"Pizza with glue" -- I'll have to let my local pizza joint know! Might keep the toppings from falling off. :P I haven't used Google search in about 20 years.

Partly because Google removed some of the functionality (could no longer search for very specific phrasing) but mostly because now you had to go 2 or 3 pages down to get past the garbage and sponsored links. > > (My subject got truncated - reminded me of Ed's comment on SLMR's > tagline length.)
