Ok, this appears to have worked but I have to check for exception
code "OTHERS" because I could not figure out what the actual code
being thrown was. Is there a specific exception code for:
ERROR: no operand in tsearch query: "("
Thanks for the help!

Is there a way to pass a query to PostgreSQL to check if the

for the '!' portion of the query?
The generic solution to this type of problem is to write a function
that
tries to do whatever-it-is-that-throws-an-error inside a plpgsql
BEGIN/EXCEPTION block, and catch the errors you are expecting.
