Seems whoever does their website did the wrong thing, check out the link here, http://www.livejournal.com/users/dirigibles/75781.html
and then go to Fuddruckers website and click on the fuddruckers tab to get to the desired page.

monster,

Something very strange is going on. I have attempted to view the fuddrucker's page from two different computers and I am redirected to www.google.com

OK, I guess it is not just my computers. I did a quick serch on www.slashdot.org figuring they would have something about it, and they did. I found this posted there:

Ohhhh, you missed it, I guess the webmaster, or someone else, finally got wind of this and either couldn't or didn't know how to make a simple change to the page, and pointed the whole site to Google instead, the domains records point to Google.
What a frellin moran(sic).
If you want to know what was happening, go to the first link I provided in my initial post and read the page, or click here, http://www.livejournal.com/users/dirigibles/75781.html

Even using Mozilla with pop-ups blocked I had several of the web pages pop up, it was great.



between eating an everything bagel with cream cheese and Smoked Alaskan Salmon, and then realizing I need to go recycle plastics (I was just there yesterday, put keep forgetting a big bin of plastics) before the center closes in a few minutes, it's taken me over an hour to write this post.

hahaha, I just read /., those guys are too funny.
It turns out now, that people that are trying to go to the Fuddruckers site, and instead find themselves at Google, are of course typing Fuddruckers into the search field and ending up at http://www.usfoodpolicy.blogspot.com/

His blog says it's been changed. What I read though was great!
