And why?

In this old post of mine, Talking out of school, I reminisce about getting a spanking on the first day of school. Almost everyday since then, I've got at least one hit on that post from a Google search for "spanking".

I suspect a lot of those Googlers are disappointed by my post. A lot of them are not from the U.S. either.

So far today, it's been viewed three times, from Poland, Malaysia, and Norway.

UPDATE: (7:38 pm) Indianapolis

UPDATE II: add Canada.

Just wondering... should I reopen comments on that post?

Youngest daughter on other end...

"Mom, are you at your computer? We're at a restaurant, would you look up something for us? This is really bothering us..."

"Sure, what is it?" I ask, as I sit down to fire up the browser.

"Who wrote Hungarian Rhapsody?" she asks.

"Rachmaninoff." I answer, confidently. No need to Google that.

"No, no... that's what your perfect son-in-law thinks." [So, what more proof do you want? Your husband and your mother, both couldn't be wrong could they?] "It starts with an "S", the composer's name, but I can't think of it right now."

"Shostakovich?" I ask.

"Yes! that's it!" I hear her convey this info to her husband, as confident in Shostakovich as I am in Rachmaninoff.

By that time, this Google page is staring at me.
