-(dean, sheffield, calender, usaf, losers, pottery, nasa, china, buick, saucer, rosemary, rainbow, caron, granada, baby, relish, salt, billy jack, steel, license plate)

No joke.

Note: The "dean" is in all of my searches to avoid Mr. Extortion himself.

You actually don't need parentheses or commas in between words just a single space. For example if I'm searching for 1958 Topps this works the same way and let's you add more without hitting the limit.
