... examiner writes "oesophogus" doesn't make it the correct spelling.

> Only one I've come up with so far is lithium oesophogus *lol*
"Lithium oesophagus" gets 336 hits.
I'm just annoyed because my first try, "antidisestablishmentarianism persiflage", got two hits :(

This is really, really bad for me. I love x-words and scrabble--I haven't had a good game of scrabble for years and years because my husband won't play w/ me. I trounced him royally even before we were married, and it was too much for his fragile male ego.I never got into scrabble enough to memorize all the two-letter words in the world, but qa is useful. Al-queda is out, being a Proper Noun.
Hey, it's Friday! 2nd-best day for NYTimes x-word!
Got a zax, anyone?

You key in your whole name and one line quotes about others with your name pop up. Some are funny, some aren't. It ain't the best...

( Reminds me of that movie where Steve Martin shouts out joyously "I'm somebody! The new phonebooks are here!" because he was listed in it. )

My real name draws nothing, but "noa" brought a ton of statements. Some are about the Israeli-American musician, Noa (Achinoam Nini). Others seem to be names of organizations, etc. An who knows who the "least hostile spanker" Noa really is!!

BTW, the "googlebashing addict" was a pair that came up with only one site. But I also discovered that there is a way to cheat at this game. I promise, I haven't used it yet. But maybe you have noticed that sometimes, one of the sites that comes up is named something like, "wierdest things searched for on google". Therein lies the cheat sheet.
