Truth in advertising?

Google ads: 'How to Make Electricity' and 'Prepare to be Shocked'

I came across the above Google ads on Snopes today. If you don't understand why I was amused, just read the ad headlines.

It reminds me of a Frank and Ernest cartoon I like to include on electronics tests.

I can not see them either so I am also curious.

I cannot see any, probably because I have adblockplus installed. Kudos to Firefox and adblockplus: finally we can live an "ad-free" life :)

I loved this piece! The cartoon is a fabulous - and it definitely highlights the humor in the Google ad. XOXO Lauren
