| 511114 | 2006-12-31 00:51:00 | I guess the reporter was a little "confused" also - to put it kindly. How else could anyone translate "flew in to Christchurch Airport on Wednesday and left for Sydney on Friday night" to " spent four days in New Zealand" ? |

| 511117 | 2006-12-31 07:50:00 | I've got until the 20th to work that mess out. I am loathe to give in to the penguins because fo the traffic that page drives to my site. No wonder they are pissed, it ranks second for the terms macdonald burgers (www.google.com). Right after their own site! |

| 511118 | 2007-01-02 08:35:00 | , it ranks second for the terms macdonald burgers (www.google.com). Right after their own site! But Mr Chicken (unless you are a Ms of course), its McDonalds, not MacDonalds. You don't appear to rate as high when you spell it correctly... or was that deliberate on your part? |

| 511119 | 2007-01-02 08:41:00 | And, why not buy a 767 as a private jet. Probably a steal if its one of the early models. | dolby digital (5073) | ||
| 511120 | 2007-01-02 18:52:00 | Just confusion on my part. I just eat 'em I don't read 'em :) Still #3 for mcdonalds burgers (www.google.com) isn't too bad either.

I make it #10 from your supplied link, but thats still pretty damn good. I can see why you don't wish to give it up (do McDonalds protect MacDonalds, maybe you could get around it that way. Disclaimer. In no way do I know what I am talking about... with things legal) |

| 511122 | 2007-01-03 01:16:00 | Dolby we must have different google datacenters. (info here www.mcdar.net) The results vary depending on which one you connect to. The link on my machine now gives me #4 :) Here are a list of 17 datacenters,(there ar emore I gather) www.webrankinfo.com when you type in the terms above, it shows that from 17 I am at #10!! (God knows whats happening, it still shows #4 on my machine :) ) I guess I am using one optimised for my ego. NEW!! From Google, ego optimised data centers!! be famous on your own computer! |
