A funny from former Dogstarrian Karen:

1. Go to www.google.com
2. Click on "maps"
3. Click on "get directions"
4. Type "New York" in the first box (the "from" box)
5. Type "London" in the second box (the "to" box)
6. Scroll down to step #21....

Makes perfect sense, except for the "enter France" portion .....

I'm just mad because you can't make people swim across the Pacific, just the Atlantic.

'S cause the sharks'll gettem if you try to swim the Pacific.
No, really.

You just gotta give it a little longer and let the Mid-Atlantic Rift push it closed enough to make it convenient.

LOL

I went to Google and was wondering where the maps were, but then I don't think google.com.ph has the link (or I was just too impatient to wait for it to load) :-p

I took a look - if you switch to English then click on the 'Scholar' link, the map link is there.

Or just use plain www.google.com, and it's above the entry field.

I guess they haven't translated the map's responses into all their other languages yet, or maybe they just don't have the data for reliable local responses in other countries. Sounds kinda feeble when you say it out loud....
