A MILBLOG
mudminilogo1.jpg
The Mudville Gazette is the on-line voice of an American warrior and his wife who stands by him. They prefer to see peaceful change render force of arms unnecessary. Until that day they stand fast with those who struggle for freedom, strike for reason, and pray for a better tomorrow.

Top Googles

Greyhawk

More lists for the New Year...

The shameful secret of most bloggers - it's hard to top Google for referrers! And the shameful secret part 2 is the (usually) weird things they come looking for...

Before I get to that I'll note with relief that Rick Rescorla is the most common search here. We're the top Google for that name. (A name held in very high esteem in these parts!)

And Greyhawk and Mudville Gazette account for a good number too. So lots of folks seem to come here on purpose.

But shortly after those come the inexplicable.

Why, for instance, does my fictional series on a former president's investigation into a terrorist organization draw so many hits?

And I swear I had no idea that this entry would put me at the top of the Google pile for "Hussein family pictures".

Score:
Hussein family: #20
Hussein Family Pictures #9
Sexy Hussein family pictures: #1

There are other variations on this theme.

How about this? Mudville is #1 for Bush is a big fat liar and #2 for Bush is a big fat idiot. Here's why.

And Mudville scores way too high on searches for news on this guy. And for whatever reason, folks still leave comments.

And the stuff Ooglay Hussein writes about (his tortured family history being what it is) really brings 'em home.

I wonder if Ooglay will return in the New Year?
