I came across this funny little testimonial in Google about how Google helped them to find their lost tortoise in their house. I use Google for every search as it has become the ultimate search engine. Sometimes back, to have some leisure time at work, the corporate HR sent a mail with a list of 10 questions and at the bottom saying ‘Lucky winners get an iPod’. The moment it came, unanimously everybody opened Google and started searching for the answer. But next time when we had an account level fun day, we made sure nobody opened Google to search for the answer.

But here is the story of Lost Tortoise as told by Jim Lyness,

“After Christmas, my son Sam wanted a turtle. We bought a Russian Tortoise instead and named him Rocky. Well, one day, we let Rocky out for a stroll around the house. We could not find him that night and into the afternoon the following day. After the boys went to school, my wife, Susan, and I were stumped. Did Rocky get out the front door? My wife told me I was crazy. Susan googled [how to find a Russian Tortoise] and bang — we had a game plan. Russian Tortoises like warm, dark spaces. We started in the boys’ bedroom, again. We pulled the bunk bed back and there was Rocky at the head of the bed. Case solved. When we tell friends and family about googling How to Find a Russian Tortoise, they bust a gut in laughter!”
