Yahoo 1 – Google 0

Yahoo is doing it right... again!

I wondered aloud on my blog the other day as to whether or not Google was censoring my blog… and the blogs of my family? A little investigation seemed to confirm this concern. First, Laura’s blog hadn’t been visited by a Google spider sincePresident Warren baker of Cal Poly, allegedly early June… although the hits log remained heavy. Secondly, some of my favorite pictures from my blog including ‘Clown Poly’ allegedly of Cal Poly’s aging President Warren Baker mysteriously disappeared from Google’s search engine! Dastardly deeds were indubitably afoot!

So, I did a little political blog about Cal Poly’s latest fiasco and watched to see who picked it up. It’s little more than protesting  the fact that Cal Poly is doing business with a country that discriminates against women… a ‘no brainer’, or should have been. Well… I am still waiting Google… but Yahoo has it up!

By the way, Google, whacking my daughter and wife’s sites was a little C.S…. wouldn’t you agree?

Here it is on the Yahoo Search engine!

Here’s the original post!

viva Yahoo,

So my little personal protest… switching everything to Yahoo

Family Fun at grandma Char’s

fun and games at Grandma Char's

I believe in the ‘perpetual learner.’ This is the concept that we are forever students… willingly taking in new ideas and experiences and hopefully understanding a bit more of our world. Yep. I learned a lot this weekend.

My mother aka Grandma Char had a fun family gathering this weekend and although I was told I wouldn’t have to cook… here I am running the BBQ! It was only afterwards that my nephew and his bud confesses to being BBQ masters! Hmmm… I was played. Laura and Karen brought Carrot Cake, Apple Pie and Ice Cream and my sister Jennifer donated all the meat and sausage It was wonderful!

One small problem… Laura was kind enough to run home and grab some of my cutting tools… in particular a  Cutco brand knife of which I am becoming very fond.

Karen and I posted all of the pictures on Facebook… they’re public.
