Oh, yeah ... there's also that, too. But it's a minor detail.

I've heard that too. I believe that it has lots of stars. ;-)

Now, I feel differently. I like my work and have been lucky enough to 
have jobs that I would have paid to do. (Almost ;-) )
I’d like to cut down the number of days I work, as I get older, to maybe

Last year, I did a query for "cheese toast", expecting to get some 
nutritional data.

Nope. It gave me the distance from Toast, USA to Cheddar, UK. (About 
1,000 miles, BTW.)

Today, it gives the correct answer. ;-) And it's all becuase of ME! :-D
