I actually applied for and was accepted as a Google researcher a few years back, when I had plenty of time on my hands. You can actually get paid to look up stuff for people on the net (or could, I don't know if they still do it.) Once you have a hang of good search methods its pretty easy to find obscure stuff on the internet. + and - are your best friends when searching.

Try meat tenderizer on those fire ant bites. It works! DH is very allergic to the bites, and between the Adolph's and a Benedryl he is now okay with them. We have lots here in SW Florida! Will try mixing the piles--sounds better than all those chemicals.

Not Simon, but he's got the search thing down - here's an example:
Looking for blue shoes in size 81/2, but not interested in tennis shoes:
shoes + blue + 81/2 -tennis

" around multiple word searches is a godsend too.
"TENNIS SHOES" Yields only about 1/4 the responses you would get if NOT qualifying ( but still 1.8 million laugh )
