    What is the weirdest thing that comes up when you Google your name?

    My name turns up the name of a porn star in a porno movie. ::)

    I'm, apparently, a policitician in Connecticut, and an author of a Jazz History book.

    I'm Idaho!

    Actually, I'm this according to the first line of a Google image search ...

  5. I share my name with a Californian politician, some sort of freaky looking Pokemon character, a guy who likes to post on every carbureator website known to man and a boy who went missing at 12 years old.

    I'm just myself -- unique name.

    Occasionally I'll do a search for "(my name)" + "idiot" (or other such terms) to see which blogs are ripping me.

    I Google image-searched myself once. The second image was...and I'm not kidding here...a horse from the back end.

    I never did it again.

    The Google shows that I once attended a board of commissioners meeting in Scott County, Minn.; that I finished second in the 15-year-old age group in a 5K run in New Jersey.; and I am the son of a youth minister in Maryland.

    Other people with my name reek of fail. :'(

    And you don't exactly have the most common name. I'm amazed there's more than one of you.

    When I google myself, I only get stuff about me. The most bizarre thing is the family tree site that lists me as having married my stepfather . . . when I was 2!

    And if you do an image search on my brother, a bunch of drunk pictures of him and the groomsman pop up :D

    Apparently, I am both a Virginia lawyer and ... a high-ranking IRS official.

    Either way, everybody better be nice.

    Apparently, some fine officers in Texas are looking for me & want to ask some questions about why a few dozen people are missing...
