which is better name larry or lawrence

Of course, I have a few thoughts about this:

1. Laura Linney has lots of fans. Who knew? I guess there is a market for brainy talented women. Good. But why are they winding up here? In the two-and-a-half years of writing this blog, I’ve mentioned her once. And unlike with Kate Winslet, I didn’t post a topless photo.
2. Paul Auster has lots of fans too. (“Augie Wren’s Christmas Story” is by Mr. Auster. Originally it was told, by Harvey Keitel, in the movie “Smoke.” Then it was published as a book.)
3. I’ve removed from these search listings the names of friends and loved ones. I’ll tell you why. I’ve written here before about “internet death”: finding out via the internet that someone you know has died. Well, someone searched “(insert name of Lee’s friend here) dies.” It was for a friend I hadn’t spoken with in a few months. My blood ran cold. I checked and he’s still alive.
4. Someone Googled “april.” And this blog came up. As well as 1 out of every 12 other websites in the universe.
5. Someone searched for “people.” This search makes me think that some people shouldn’t have Google or computers or electricity. Perhaps the only less-defined search one could perform than “people” would be “a” or “the.” Or, actually, “e.”
6. What’s with the straw? Someone wants to know “can you receive social security benefits after you take your strawman back.” Me? Not so much. Someone else searched “make you eat out of straw illegal.” If it isn’t, it should be.
7. What’s with the Larry? So many Larry searches. Larry larry larry. Including this one: “which is better name larry or lawrence.” The latter. Here’s why:

(Sorry, Larry.)
