Procrastinating with Google

  1. Unless Santiago Bozzolo is in the USA giving bass lesson without telling us, a strange coincidence can be found in cyberspace:

  1. Guillermo Bozzolo really must lose some head weight and really ought to think about plastic surgery to improve definition in his facial features. He should also think about adding some projects to his lists of credits:

  1. Despitet a questionable NASA web page, the G. Bozzolo Chronological Bibliography is extensive and quite impressive:

http://www.icmsc.org/biblio01.html

  1. And despite my urging to include Tungston (W)—or Titanium, at the very least—G. Bozzolo insists that the versatility of the Bozzolo Ferrante Smith method for alloys is demonstrated through multiphase precipitation in a five-element Ni Al Ti Cr Cu alloy and the formation of mixed composition Co Cu islands on a metallic Cu (111) substrate. Harvard seems to agree with G. Bozzolo—though it should be noted that they have a long history of anti-Tungston behavior. Most recently, they laughed at my proposal of a new Tungston spin-off: Titungston (cleverly named after the rare magnetic marrying of Tungston and Titanium):

  1. And despite ignoring my advice, G. Bozzolo won a distinguished award in 1999:

  1. Not to be outdone, Dr. Nora Bozzolo was once the proud recipient of the Silver Snoopy:

  1. This site clearly didn’t check for Bozzolos in Ohio:

  1. The Italian Commune of Bozzolo has a tourism website that literally has not improved in two years (I first visited the website two years ago and it’s still not finished):

http://www.comune.bozzolo.mn.it/INDEX.htm (For a brief English description of Bozzolo, Italy: http://www.ngw.nl/int/ita/b/bozzolo.htm)

  1. Americans are curious about Immigrant records. If only a site like this existed for Argentine ports:

  1. Adriano Bozzolo, a talented sculptor, should really think about taking web design courses:

  1. Bozzolo’s Sign is the pulsating of vessels in the nasal mucous membrane, noted occasionally in aneurism of the thoracic aorta. It was named after Camillo Bozzolo who discovered it in the late 1800s.
  1. “Bozzolo is a harness for children aged 3 to 10 years. Absolutely safe and easy to use, it is ideal to introduce your children to flying.”

  1. Villa Della Porta Bozzolo:

  1. Relatives in Chile?

  1. Amazingly, out of the 27,000+ hits for “Bozzolo”, Julia and Dawn appear right next to each other (for OSU Research and APA, in the 171-180 hit range)

Years ago I Googled "Julia Bozzolo" and found that both words appeared in Canto 46 of "Orlando Furioso". I went on to tell a few people and generally make fun of this work with such a stupid name. Because, really, it sounds so stupid.
Then, just about 4 weeks ago, I attended a lecture that was, surprisingly, all about "Orlando Furioso" and how it became the canon of what was "good literature" in 16th century Spain and Italy. I guess it's a classic after all (with a stupid name).
Another reason why I'm going to hell.
