Your search queries answered, #2.

Lijit totally rocks… It’s not that I couldn’t figure this out myself, but I love the weekly e-mails that tell me my top searches:

  1. “skott klebe” (1 time)
  2. fucking primary sources Peter the Great (1 time)
  3. shark hybrid (1 time)
  4. compare the movie to the book Flowers for Algernon (1 time)
  5. ate AA batteries (1 time)
  6. human hybrid (1 time)

I mean, as long as searches 1 & 2 weren’t originally concatenated together, there’s no downside!  All knowledge is good.

Now, on to your queries.

#1, guilty as charged.  How can I help you?

Mr or Ms. #2. I am sorry, but I do not understand your request.  Comma positioning could make all the difference, as could a subject or an active verb.  Consider rephrasing.

#3. I continue to surprised at the ongoing volume of human-shark hybrid queries on this site.  Clearly I am addressing an unfulfilled need.  I guess it’s time to drop the news that I am in the process of setting up a blog for my occasional guest poster, Bob Selacchi, the Shark-Man of Sales, who’s way too busy with his schedule as Noted Sales Expert and Motivational Speaker to take care of mundane details himself.

#4. Although I have read every single version of Daniel Keyes’ story, Flowers for Algernon, including the novel published in tandem with the movie Charly, I have never seen the film.  I recommend the Hugo-winning novella over the novel, which takes rather too long to complete its circle.

#5. While I am aware that this site does have a post or two that would appear to be highly relevant to a search about eating AA batteries, I hope, whoever you are, that you found something that better addressed your direct need.

6.  Technically, a human-human hybrid would simply be a conventional child, wouldn’t it? Am I missing something?
