3 days even when I was around to feed it. I reckon they gave me a diseased one.

                                  Did you used to take care of it properly? Did you used to play with it as well as feed it? I used to hate it when I knew mine was going to die of old age. So when the batteries died the last time I didn't replace them. Istill have it stored away in a drawer somewhere. I think that they should create a new Tamagotchi, which would be a goblin one. We would have to take care it this goblin, which would be a very good thing for people like Skarkill .

                                        Apparently a new fish appears on the screen... I wonder what they did with the old fish?
