EUREKA !
I�VE JUST INVENTED AN EXPRESSION !
SOMEBODY THANKED ME BY SAYING � � THANKS A ZILLION ! , WHICH IS QUITE OK AND COMMON.
I JUST WANTED TO THANK HER STRONGER AND I SAID:
THANKS A GOOGLE !
***The term �google� was originally �googol,� a term meaning the number
�1� followed by 100 zeroes, created by prominent mathematician Edward
Kasner. ...
THAT IS : THANKS A 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
PS: PLEASE DO NOT TRY AND COUNT THE ZEROES FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR EYES!!!
WHAT DO YOU THINK ? WOULD IT WORK ?
GOOGLE ALSO MEANS :search the internet (for information) using the Google search engine;
"He googled the woman he had met at the party"; "My children are
googling all day"

I don �t think most people would associate google with googal - unless they are mathematicians. Most people probably haven �t even heard of �googal �.
I think it needs to rhyme with million to let people know it �s a large number.
Thanks a Gazillion! |

thanks a google for such an interesting and funny way of saying thanks and recognizing other people �s work!!
Maybe this way it �ll be earsier to say "thank you for letting me use your work!" :) (hint hint) |
