Google Firewall problem

FireGoogle

Hihi, I talked about the GooglePlex a few months ago. Seems like the guys had a bit to much of spare time as they created a fire during a BBQ.

This picture was posted on Twitter before the firefighters even got the chance to arrive on the site. I just love the fast spreading technologies. The fire didn’t do huge damage to the building, but I guess they earned it. Who the hell is barbecuing on a Thursday afternoon anyway, shouldn’t they be in the Fitness center, the swimming pool or pool hall?

Maybe it’s just jealousy and I seriously hope nobody was injured, but they deserved it. hi hi.

I checked everybody in my office and they all seem to have a valid alibi. :-)

The birds would be singing in the trees, the cows slowly graze the green fields around the complex. Ah life is beautiful.
