a poem by my computer, Macintosh Vigilante
Macintosh amends a damned around the requested typewriter. Macintosh urges a scarce design. Macintosh postulates an autobiography. Macintosh tolls the solo variant. Why does a winter audience delay macintosh? The maker tosses macintosh. Beneath female suffers a double scum. How will a rat cube the heavier cricket? Macintosh calls a method. Can macintosh nest opposite the headache? Macintosh ties the wrong fairy. When can macintosh stem the land gang? Female aborts underneath macintosh. Inside macintosh waffles female. Next to macintosh worries a well.

WTF that's insane. What possible motivation is behind putting oil spill images behind the adult filter?

I'm glad everyone uses Google.

I turned safe search off and it still won't show any images of the spill.

edit: I think it may just be a shitty search algorithm. "oil bp spill" gives you plenty of images, even with safe search on.

A clever little prank.

I didn't know about the homograph phishing exploit, this is a good way to demonstrate it to people.
