Amusing Google Game

Here is a challenge for all of my fellow bloggers. Find as few search terms as possible that result in Google displaying your blog as the first choice. I discovered this little distraction while looking at the referrers that brought people to this blahg.

So far, my personal best is 2. Common phrases and proper names other than your own are fine. My favorites so far are:

Apparently Carson Daly had the audacity to ask Simon Cowell in a recent interview whether he wore boxers or briefs, so the last one now ranks below several others (like entertainment reporters). Perhaps Carson Daly's writers were researching whether the answer to that age old question was already common knowledge. Nice to know that for at least a week or so, I was the Internet's authoritative source on Simon Cowell's choice in undergarments.

That might be cheating Alec. :D The best I could come up with for yours is:

"chocolate egg", "lighter fluid"

I found mine using: "bone-headed flocculant" "biometric, hideous troll" and "nappy-changing Deadman" I was slightly disturbed to find that "phishing gargoyles" didn't even return me on the first page!
