Four are from Google and three are from Yahoo. If you ever think that these mega companies don't have access to stuff, guess again. It's okay for them to look here, this is a public forum. One has to wonder how much access they have to your personal computer whenever you are on line.

Did you read the other day that Apple has a kill switch built into I-phones that they can terminate software on all i-phones from their headquaters? They say that it will be used only if improper software is somehow loaded onto the network. If they can take stuff out, I guess they can put stuff in.

I have an I-phone and, now I feel like somebody is hooked up to my belt other than me. >:(

Oops, I just noticed, they actually do spell it S P I D E R rather than S P Y D E R.

Does anyone else get a creepy crawly sensation on your neck when told there are 7 spiders crawling around?

I hope y'all know that every post you make here is subject to being seen on the world-wide-web by everyone in the world; all they have to do is Google your handle ::) Maybe that's another reason why the spiders are crawling around ::)

ConeyIsBabe,

Holy you-know-what! I didn't know that and I "googled" my "tkret" and there it is. The Internet is great but it can be scary, too. George Orwell? I guess there's no way around it, though.

I'm crushed! I Googled 'Sidney Lanier' and scrolled through the first TWENTY pages of references and found tons of them about the 'real' Sidney Lanier and things named after him (lake, bridge, schools) but nothing about the 'assumed' Sidney Lanier. How disappointing!

Holy cow, I did not know that! However I just googled my "handle" and by some great good luck, there are 21 million items under barefoot at last! I feel less exposed.

But now I know if I go to Barefoot Bay I can swap my partner. This information might come in handy the next time Fireboy gets unruly.

We can work on that immigration problem.
