'I have been catching up on old episodes of the Sopranos on HBO On Demand. (Contact your local starving Comcast salesman.) I was a bit confused last night about chronology, because Furio came over and Big Pussy Bompensiero was still a Boss. Mox nix, I decided to look things up on Wikipedia to clarify matters. So, rather than have to struggle through various wrong spellings of Bompensiero, I just Googled "Big Pussy". Like I said, I should have known better.  |

OK John that's on a par with the police officer who was researching motorcycles. He felt that Honda would give too many hits so he Googled blackbird. Not a good idea in an open plan office. |

I don't get it…when I googled blackbird I get either: the SR-71, the Beatles song, or an actual bird (Red-winged blackbird). |

Try Googling Panty Explosion and you get… well, links to webpages about the game. |

John, to you have the link to the site you went to? I was doing searches once for Benedict Arnold. Well, just be careful what you type in while in a hurry. Seems I hit keys along the line of "bend over…..", not Benedict. It was not a good scene. |

While trying to type hotmail instead I typed hotmale. That was when I first discovered the need for brain bleach. |

UK google probably works on a different pattern and he may have typed "black bird". I ain't testing it as it took him ages to close the pop-ups.
Bird is a fairly old fashioned colloquialism for woman over here. |

If researching road building you may need to find another way to google the foundations, rather than type 'hard core slag', which is what it is made of… |

Back when Google first came out, my boss was interested in manufacturing some of those ergonomic wrist rests for mouse pad users. I was asked to go on line and look up silicone and spandex manufacturers…
Back then, I didn't know any better, which is why I should have last night. |

While searching for "freikorps" a long time ago (probably using Dogpile on Netscape) I came up with German porn sites ("free bodies") until I began adding more descriptors like "friedrich der grosse". |

Just make sure you go and clear any "cookie" that may have been planted on your system or you may start getting a lot of spam. |

Don't forget,there was a "Little Pussy" Malanga,too. You might get arrested for that one… |

Wiki spells his name as Bonpensiero.I've recently worked my way through the entire series,up to season 6, from the library.Quite a different show from what is seen on A&E. |
