How dull the world would be without our favorite Big Brother, Google! I was trying to find out just now if Blue Collar Dog Food is still being sold so’s I could make a comment about Detroit’s blue-collar hero, Brandon Inge.

So I don’t get any hits (at least on the first page of results) for the dog food I remember from the 1980s that a friend of mine who had a farm used to buy. IIRC, it was sold in huge brown bags with a blue line drawing of a pointer on the front.

IIRC, it was inexpensive and its slogan was, “for working dogs” or something like that. (This setup is getting too damn long…)

So I try Googling “blue collar dog food” and get bupkes. So I try “bluecollar dog food” just in case. And I get this as one of the top results:

Dog swam 6 miles through shark-infested waters, survived 4 months on a desert island

WTF?!?
