Do I Really Know Anything About These Search Engines?

Not a day went by after my first post about my page rankings when, low and behold, I could no longer find myself on Google. I scratched my head. What did I do wrong? It was only after deep, deep digging that I found myself ranked 162 and 181 for the search terms wine t shirt and wine t shirts, respectively.

I'm not sure what I did wrong that my rankings dropped over a hundred spots from one day to the next. I'd love to know, so if anyone out there has a clue, please post a response. What I found most fascinating is that the majority, I'd guess 90%, of the sites ranked above me have nothing or little to do with wine t shirts. I don't know about you, but if I was looking for a wine t shirt, I'd hate to have to go through 20 pages before I found the most relevant result and what I was looking for. They say that the current algorithms that Google uses are the most democratic. But in my opinion, something is wrong with there system. If 90% of the sites above my were wine t shirt related, then I would say it's an issue of improving my SEO.
