Never know what people are looking for online, do you?

You never know what sort of things people may look for on the Internet, do you? Sometimes it’s just fun to see all the oddball stuff out there, whether we’re talking about celebrity gossip, rare antiques on eBay, good garage floor tiles at some specialty site, or just odd news and information on Google or Yahoo.

I actually used to have an “Odd News” website bookmarked at one point a few years ago. I was sending out a humorous daily “ezine,” i.e., email newsletter, to a small mailing list, so I had the site marked and checked it frequently for stuff I could use in the newsletter.

I recently checked an “odd news” site and found stuff that really needs to include something like, “Kids, don’t try this at home.” Such stupid human tricks as — a convenience store clerk that flustered a robber and turned him away by insisting the robber show him his gun and a woman who was arrested covered with blood after she bit her boyfriend’s tongue off following an argument.

Really, people, how about a little more “odd news” and a little less “armed or dangerous” news? Lighten up, mankind!
