Two! It was Men At Arms: "A survey by the Ankh-Morpork Guild of Merchants of tradespeople in the dock areas of Morpork found 987 women who gave their profession as “seamstress.” Oh…and two needles."

Umm Patton like the pattern used for clothes making? I believe in over 39 years I have not heard that one (and I have heard most!)

It's a Pratchett reference to the Guild of Seamstresses (Night watch, but also in Men At Arms)

If you hover over the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button on https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl[^] you get different options.

Ever notice that ubiquitous “I’m feeling lucky” button on the Google homepage that you've probably never used. What if I told you that this small little piece of grey rectangle, costs Google over 110 million dollars a year!
That’s right! What this button effectively does, is that it takes the user directly to the top search result for that query thereby bypassing all the other top 9 results and also the ads that get displayed alongside them. Brin was recently quoted as saying that almost 1% of all Google searches go through the “I’m feeling lucky” button and that costs the company around $110 million in annual revenue.

That's kinda cool! Though I'm not too keen on the idea of my wife showing off all of her late husbands at sometime in the distant future: "...and here's my late husband Nick, and here's my late husband George, and here's my late husband Bob...he turned out to be a big one didn't he!"
