Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

a friend just sent this to me:

Go to google.com
http://www.google.com/

type in failure
and see what comes up...

make my day sister

That's a riot!

And that's his official site, too!

Dor I feel like Henry Gibson? on the old laugh in show

Verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry interestingggggggggggggggg

SO:
Do you think this is an example of payola. Do you think this is payola? I mean you can pay google to get that number one on the hit list spot. But would they really do that. Or is it because the word "failure" appears so many times in the website that he bots zeroed in on it. Or do you think that it is some fancy work with the html and the meta tags?

Or is it a coincidence? Or a dam good joke by somebody at google?
Or maybe the word ____ and Failure will forever be joined like Bogey and Bacall?

What ever it just picked me up, thanks deb you have no ideahow down I was this morning.

dam I guess i spoiled the joke let me see if I can edit this

Great questions!

Beats me!

I'm guessing it's somebody at Google who's got a good sense of humor who set it up to work that way for a time just to amuse us.

But I donno.









(I thought it was sorta funny that Macromedia named it's new software design suite Studio 8. We get some hits from people looking for the new software, for sure! ... but that's a different topic entirely,... I stopped by the Macromedia forums and posted something to thank them for naming their software after our website. LOL!)

Beats me too.

It cheered me up what, thats all that matters.

I been using dogpile.com. lately. Something about google this past week, seems like their hits were not as relevant as they used to be.

I remember the Macromedia thing. They just got bought by Adobe I think. I remember the first time I started getting hits for Studio * on google. It I think it scared me a little too. But you say it is a good thing, so I don't worry about it, but I keep thinking about the incident with google and that virus thing that Stupid Bob was saying. Like if you used google to search for studio eight the virsus or worm found away in. But I think we have had this discussion before and you said the problem was fixed by google.

Good day, the weather finally broke, northern come swooping down on us last night. Sunny windy day, wish I had a kite. Remember that old song from the hit parade (no I don't think you would, before your time)

The Wayward Wind

In the lonely shack by the railroad track
I spent my younger days
And I guess the sound of the outward bound
Made me a slave to my wanderin' ways.

And the wayward wind is a restless wind
A restless wind that yearns to wander
And I was born the next of kin
The next of kin to the wayward wind.

used to give me goose bumps when i was young jackster
thanks again WD

Someone just gave me this link.

I guess this has been going on for some time!

Blustery, overcast day here, jack, but warm... real warm for this time of year. Unusual. It's like 65 outside. Just rained... wish I raked my leaves... they're all wet now all over my backyard... so much for grass next year.

Deb - that's the funniest thing I've seen all day! Un-friggin'-believable (or not?). I had to pass that on to some friends.

Thx for sharing!

Thxs mymind; it got me rolling this morning ~ I just had to share.

Doreen: great link! And it explains things.

Did you notice that second on the list was Michael Moore? ~lol~ Seems some Bush supports might have 'struck back' ... but copy cat'ter's always lose something with their actions, they're never as funny (or good) as the orginals.

Third on that list was Failure Magazine - I'd never heard of them, so I checked them out; their editor wrote this:

EDITOR'S COLUMN

We have a front-runner for Failure of the Year (FOTY): President George W Bush & friends. The Bush Administration "won" our annual FOTY award two years ago, and it seems destined to become the first two-time winner in Failure's six-year history.

On the plus side, the Bush administration is doing wonders for Failure magazine. Traffic and ad revenue have been surging now that Bush has countless Americans concerned about failure. Whether it's the Iraq War, the response to Hurricane Katrina, the CIA leak probe, Harriet Miers' Supreme Court nomination, the skyrocketing national debt or gasoline prices—to name just a few—people are increasingly equating the Bush administration with failure. As a result, there has been a massive surge in failure-related Web searches in the past two months. Naturally, many of the results point to failuremag.com (although we concede that George W.'s bio still holds steady at #1 in a Google search for "failure").

On the down side, the American people still have to live with this Administration until 2008, and a lot of (bad) things can happen in what seems destined to be three long years. At this point in time, it seems all but the most blindly devoted right-wingers understand the importance of electing representatives that will take this country in a different direction.

The bottom line is that Bush and his cronies have proven over and over that they can't govern, and I'm afraid that if this great country doesn't go in a different direction we may not be great all that much longer.

Thanks Deb, I needed that!

The other day at work a woman I work with, Dori, asked me, "When are ya gonna convert to the Republicans?" I said, "I',d rather go to hell first." I really like her, though, she walked my disturbed lady to the taxi last week, she is just totally brainwashed and convinced that we are fighting in Iraq as part of the war on terror, and she believes that people on welfare are ripoffs, and that "there's only so much (money) to go around."

Not, her kid, a bright fellow of eighteen, is going to a private college, was at the RNC in '04.

And there are others there are "conservative" traditional.
You just can't yank their chain. They are dense, man.

At this point in time, it seems all but the most blindly devoted right-wingers understand the importance of electing representatives that will take this country in a different direction.

I am not so sure.
