The two deliver well enough on fairly standard subjects where the main goal is basic info, but the more esoteric the search, the less satisfying their results. Did you ever find the answer online?

Agree about the very messy chocolate dessert on all levels.

My secret desire all along. A text “like” from someone who also eschews rules. Much appreciated.

I really do get how nice it is to get a Like, Maurice. Especially from a non-bot. And since I know it makes people happy, I will still now and then leave them scattered like bread crumbs as I wander around the blogosphere. If only the thing weren’t so darn formalized, maybe I’d Like it more. :)

1–great, if what I wanted was relatively straightforward such as definitions, information on things that are generally ‘known’, say info on a particular drug, medical condition or socio-geographic ‘fact’.
2–adequate to so-so if what I wanted was a bit out of the way. For example, a while back I wanted to find out the origins of the term “Western Boat” which is the name given to the two-masted fishing boats used in the past in NL. Because the info is a bit hard to find in ‘the real world’ it’s also hard to find online.

The owner’d be better off giving a double-shot espresso…or some very messy chocolate dessert.
Hmmm…did someone say chocolate??

No–I don’t post for any commercial or job related reasons. I–think–I do it for fun, for the pleasure of self-expression. That said it’s still nice to know that somewhere in the world, through my words I’ve made contact with someone.
I also don’t like following rules :>)
—LIKE—
See you got a ‘like’ anyway!

Ahem. As always, appreciate your support and encouragement. And for anyone who loves food and good stories (as I do), check out Terry’s wonderful Blue Kitchen!
