...Some Days are Stone

As the old country tune goes, Some days are diamonds and some days are stone. Today is stone. First of all the Supremes--NOT the musical group--decided that we all have to buy insurance or get fined and that is OK with the constitution. Then I am looking at the search results for a major keyword I had before penguin and am trying to get back.
The guy that owns first place in all of Google for that word has exactly 2 domains pointing at his site. One of which has 2 backlinks and the other has 492 all are anchored with the exact keyword because they are coming off the blogroll of those websites. His site only his 5 pages indexed by Google.
So much for all of the SEO none-sense out there. What makes it worse is that the rest of the page is occupied by seriously keywords stuffed tumblr pages and about 6 You Tube references.
The second page has all You Tube results except for one metacafe result. It is really a waste land of results that, before penguin, used to have relevant results. (Including mine of course :)
A pox upon the Supreme Court, our stupid Government and Google.
There, I feel a bit better.

P.S. Call me a mean b--st-rd, but I don't want to be forced to finance other peoples health care and I don't want to take other peoples money to finance mine.
Better dead than red!
