For those of you who don’t know, I have a strange and borderline obsessive fixation with the tech monster that is Google. Now, I can go on and on about my love for all things Googly (let’s not even get into the wonderful world of GChatting), but today I will leave you with just one of the reason I love Google:
Google is funny!!!
Every year Google pulls an April Fool’s joke on their faithful followers. I am pretty sure this year it is their great custom time option.

[check out the testimonials--see! funny!]
Someone else also sent me a link to another potential Google April Fool’s prank. (An application for people to apply for a position to be sent to Mars by Google and Virgin [cleverly titled Virgle].) http://www.google.com/virgle/application.htmlvirgle_assessment
Of course I completed the application just to see what humorous things Google comes up with...lo and behold I found an entirely new reason to love Google...Google can predict the future! (yeah so what if I found another reason to sneak my love for Google in...it’s my post.) Once I clicked submit, I received the following results:
Well, you’re distressingly normal and could conceivably adjust to life as a deep space pioneer, though we recommend instead that you leave the Mars missions to the serious whack jobs who scored over 130 and instead finish year 3 of law school, tuck your toddler into bed, design Web 2.0 applications, run for Congress or do whatever other normal, healthy, middle-of-the-road thing you’re currently doing with your normal, healthy, middle-of-the-road life. If you’re determined to give Virgle a try, though, you can submit your video here.
Yeah almost all of it doesn’t apply to me-- but the "finish year 3 of law school" does and THAT, my friends, is why Google is amazing!
