 A popular search engine is www.google.com (recommended by Time magazine
I seem to recall).  Enter "Waltzing Matilda" as a search term into the
search engine and the Roger Clarke "Waltzing Matilda" page is first on
the list. !

 Click on "I'm feeling lucky" instead of "Search" and one is taken
directly to the Roger Clarke "Waltzing Matilda" page !

 This might explain it :-)
