The most used says "I can feel it still"; like the song. Like it's 1966 now.

Do you mean to say that these titles do not entitle you to a seat in the House of Lords? I'm shocked; shocked, I tell you!

My thought is that major companies would advertise on google and elsewhere to gain credit rather than seeking to being ranked by an unknown company

That turns out not to be the case - companies can be just as daft as individuals (or dafter).
There is a version of "fake invoice fraud" where a company receives an an invoice for ... invoicing them.
Pre internet, this was raising millions from some very large companies ...

Do you ever wonder how you will die or when it will happen?
I was thinking about that several days ago, and decided I don't care, as long as it is quick.

No, but I was wondering the same about you.

Sort of dark, and Chris may restore the soapbox for you. It's Thanksgiving here in the US, and the first turkey is cooking and smelling up the house. But since you are in a morbid mood, here you go

It may interest you to know that in the (Theravadan) Buddhist tradition the mendicant, wandering, teacher who called himself the Tathagata (one who has gone there) ... aka Buddha ... never mentions reincarnation/past-lives.
In the Malunkyaputta Sutra, the Tathagata mocks the monk Malunkyaputta for his questions about such things. [^]

I've heard one reason why certain systems do not mention reincarnation. To instill a sense of urgency and focus in achieving one's goal. If reincarnation is accepted, then there is likelihood of procrastination, saying that "There is anyway one more lifetime here".
Of course there are other systems such as mine, in Hinduism, where continuity is told - that whatever spiritual efforts we put now, will continue in future lives, and that we will be born in such households which foster such continuity.

And the obligatory death joke…
I want to die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather. Nor screaming and crying like his passengers.
