This is funny, if I may say so myself.
| Quote: | | Google is fighting a subpoena from the Bush Administration to turn over its data on searches in order to defend the Internet Child Protection Act. Of course, I support whatever the Bush Administration thinks it needs to do to protect children from the Internet and think Google should surrender this data immediately. However, I was looking at the record of Google searches I have done and am worried that there might be some misunderstandings when these searches are seen out of context. So in case Google does lose its case, I would like to take this opportunity to explain some of the searches I did so that no one in the Justice Department gets the wrong idea. As you can see there are innocent explanations for all of them: |
The excuses!
| Quote: |
paris hilton video - I was planning a vacation and looking for a video travelogue about hotels in Paris.
nude teens - This was a typo. I was looking for "rude teens" to research a piece on the decline of manners in American young people, which is a very big problem.
growing marijuana - I was researching the problem of growing marijuana use in the U.S. I must have left off the word "use."
escorts - I was doing research on buying a Ford.
viagra - This was for a tribute I was writing on Bob Dole.
download free music - Of course I support copyright laws and was doing research on the criminals who break them.
google earth di-- cheney's house - I have always been curious about where our Vice President stays when he is not in hiding. That's all. It was nothing more than curiosity. I don't think this search was ultimately successful, anyway.
olsen twins - Who doesn't like the Olsen twins and their fine family movies?
loofah sponges - I don't remember why I was searching for this.
jon swift is a hunk-"Did not match any documents" Sigh.
g-- p--n - I honestly don't know how this got on my list of searches. I think someone was using my computer and I aim to find out who it was. |

The government (any government) would likely find my searches pretty dull.
That doesn't mean I'd like to make them available just because they're curious.

Hahaha.... 
I don't think my government is interested in finding out what I've been searching for.... they have their own problems and most of them is just like that man with the explanations.....
