So, as long as I’m putting up oddities, here’s another, suggested by an “avid” reader:

“Why, when I google “White Flint 2010″ do I come up with ads for Armageddon?”

Um, . . . what?

I tried it myself, and got these as the first three Google ads (note: the FLOG doesn’t run ads; these came from the google search itself):

So I played around with the search query, and found that it isn’t White Flint that triggers “massive destruction.” It’s the inclusion of the year 2010. Um . . . OK, “For some, Yes.” I guess.
