True!  5 days ago?  I'm beginning to think he has abandoned us.  :-(

So, in honor of Adam Lasnik's MIA status, I've composed a little song,

"Oh where, oh where has our dear Adam gone,
Oh where, oh where can he be?

With his ears cut short and his tail, cut long
Oh where can our dear Adam be?"

There, like it?  Thought not.

I plan to compose the most annoying of songs each day and make all you
suffer through them until Adam Lasnik returns!!!

Craig, there is a place for you on American Idol.  Seriously think
about an audition.

On "American Idol" or on "American Idol Rejects"?

It is easy to be the best, just see how hard it is to be the worst!
Now THAT takes a LOT of work.

I'll do my best though.  :-)

"You ain't nothin' but a Adam Lasnik
Cryin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a Adam Lasnik
Cryin' all the time
Well, you ain't never caught a Google
And you ain't no friend of mine"

SEE?!?!?!  You guys thought I was kidding, right?

I AM SERIOUS!!!  WE WANT OUT ADAM BACK!!!

I hate caps locks!

I even got Barbara to sing it for us:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0tTCaFEEKI

Lyrics so you can follow along:

Isn't it rich?
Are we a pair?
Me here at last on the group,
You in the Plex.
Send in Adam Lasnik.

Isn't it bliss?
Don't you approve?
One who keeps tearing around,
One who can't move.
Where is Adam Lasnik?
Send in Adam Lasnik.

Just when I'd stopped opening mail,
Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours,
Making my entrance again with my usual flair,
Sure of my code,
No one is there.

Don't you love search?
My fault I fear.
I thought that you'd want what I want.
Sorry, my dear.
But where is Adam Lasnik?
There ought to be Adam.
Quick, send in Adam Lasnik.

What a surprise!
Who could foresee
I'd come to feel about Google
What you felt about thee?
Why only now when I see
That you've drifted away?
What a surprise...
What a cliche'...

Isn't it rich, isn't it weird?
Losing my timing this late in my career
And where is Adam Lasnik
Quick send in Adam Lasnik

Don't bother, he's here...

Wish Adam Were Here

So, so you think you can tell content from spam,
Good links from bad.
Can you tell hidden text from keyword stuffing? A penalty from a ban?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you trade their links for yours?
Reviews for fees? Hot air for good advice?
Old domains for change? And did you exchange
a sitewide link for one on the home page?

How I wish, how I wish Adam were here.
We're just all lost souls loosing position in the SERPS,
year after year,
running over the same old code. What have we found?
The same old errors,
wish Adam were here.

If you are truly a student of the '80s you can imagine me standing out
in front of the Googleplex standing in front of my car holding up the
boom box.

"In Your SERPS"

Adam, I get deindexed, sometimes
days pass and this emptiness fills my site
when I want to run away
I log off my account
but whichever site I go
I come back to the place you were

all my redirects, they return
and the link scheme, so soon will crash
without a noise, without a sign
I banned from the index again

in your SERPS
the right to be
in your SERPS
I am complete
in your SERPS
I see the doorway to a thousand pages
in your SERPS
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your SERPS
I see the right to be
in your SERPS
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the top
the spot I see in your SERPS

Adam, I don't like to see so much spam
so much wasted and this bandwith keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our inclussion
I look to the time with you to keep me indexed and ranked

Then all my redirects, they return
and the link scheme, so soon will crash
without a noise, without a sign
I banned from the index again

in your SERPS
the right to be
in your SERPS
I am complete
in your SERPS
I see the doorway to a thousand pages
in your SERPS
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your SERPS
I see the right to be
in your SERPS
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the top
the seat I see in your SERPS
in your SERPS in your SERPS
in your SERPS in your SERPS
in your SERPS in your SERPS

Following the Peter Gabriel theme, I present you:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-p2sbt_C4w

In this tight niche we grew up strong
We were wanted all along
I was taught to spam, taught to rank
I never thought I could fail

No pages left or so it seems
I am a site whose ranks have all plummeted
I've changed my font, I've changed my title
But no one wants you when your spam

Dont give up
cos you have Yahoo
Dont give up
Youre not banned yet
Dont give up
I know you can be included

Though I saw it all around
Never thought I could be affected
Thought that Big Daddy would miss us
It is so strange the way things turn

Logged into my Google account
The place that I uploaded, my sitemap
As daylight broke, I saw the SERPS
The pages had burned down to the ground

Dont give up
You still have ASK
Dont give up
They don't need much of anything
Dont give up
cause somewhere there's a index
Where we belong

Buy more links
You worry too much
Its going to be alright
When times get rough
You can fall back on ads
Don't give up
Please don't give up

got to get out of here
I cant take anymore
Going to sign up for AdWords
Keep watching my campaign
Rankings may come
And rankings may go
The SERPS are changing
The SERPS are changing

Moved on to another niche
Tried hard to settle in
For every word, so many sites
So many sites no-one needs

Dont give up
cause you have links
Dont give up
Youre not the only one
Dont give up
No reason to be banned
Dont give up
You still have Ask.
Dont give up now
We'll scrape some more content
Dont give up
You know its never been easy
Dont give up
cause I believe there's a index
There's a index where we belong
