I See Your Search Ranking and I'll Raise You One Blue Thingy

Friday July 1, 2005
I know nothing about the game of poker, other than what I've seen on such acclaimed films as "Honeymoon in Vegas." That is the extent of my poker knowledge. This from Online Poker News:
"Lycos, Inc. announced that poker clocked in as the number one most searched term on the Lycos search engine for the week ending June 25, 2005. Although poker is a regular on the Lycos 50 list, published every week, even frequently occupying places in the top ten, this is Poker's first time at number one. Poker beat out other hot topics, such as Pamela Anderson, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears and diets."
Apparently I'm out of the loop as far as poker, but I can play a mean game of Uno.
