How can I search for the "quote of the day" thread? The word "quote" is omitted, and the remaining words are too short to register.

I just wanted to post this:

My wife found this as a book-on-tape (literally, cassette tape) at the thrift store and I'm listening to it on my god-awfully long commute.

Here's the thread: http://cellar.org/showthread.php?t=9799

Sometimes it's easier to google:

site:cellar.org "quote of the day"

Use the above including quotes. It tells google to limit itself to the cellar and search the entire string between the quotes.

I've tried using them, but don't seem to have the touch. I end up with an empty preview box...

Help?

Yeah, that's odd. I went through the list, about 7 or 8 threads, and saw no one in any of them!

Why has the curmudgeon factor increased so much as of late, even among the youngers?

And get the HELL OFF MY LAWN.

Seriously, some of y'all act like you're about 90.

Nah, you're alright. Oh hey, I'm a cynic, don't get me wrong...

I just try not to be an crotchety old fart before I'm 80.
