Now how did they figure out it would take 29 days to swim across the ocean?
Another fun one is to go to http://moon.google.com/ and zoom in as much as you can. :)
What I find curious is that someone working for Google had to write the program that came up with this clever response, knowing full well it would only be seen by some moron (Greg) requesting ridiculous directions. Seriously, isn't this kind of curious? Should I feel bad for that programmer? Or bad for Greg? Or bad for me?
Other great google fun:
