What was your most recent Google (or other) Search?

Google+Search
Show me items with a last order date of April 22nd. Now show me their order cycle. Now show me the activate date. Aha so that's why the system placed those orders this week instead of three months from now.
my latest was way boring... bart simpson blackboard. (I was looking for the online app that lets you write your own text for his repeated "I will not..." whatever.)
So for more interesting fun, I went all the way down to the bottom of the alphabetized list of my google searches where they keep the ones you've used quotation marks with. The last five there were:
"The Lady with the Unicorn" flash
“Masaru Emoto" water gallery
“New Now Know How”
“puzzle pictures” Currier and Ives
“Probably the toughest time in anyone's life is when you have to murder a loved one because they're the devil.”
I should have taken the month off instead of sticking around to "take care of a few things." <grumble> my first month's paycheck after I get a MSc works out to be $10/hour pre-taxes - at least I'm wasting a lot of time here, though</grumble>
My plan, once I find one, is to cut the legs off of the cot, attach chains to the corners, and hang it from the porch rafters. This makes a great bed down at the beach, in the shade, with the sea breeze blowing, as the heat of the day makes napping or reading the best option.
The last one I made lasted 10 years, and is slowly rusting away. It is much harder to find Army Cot type frames than is used to be.
I was looking up shopping carts...because I desperately need to reroll my site. I guess I was hoping for a magic "here, see how easy this is, all the bells and whistles and you don't have to relearn tech" solution...but even google fails me. ;) (Ok, really...my antipathy towards relearning how to code is what's failing me...but allow me this brief moment of blaming google, if you will.)
