Barney Google

Today is my 200th posting and I thought I would salute GOOGLE who makes it all possible to BLOG out into the blogosphere - and it's FREE. So here's a chorus of the 1923 hit "Barney Google" with lyrics by Billy Rose:
-Barney Google with the goo goo goo-galy eyes-
Barney Google had a wife three times his size -
She sued Barney for divorce -
Now he's living with his horse -
Barney Google  - with the goo goo goo-galy eyes.

Billy Rose was an American impresario of the day and a theatrical showman and songwriter. He was famous for his water ballets where he would have his aquanauts swimming in synchronized motion. But this song wasn't one of his better efforts. After 200 posts I may find myself easing back to a weekly thought but we'll see how far it goes. But for now "Here's to Google"!
