Ego Surfing or Just Finding Myself?

When I myself am territorially ego surfing, besides this financial system consultant and questionable online P.I. series, I also land on outdoor furniture and Norm Gabrowski's apparently legendary, macked-out C-Cab "Henway" truck. At last, I am rocked.


I'll freely admit to getting this idea from the occasional search string postings (which I couldn't find today) by Samantha Burns. Maybe next, I'll copy her by infiltrating the nation to my south for overthrow, too.

Anyhoo, one of the joys of a mixed bag of blog is creating so many paths to my door. Below are recent searches from the last 100 entities who found Sense of Soot. Asterisks represent multiple searches on the same topic, and I'll also highlight the perennial favorites in purple. If you want to see the posts, plug the text string into your favorite engine and browse on, ya'll.

But the no-contest, biggest search generator of hits here every week -hits which I'd be happy to forfeit, since I know the searchers must inevitably be disappointed- is the name of the blonde teen who went missing from a Dutch-governed island. I misspelled it in a post, not as Gnat-a-Lea Haul-A-Way, but making a far more predictable error. The tide rolled in. And rolled. And trickles even today.
