Interesting that most of items searched were about entertainers and about entertainment (why Phantom of the Opera? Are they putting up a show there?). I mean it shouldn't be a surprise really. I was wondering if people just go directly to their known sources and their bookmarks for their non-entertainment information. This snapshot was ...

"Commitment can be best illustrated by a breakfast of ham and eggs... The chicken was involved, the pig was committed." Remember one of those Choose Your Own Adventures books? I was reading one of those and it was very frustrating. My character keeps dying and I have to keep flipping back to the preceding pages.
