When I Google my real name, a famous record producer has the most listings by far, followed by a mathematician. I am neither of those people.
Post by: nico on June 12, 2008, 08:04:22 AM
When I google my sn on other sites, my profile on MDshooters is the 3rd link down, but there are a ton of other listings that aren't me.
(I'm not very original with screen names)
When I google my real name, a paper I co-authored in undergrad is about halfway down the page. The other links are a guy working on his masters in Oregon, and a guy who makes electronic music.

Of Course not.. and If I was I wouldn't admit to it.. that is the same as admiting your related to fistful...

Post by: Tallpine on June 13, 2008, 11:44:58 AM
He might as well be "El Cascade" or "El Nevada" There is a story about a guy who came from back east to visit for a while, and said something about "Tee-john" Street.
A local informed him that it was a Spanish name, and out west a J was pronounced like an H - "Tay-hone". Then he asked how long the visitor was going to stay?
"Oh, a just a couple months," the dude replied, "through Hoon and Hoo-lie."
An alternate version is: "the hackrabbit humped into the huniper bush"

Now I use different emails for work stuff and always wonder if my footprint is responsible for some of my bad luck.
Fortunately, my given name isn't that associated with my main email and also my given name is all over the net by billions.

An attorney in Atlanta, GA (not me)
A doctor in Anchorage, AK (not me)
An HR manager for a company in IN. (not me)

A review of a Japanese restaurant by me
A high school alumni that isn't me
And on and on and on.
There are a few ham radio related entries in Colorado about me that are quite old.
I'm surprised at the number of entries, actually, given that my last name is not all that common.

Googling the screen name is more...interesting as it brings up images of cute fuzzy kittens, Daleks, Captain America and for some odd reason a pink bidet.
None of which I've posted up on the net.

Well, better that your screen name comes up with that than your real name. I mean if my name came up with a picture of a Captain America on a pink bidet protecting a cute fuzzy kitten from a Dalek, I don't know if I could live with myself.

A writer
A school Principal
A guidance counselor
A long-distance runner
A Rosy the Riveter type person of the 1940s
An actress of the 1920s
A deceased Virginian
Yes, they are all me and I had a good life before I wound up six feet under in Mudlick Cemetary with decent internet access.
