Found on the street in Baltimore

As I've said on many occasions, one of the benefits of having a low-traffic site is that, if you feel like it, you can check out a lot of the visitors as they come by.

Today, a visitor operating from a Baltimore-based personal injury law firm called Ingerman & Horwitz LLP came here searching on Google for "severed penis found on street in Baltimore."

Of course, all Marylanders know about "patriotic gore/That flecked the streets of Baltimore," but somehow the writer of our horrendous state song seems to have left out the part about the severed penis.

Occasionally, when a visitor arrives through an odd search, I'll check to see what else turned up in that search. So when I checked this particular search on Google, I was surprised to find that, at the top of the page, Google had a link to a map of "severed penis found on street in Baltimore, MD." Intrigued, I expanded the map and discovered, by asking for directions to what appeared to be the nearest interesection, that the "severed penis found on street in Baltimore, MD" was located 71 feet from the corner of North Calvert and East Fayette Streets.

So if any of my readers should happen to find themselves near that intersection in Baltimore and should discover a severed penis, please notify the appropriate authorities. (Namely, the personal injury law firm of Ingerman & Horwitz LLP.)
