Considering myself more a Milwaukean then a Minnesotan I find it humorous that this year I have lived in the two drunkest cities. According to the duluthsuperior.com Forbes is reporting that Milwaukee is “America’s Drunkest City”. At least the article puts a positive spin on it in the end saying there are other things to do in Milwaukee.
Which there are. Like take a brewery tour or go to a Brewers game or any of the other fine non-alcohol related good time you can have in Milwaukee. But why would you want to do it without a good beer?

I just downloaded the AOL ’s release of the search queries for a half million users from the mirrors and I wanted to see if any of the sites I maintain are listed in it. So then I went to the command line and tried grep. I am big newbie to grep, so I had to read the man file.
From what I figured these work. There may be better solutions.
in it’s simplest: replace pattern with the word you are looking for, and file with the file name you want to grep. It then creates a file in your current directory called resultfile.txt.
grep -i pattern file > resultfile.txt
to search for lines that contain multiple words: (repeat the “| grep pattern” for each word)
grep -i pattern1 file | grep pattern2 > resultfile.txt
to search for lines that have pattern1 and exclude lines that have pattern2
grep -i pattern1 file | grep -v pattern2 > resultfile.txt
Maybe you know grep better, but I thought this would be a fun topic for you to try. Let me know what you find and if you have any better ways to grep thru this data.
