The idle musings of a former military man, former computer geek, medically retired pastor and now full-time writer. Contents guaranteed to offend the politically correct and anal-retentive from time to time. My approach to life is that it should be taken with a large helping of laughter, and sufficient firepower to keep it tamed!

Google Search FAIL!
Graham Norton and some guests on the BBC make some interesting discoveries . . .
Yes, it was funny. Now go to Google and begin a search, and guess what you will find-your sentences finished for you, but also, your questions more or less categorized or put into a certain context. This means that over a period of time Google has gotten your number so to speak and gives you info on things THEY think you will want. I actually looked for, through yahoo, a complete list of search engines, bookmarked it, and now use it. I used to use Google exclusively, and now only use it VERY seldom. Consider this my small "political" revolt.
That was funny! Thanks, Peter.
