Finding/Not finding.

Life can be strange.  I have stumbled on an article on fizzy toilet bombs (http://candleandsoap.about.com/od/bathbody/ss/How-to-Make-Fizzy-Toilet-Bombs.htm?nl=1)
It is how to clean the toilet with a twist.  I never saw anything like that before.  I haven't tried that yet, so I don't know if it is effective.  I am curious, nonetheless.  So, I may end up trying it eventually.  I do like when something is used out of context for another purpose.  I was happy to see this article.  It was a nice surprise.  It is nice finding little tibits of information.

On other hand, not finding what I am searching for is quite frustrating.  I found a text on Eleonore von Scharzenberg.  She was a noblewoman.  Here a bit more information about her:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleonore_von_Schwarzenberg.  I know it is wikipedia but it was pretty much all I could find with a quick search.  I have seen the documentary on the Smithsonian channel.  The sad thing is it is barely mentionned in the wikipedia page.  I would like to confirm what the documentary on the Smithsonian channel advance in their theory.  They think she is a suspected vampire.  I look on amazon to see if there was any book on her.  I was thinking that if she had link with vampirism, someone would have written about it.  I ended with an empty search.  Quite surprising.  She was a noblewoman and a suspected vampire.  I wonder if she was not overshadowed by Elisabeth Bathory (http://history.howstuffworks.com/history-vs-myth/hungarian-countess-serial-killer1.htm).

I am not defeated yet.  I am just vexed.  I feel I should find faster and easier than other people.  I have learned the techniques of searching for information.  I think I need a strategy and find the information I need in the right places...
