    Check this out its hilarious....

    Try this very soon, before someone forces Google to fix its site:

    1) Go to www.Google.com <http://www.Google.com>

    2) Type in weapons of mass destruction (DON'T hit return)

    3) Hit the "I'm feeling lucky" button, NOT the "Google search"

    4) Read the "error message" carefully. The WHOLE page.

    Someone at Google really has a sense of humour. And will probably be fired soon!!!

    thats brilliant!!!!

    the reason that this works is due to a very complex process involving matrices and the number of links to the page.

    also try

    french military victories

    and

    miserable failure

    Did you mean: french military defeats

    No standard web pages containing all your search terms were found.

    Your search - french military victories - did not match any documents.

    lol nice one sikes:D

    I think google rank their pages based on the amount of hits.
    Obviously these pages have been hit more than the other results,
    so they appear at the top.
    Nothing to do with google methinks..
    Very funny though :D

    as i explained before it is to do with the amount of times the page is linked to from other web sites using matrices.
