just what I needed...

Just what I needed -- something to waste my time at work.

I may have to kill Phil, who just introduced me to the concept of Googlewhacking, a highly addictive and terribly time-consuming pasttime.

The goal is to find unique sets of two Google search terms, which together return only one result. This was my first one: sphygmomanometer necrophilia

And then, as if looking for these wasn't bad enough, you can score them based on their relative rareness by multiplying the number of results found by each search term alone. So for that example, sphygmomanometer returns 11,100 results, while necrophilia returns 22,700 results, for a total score of 251,970,000.

Also:
callipygian obelisk score: 204,880,000
antipathetic frisbee score: 1,398,260,000
deoxyribonucleic philandering score: 844,900,000

I'll add to these as I think of more. Feel free to add your own to my comments.
