So I am reading through the CNN website as I do daily and I click on a link about an 11 year old child that gets angry and steals the family cars to go for a 200 mile drive.

You are probably asking yourself at this point why I bring this up in the humor section of the site because it really isn't that funny...

Well as I was reading I noticed the advertising links on the right hand column of the page. The advertising is customized for each story. If the story were about food, there would be restaurants in the advertisers section, an article about cars will get your dealer ads. Keywords in the article cue up different advertisers.

The funny part about this was the ads that somehow got linked to the article I just mentioned:
