Q: Safari delay on google searches

I am having a strange problem with Safari. Here are the symptoms:

 

I open a new tab in Safari and type in a search term, for example, "Apple Support" (this actually just happened for me. Nothing will happen for maybe a minute and then I get the "Safari CAn't Open the Page" error.

 

If I hit Refresh, the results pop up instantaneously.

 

This happens for maybe 1 in 5 searches.

 

In addition, if I right click on some search results and select "Open in New Tab" about 1 in 5 times the same thing will happen in the newly opened tab. If I right click on 4 links, the problem will occur in the 4 newly opened tabs. Wait until the load fails, and then Reload and it works.

 

In my Network Preferences for DNS I have 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and for Search Domains I have attlocal.net.

 

Very odd behavior. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
