Speaking of flash.....

This is bizarre. I was searching on the term list: Australian book 
import restrictions
The subsets with 'wonder wheel' are:
weather sydney
australian writers
australian car import laws
australian food import restrictions
australian car import rules
parallel import [that one's relevant]
the sydney morning herald [huh?]
and
peter garrett!

The sydney one was just too bizarre and when I clicked on it, no clue 
as to why it's there. Then I clicked garrett, and one of his related 
links is Penny Wong. What??

Related searches is more useful.
