Chances are it is an advertisement geared to you. I see ads of local businesses everywhere on the net.

it's a google ad. Each one of us gets a different ad in that spot. Google tracks where you are, what you are doing on the web and decides how to personalize the add you are going to see.

the scary part is that they know more about you than your wife!

p.s. and no, I am not kidding! Target for example knows when a woman is pregnant before she does. They use the changes in shopping preferences to figure it out.

I hope that you are not suggesting to Scobey that his wife is pregnant and he doesn't know it.

Yup, Google.

For example, if you want to buy some auto parts in Advanced Part Warehouse, go to their web site, look around a bit, come back to this web site and you will see an ad for Advance PW there 99% sure :)

That is how I was buying parts for the last 2-3 years :)
