    Sure, it's dead serious! How else did you think they do it.

    And when the pigeons are in heat that is when the rankings get all f**ked up. :D

    Yea, I think this was April Fools/2003 (2004 was the Lunar Base ... and (some people thought) 1 GByte gmail accounts) ... well done by Google. Related to that is their Holiday Logo's, and you can see all of 'em here. I got a chuckle out of the recent Father's Day one, so I used it on my growing grass page.

    What does that mean? Maybe we could get to know you better if we could understand you?

    So the staff even get paid when they have nothing better to do but type up nonsense?

    And what's up with the Google toolbar today? I am getting "No PageRank information available" on all sites.

    Ok, you experienced guys didn't like it. :(

    Anyway I was not even using computers 3 years ago. Hence if there are like minded people they can laugh. :)
