I'm not trying to use HTTP, the "www.google.com" was just a URL I knew
would be able to respond.  Turns out that if I replace the
"www.google.com" with it's IP "74.125.53.105" then it works.  Don't
know why.

I would like to get 2 android simulators talking so I can test 2 way
communications with data.  I haven't found out how to get 2 simulators
up yet either.
