Gosh are they still there? They were certainly around in 1966 when I trained as a waiter at Le Grand Hotel, as it was then! In Africa they're bigger and called rats! Thanks for your great blog!

Guillaume,
You'll find that you're ranking for that phrase simply because the post is new.
Google will push new, fresh content that matches artificially into the index when it gets published - so that new and breaking news is visible.
In the coming day(s), I'd expect that post to slide down the rankings to wherever it'll sit on its own merits.
Al.

Al, where did you read that blog posts will disappear from the rankings because it's just news?
Look at Google UK now, the post is '3 ahead of the original 'mice' post. I really do think people undervalue the power of blogs in the search engine results.
