      Is it just me (it usually is) or have you not been around for a while? Don't recall speaking with you for some time. Hope all is well.

        I was half joking about it being a valid search. I copied and pasted ??? into google as a brain fart (bad encoding on a file I was parsing) then remembered google doesn't care for punctuation much. Then I decided to share with you guys because it's Friday afternoon.

              Seems like it might be. He's only 4, but they took a biopsy Wednesday. Fear it might be a tumor. We will know more soon. Been sick for 2 weeks, lost weight, fluid in the abdomen. His levels of everything as tested by his blood seem alright, and he's still playful. I'm staying optimistic and enjoying the hell out of my time with him.

                  Throw a stick for him for me? Hope the biopsy is negative, even if that means they don't know what's wrong yet...:rose:

                              Never heard of googlewhack before, so I tried a couple. Got it on my second try: "existential tablecloth" - returned one result and one ad. There goes another 1.2 seconds of my allotted fame..

                                  Dang it ... I read "with quotation marks", but it says "without quotation marks". So "existential tablecloth" in quotes returns one hit. Sigh. Need more caffeine.

                                      BTW: there is also a book[^] and a DVD[^] by a guy called Dave Gorman about what happened when he heard about GoogleWhacks - I saw the show he did on TV which covered some of it. Very silly person, worth a read.
