MIKAL NEEDS

From Ingrid over at ice cream, a fun Google-generated meme.

Here's how it works: Visit Google.com, and put your first name followed by the word needs in quotations in Google's search box (for example, "mikal needs") and click the 'Google Search' button. Write down the top 10 results. Here are mine:

  1. "Mikal needs our help badly." Courtesy of Torch the Bridge. Apparently, Mikal's home computer went down in February of this year, and he needed help getting it back up (no comment).
  2. "Mikal needs a change of scenery time and again, and through 2002 Mikal will be DJing frequently around Europe. This one, found here, goes on to say, "Buzzards of the record industry beware. The Norwegian Indie Record Phantom is here."
  3. "Mikal needs prayers. A little digging revealed that Mikal Spruill passed away after a lengthy illness. This site contains some messages from a family member.
  4. "Mikal Needs Ride to Cattle Raid." Subject line of a University of Nebraska-Lincoln listserv message from September of 1999. FYI... Just for the record, I didn't get into cattle raiding until early in 2002, so clearly this message is from a Mikal other than myself.
  5. "Mikal needs a date to a formal." No, I don't (Google link led me here). What I need is an invitation!
  6. "Mikal needs a vote of thanks all round....Well done Mikal!" Aww jeeze; thanks everyone; you make me blush..
  7. One area that Mikal needs to improve in is word recognition. He has difficulty sounding out new words that he meets when he reads. This is so not true... why just the other day I was telling a friend that it deosnít mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht frist and lsat ltteer is at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses and I can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae I do not raed ervey lteter by it slef but the wrod as a wlohe.So there!
  8. "Mikal needs to show him what itís all about" (from a message board located here). Those are famous last words, I'm sure of it; but whose?
  9. Have a go and find the cheapest, discount Mikal imaginable in Canada! So come buy with Bid On Auctions for all your Mikal Needs. Let the bidding begin... [read next section super fast]...one dollar bid, now 2, now 2, will ya give me 2? Two dollar bid, now 3, now 3, will ya give me 3? Three dollar bid, now 4, now 4, will ya give me 4?
  10. Since this is a clean blog, Mikal needs to not show you the 10th result from the "mikal needs" Google search meme (Mom, just trust me on this one).

As is characteristic with some memes, I'm going to tag a few bloggers with this one, including Scott over at Sardonic Bomb, Josette at Halushki, Matt at Holzmann's Inside World, Steph at Commonplace Book, Mike at Mikerzz, Luke at Decisive Moments, and D. Lee at Banzai Chronicle.
