I need to figure out what I'm doing wrong.

I have never been able to successfully do a "Google custom search" in the little window on the upper right of the HBA screen. I put in words that I KNOW **** well are in a thread or post, and I don't get a search result with that word. I get a bunch of advertisements that have similar words but not what I'm looking for.

So I always fell back on using a Google "site search", where I would put in mignet site:homebuiltairplanes.com and it would do a Google search where I would come up with the threads that contain the word mignet.

That used to work well enough, but today it didn't. I wanted to look at Fritz' little Piojo flea rendering, so tried to put in a Google search for piojo site:homebuiltairplanes.com and it returned ZERO results in Google. I know that there are hundreds of forum posts and images with the word piojo in them.

Can any of you smart people explain this, or FIX these problems?
