A Case of the Mondays
I was just on the yahoo homepage, and underneath "Today's Top Searches" it said, "Symptoms of Depression". I was trying to think if there were one singular event that happened in some part of the nation to cause everyone to be depressed, or if it is just something people look up on Mondays. So I then looked to other "top searches" and saw that "diet plans" and "lunch ideas" were right up there with "car dealerships" and "Notre Dame". So I guess people are feeling fat but hungry for lunch, and the issue of abortion upsets them. And they would like to buy a car, but so many people are out of work, which doesn't explain why "Eva Longoria" is still holding strong on internet searches...or does it? Either way, they may have to add one more symptom to that list: 11. Looking up "Symptoms of Depression" on the internet.

I took a look at hot searches today on Google.

A few notable searches:
At 31, "Hooters Calendar" followed closely by
"Peanut Butter Smack" sitting at 33. At 57, "Mt. St Helens Eruption", which makes sense since its mega-explosion was 29 years ago today. At 90 is "Ohio Department of Commerce." For all the Ohioans--check it out and go to the treasure hunt link. Unclaimed funds may be waiting for you--I found a few familiar names in there. And of course, at 99, it's the "antichrist." I'm not sure if people are looking for weak political tie-ins to make excuses or are just plain curious as to when this dude is going to make himself known.
