Fun with Google

On Jordan Jesse Go!, a podcast I listen to obsessively like, Jesse mentioned that he googled a misspelling of his name (Jesse Thorne instead of Jesse Thorn) and found a New York Times article from 1887 titled, "Whipped Her False Lover; Jesse Thorne Gets a Lashing in a Jersey City Street." He broke up with his fiance, saying he couldn't financially support a wife. Later, she saw him on the street with another woman on his arm. She tracked him down and, "drawing the rawhide from under her cloak laid it vigorously about him." Hearing Jesse and Jordan talk about the oldtime-y language and the gossipy nature of it was hilarious.

So, I was inspired to google my own name, and found, after my school's website, a couple places I have volunteered, and proof that was trained to drive a 15 passenger van at the U eight years ago... this! It seems the State University of New York at Buffalo has among its many research centers, a Center for Applied Technologies in Education (CATE), and a Center for Applied Research in Library & Information Science (CARLIS).

Whoa!

So, dear readers, if there were a research center that had your name as an acronym, what would it be?
