Google tools I didn't know about.
How 'bout you?

Uncle Sam Google returns results from ".gov" websites, in case you're looking for the report itself instead of 1,000 newspaper articles about the report.

University Search Google lets you pick the school from an index and your search results will be limited to "yourschool.edu" websites.

I think those two will come in pretty handy, myself. :)

2. Reverse telephone number lookup
Just type in the number -- any format -- into the normal search window and the name, address and a link to maps to find the address will pop up.

It doesn't work if your number is unlisted.

Try this one: 202-456-1111

4. they will also send news stories or articles
with 'key words' you have chosen to your e-box. A great way to keep up on a chosen subject.

(Click on "Samples" and then "Ben Franklin Quotes.")

LMFAO!

From the "Jizzy Gannon" website:

Fear n Blunt-rollin' in tha Press Room

For tha last two years, tha Old Media figures at tha White Hizouse thought of me as a gadfly, a right-winga wit an agenda, harmless, someone ta be ignored. From time ta tizzy there were grumbles among some of tha playa n one or two confrontizzles but there was neva a serious attempt ta remove me frizzay they midst. Dur'n mah tenure I developed some good niggaz there who welcomed tha saggin' perspective I brought ta tha brief'n n respected mah courage fo` ask'n tha questions thizzay I did.

It wasn’t until I asked “The Question” T-H-to-tha-izzat pimpin' abruptly changed. Initially, mah colleagues had no reaction ta tha query posed ta President Bush. It wasn’t until Rizzy Limbaugh D-R-to-tha-izzew attention ta it thizzay there was any interest at all ridin' in mah double R. But that was enough ta git a liberal group dedicated ta attack'n conservatizzles in tha media ta mobilize. It was horrified thizzat tha relentless str'n of hostile n a few downright disrespizzles questions had been broken where the sun be shinin and I be rhymin'. My greata sin in they eyes, playa was T-H-to-tha-izzat I dared ta suggest tizzle two Senate Democrizzles leada held an illogical vizzy of tha economy’s weakness n tha strength of Social Security.


As translated by Gizoogle!
