why is everyone wasting their time on swine flu?

My sister recently sent me this link to a new zealand news story, filed under "World Breaking News": http://www.news.com.au/story/0,27574,25426069-23109,00.html

Unfortunately they didn't supply a picture of this amazing fruit, but a quick search of the interwebs saved the day:I was expecting something a little less like a moldy pear and more like a kiwi bird. Still, I guess it's sort of newsworthy that someone spent $680 canadian on this thing. This just in... man wastes money on old piece of fruit.

In other news, I love the calculating function on google. I just typed in "1000 NZD in canadian dollars" and it did the conversion for me. It's also handy for mile-km, lbs-kg conversions. And it does math computations too. Is there anything google can't do?

Even shorter, try: 1000AUD=?CAD or 70kg=?lb. The list goes on...
Google rocks!

Oooh, saving valuable seconds. Pretty soon google is going to be able to read your mind and show you what you want to know before you type anything.
