Google her username, she’s _everywhere._ Almost all country music boards, fan sites and artists’ sites.

Hmmm, won’t be able to do a blind test then. I won’t anytime soon be near a computer on which I’ve never visited SDMB. I’ll be near a computer on which I’ve never been to this _Thread_ but not a computer on which I’ve never been to this messageboard.

They don’t do it to be nice.

They do it so they can feel superior.

What’s so weird about asking LeAnn Rimes for gas prices? I called Morgan Freeman to see if Tesco had any really good coupons yesterday.

I think that she is crazy and trolling for atheists since this board has many.

I’m glad somebody finally pitted this sanctimonious asshole. I’m fucking sick to death of the smilies and godblessyous. I was hoping she’d just get tired of nobody taking her part and just go away, but instead she’s hung around like a nasty fungus that just won’t die.

I wonder how all those country singers feel about Holly bombarding their websites with praise for another singer. She has 738 posts on Miranda Lambert’s site, in a little over a year.

I’d like to know where she thinks the Bible says people who commit suicide are going to hell. It’s not in my Bible.

Jesus loves Holly and Mindy McReady, but is Holly is the one who embarasses him. (As a Christian and an Tennessean, I’m embarassed too).

Not just Tennessee; East Tennessee. Quite different from Nashville, Chattanooga, Memphis or other metro areas. Unfortunately her attitude is typical of Baptists of that region, who still believe that the devil is everywhere from Procter and Gamble to unseasonable weather. She probably believes that satanic messages are planted on vinyl, too. Sadly I have first hand real life experience with her kind and she’s not alone in her fevered, masturbatory glee in damning others.

But only if you are allowing cookies, right?

In the interest of science, I tried running the search in my regular browser, and then separately in a completely different browser program with maximum security/privacy settings–all cookies from all sites blocked. This thread easily makes the top half of the first page for both Google and Bing. The Google results on my regular browser _are_ different, but it only makes a difference of one spot for this thread.

In fairness, the user name is not intended to state that she is his sweetheart. There are a couple ways to read it.
