Hi Javan, this probably not going to do what you want but I found using
with_scope create a more readable code, not to mention I think it would
be resulted a better performance than going thru hash one by one,
especially when the resulting hash is a large one. Database is designed
to handle search better than going thru the hash in linear fashion.

ActiveSupport adds #index_by to Enumerable which seems like it might
be useful here:
<URL:http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/Enumerable.html#M001100>
@blurbs = Blurb.find(:all).index_by(&:name)
@blurbs would be a Hash keyed on the blurb names, allowing you to grab
@blurbs['about'], @blurbs['contact'], etc.
