Ouch.

So I just learned the hard way that searching for "bones" in the LJ interests field yields practically nothing by pro-anorexia communities. Oy. ("Temperance Brennan" at least works as a good replacement term.)

(Speaking of LJ searches, what on earth has happened to ljseek.com? Every time I type in something, the max results returned are in the neighborhood of five, even for incredibly common terms. Anyone know a good LJ post search engine to use as a replacement? Or has LJ finally gotten on that boat and I just haven't been paying attention?)

The best LJ comm out there for Bones is 206_Bones for info and spoilers and fic and icons and pictures but they're pretty current on everything so you may get spoiled accidentally.

Heh. I think I've hit the point where it would be hard to spoil me for much more. (Only one more disc of S3 to go, anyway!) Thanks!

I don't know what's up with LJSeek (not that it does me any good whatsoever since I went FO). I could swear I remember reading something in a news post aeons ago saying that they were working on something you could use to search your journal, including locked posts if you were logged in, but I've heard nothing about it recently. :-\

[icepixie]

Bah. I use it to search public entries in general on LJ, and it worked okay (albeit with a time lag of about month from making a post to it showing up in a search), but now it's FUBAR.

If only Google actually searched LJ...

Oh, what I wouldn't give for a Google search for LJ. I've never understood why Google couldn't search pages that you're logged into--well, okay, I understand why, but it seems to me that there should be a way for Google to work its magic if you're logged in.

ETA: I keep forgetting to tell you (well, I remembered once and then LJ ate that part of the post and it never made it into the re-creation) that Pommes Frites in NYC has poutine! I will have to go back at some point and try it, but I thought of you as soon as I saw it on the menu.

[icepixie]

Oooooh, poutine! Tell me how it is, yes. One day, I will find somewhere to try it myself. Perhaps actually in Quebec. I can feel my arteries hardening already.

Yeah, I was describing it to Annie and telling her that it's one of those things that seems meant to kill you. Still want to try it, though!
