At least in the middle of a Boston winter you get something to fantasize about.

Speaking of Google weirdness...

Background: I live in the Jamaica Plain neighborhood of Boston. It's
recognized by the post office as "Jamaica Plain" even though it's part
of the city of Boston rather than a distinct city/town/village.

Anyway, if you ever browse through Google News you'll find the home
page customizes itself for you based on your location - I assume it
gets your IP address and looks up what city you're in -  and gives you
a little sidebar of local news. Only whenever I access Google News
from home it shows me local news for... Jamaica. Yes, the island of
Jamaica in the Carribean. :-)

Don't lose heart!  They might want to cut it out, and they'll want to avoid a 
lengthily search.
