i'm actually somewhat frightened

dustbury has a semi-regular feature of "strange search engine queries", but this blog may have just gotten one of the strangest ones ever:

#1 of 243 on google for "Quaker Oats made past the Crab nebula, near the Planet Q".

update: looks like this post has reinforced that #1 position. if you found this post via those search terms, could you please leave a comment clarifying what this search is for? (i'm hoping it's song lyrics...)

you bring up such fond memories, Hatless-

I fondly remember the first time I ever ate Quaker Oats with nebulaed Crab- a cool June day on Block Island, Rhode Island, 1986.

The extra crunchy ground-up clamshell crust; the buttery, sugary oats and (I understand that this is a Rhode Island specialty) drenched entirely in Quaker milk.

Twas very expensive, for a teenager then; but what exquisite
flavor, what an exquisite memory~

I could be mistaken, but my memory has it that as I ate this delicacy which you know much about, the song "Love Is A Many Splendered Thing" played in the background.
