Alarming News: I like Morgan Freeberg. A lot.
American Digest: And I like this from "The Blog That Nobody Reads", because it is -- mostly -- about me. What can I say? I'm on an ego trip today. It won't last.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: We were following a trackback and thinking "hmmm... this is a bloody excellent post!", and then we realized that it was just part III of, well, three...Damn. I wish I'd written those.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: ...I just remembered that I found a new blog a short while ago, House of Eratosthenes, that I really like. I like his common sense approach and his curiosity when it comes to why people believe what they believe rather than just what they believe.
Brutally Honest: Morgan Freeberg is brilliant.
Dr. Melissa Clouthier: Morgan Freeberg at House of Eratosthenes (pftthats a mouthful) honors big boned women in skimpy clothing. The picture there is priceless--keep scrolling down.
Exile in Portales: Via Gerard: Morgan Freeberg, a guy with a lot to say. And he speaks The Truth...and it's fascinating stuff. Worth a read, or three. Or six.
Just Muttering: Two nice pieces at House of Eratosthenes, one about a perhaps unintended effect of the Enron mess, and one on the Gore-y environ-movie.
Mein Blogovault: Make "the Blog that No One Reads" one of your daily reads.
The Virginian: I know this post will offend some people, but the author makes some good points.
Poetic Justice: Cletus! Ah gots a laiv one fer yew...
Hmmm…
What’s causing it? Seems to have something to do with this picture…
A while back Blogsister Daphne was giving me a friendly jibe, in the form of a list of Hollywood damsels I should find pulchritudinous. And I gave it back to her by pointing out who she forgot. My reasons should be obvious.
I’m wondering what caused the spike, trying to think out the various scenarios. I’m thinking a little bit about web security vulnerabilities. Seems a Google bot discovered Ms. Wood from our archives and connected a category page to the image. Search terms that come out of this, include “Natalie Wood hot” and “Natalie Wood naked.” Yeah, good luck on that guys. International traffic, although a part of life and something to be expected, and by no means an inherently bad thing, makes me a little suspicious. All three of those qualifiers also apply to guys looking for pictures of naked women…as does the suspicion. And the suspicion factor multiplies when we’re dealing with guys from France looking for pictures of a naked Natalie.
I’m reassured to see a Google search for “Jessica Alba no clothes” hitting the same page. This suggests hot-button is the page, not the image, and the situation is no more complicated than the ‘bot making a find, and the indexing algorithm promoting it in the database because the find has been in high demand. We are supposed to be elevated in priority when search engines do their stuff; it’s part of the hosting service. Hasn’t netted us a result like this before now, but then again, to a “big” blog eighty hits an hour is nothing to write home about.
Update: Ah, hah. Hubbub from the radio sez: The investigation around her drowning death is being reopened. Didn’t know, we’ll have to look into that. That does help explain some things.
