Google put me out of work.



Backstory

Props to L2L3, who made me consider that my well-honed skill as a fountain of useless knowledge is no longer utilized the way it used to be.

Depends on one's network ...my 3g is so slow I'd rather text for an answer ;-)

accidentaltourist says,

Well, I do still get the occasional text from friends and family..."who was that guy in that movie about the truck...and there was a monkey...?"

L2L3 says,

Jeopary awaits your audition.

accidentaltourist says,

Ha! Unlikely. I think I will remain a legend in my own mind.

Bevvie says,

kudos on the feature!

accidentaltourist says,

Oh hey...how 'bout dat....thanks Bevvie. :)

SomebodysFool says,

Even though my sister has a smart phone and internet at home, she still calls me when she doesn't know who sings a particular oldies song or what the song is called. Either she hasn't realized Google has the answer to everything or she thinks I'm a better resource than Google ;) Either way, being a overflowing sea of useless knowledge is always a good thing.

knowledge a mile wide and an inch deep can still be fun.

accidentaltourist says,

Oh, skyrocketjones...I LIKE that. :)

BanjoDan says,

one person's useless knowledge is another person's treasure!
