They search. I deliver …
The internal working of Google is shrouded in mystery, and that’s a good thing. Because if they made their algorithm public, then snotbags would manipulate the system, and every search you put in would return 15 pages of sites trying to sell you manhood-extending pills.
Unfortunately though, this information-blackout means I am unable to explain why Google decided to send the following searchers here …
“dylan moran toaster”
- HAR! That sounds like a great idea! Like the George Foreman Grill.
“how to draw neked ladys”
- Step 1) Lern to spel betur.
“des bishop gay?”
- Not this again. NO I DON’T THINK DES BISHOP IS GAY. In his act he talks about dating girls!
“fiscal policy cartoon”
- How the hell would I convey THAT in a cartoon?
“cameron diaz caricature sketch”
- Good idea. I’ll get right on it
“grainne seoige’s bum”
- Who keeps typing this in to Google? It turns up at least once a month.
“upwardly mobile on rte”
- Welcome to 1997 and the worse sitcom ever broadcast.
“miserable swine”
- It’s true. I am.
“sean hughes is lonely”
- Ah the poor divil.
“sean hughes bad actor”
- Jesus, get off his back. The man’s doing his best.
“tickling lee evans”
Alright, but this cartoon better not turn up on some bizarre fetish site.
Newsflash: There Appear To Be Weirdos Using The Internet
According to my logfiles, here are some search-terms people have been using to get to this site …

“washing carrots in the washing machine”
- How I spent Christmas day is my own business.
“fat bald irish comedians”
- Is someone starting a support group?
“pat kenny’s sexuality …”
- … will never be discussed on this website.
“sharon ni bheolain boyfriend”
- Aw, she promised me she’d never tell!
“wine glass, japan, comedian”
- Karl Spain’s backstage demands are getting excessive.
“i pulled down my trousers and pants”

More Sightings …
First up “Boo” to this Entertainment-For-Hire site that borrowed my Borat for their Caricaturist page (After cropping my signature out) and didn’t give any attribution or even let me know. Just for that I won’t give them a link. Feel free to spit on the screen here …
But “Yay” to the folks over at this interesting and scholarly site about Oscar Wilde, The Oscholars, who used my picture but named their source and put up a link back …
David O’Doherty more popular than I realized …
My cartoon of David O’Doherty (A.k.a “Mizo Dan”, see below) has turned up on a website called “buannel”. I’ve no idea what’s being said though. Google Translate doesn’t recognise the language.

K Club Party Pic
This is a cartoon of the Social Committee from where I work. It was printed on the bottom of the menu, at a party in the K Club. On the far right is a self-portrait, which everyone agreed was rubbish. Oh well …
