(Note: its long but it does lead to point)
Last night, I was about to go to bed after drinking a bottle of wine. But first... I get an Instant Message:

Profsite: hang on let me send you
Profsite: Have a look on some of lates results
At this point he sends me an incoherent excel sheet marked Nov. 2007 that shows one of his websites ranking in the top 20 for useless keywords:
