Google "finland time zone". Click on the first link [Wikipedia article].
Recognize the language? Thought not. It's Somali. Isn't that bizarre? Somalia doesn't even have an operational national domain and it has a Wiki article for Finland.
And why the blue buffalo Google chose to display the Somali page as the most relevant search is one of those ineffable ineffabilities of life.
But there is at least a possible explaination. The Somali page is the only page I could find that didn't have the info bar in the language of the page. So the Basque page says "Ordu Eremua" instead of "Time Zone."

"So abundant and novel are the objects of interest in a PURE WILDERNESS that unless you are pursuing special studies it matters little where you go, or how often to the same place. Wherever you chance to be always seems at the moment of all places the best; and you feel that there can be no happiness in this world or in any other for those who may not be happy here."

What I want to know is why you googled "finland time zone." I doubt I've ever googled that.
That is something I would very much like to know too
Well, I suppose it's not like "Laplander penguin" or "enormous jerusalem artichoke fields." Those might be stranger.
Speaking of googling Finland, have you ever googled "halonen o'brien" in Google images?
wow, a laplander penguin. definitely stranger than enormous jerusalem artichoke fields.
and wow. All I have to say is wow. Everybody needs to google halonen o'brien. Wow.
It's conceivable that an Antarctic explorer from the plains of northern scandanavia kidnapped a penguin and cultivated them at home. But not likely.
