Somehow I guessed this article was written by a Brit, even before I noticed the £ sign over to the side. Cute!
Self-Googling, however, makes us realise that it’s not intra-faith disputes and sexual desire that makes the world go round, but long-standing petty rivalries between C-list journalists, scientists and academics. This could be key in long-term projects such as world peace: instead of UN resolutions and birth control, perhaps all of humanity just needs to go away together for a paint-balling and team-building weekend in Cheshire. Then we could all write reports about it and put them on the Net, along with flattering pictures...

FWIW, I've googled wwftd.

Apparently I own a Financial Planning business, have starred in a couple of dodgy pornos, and have been involved with a few medical student functions. Well, at least one of those is true.

There are so many varied Alex Williamses that we should have a club. It would be such fun. I picture every member introducing him or herself: "Hello, my name is Alex WIlliams..."

Here's my favorite self-google, an essay titled Don't Execute Alex Williams, http://www.nodeathpenalty.org/newab017/alexWilliams.html. Other interesting alter-egos include a Coast Guard captain, an artist, and a porn star.

i am older than i thought, there is news of my 80th birthday celebration, but that i have written 5 plays is nice news, but two husbands? Oliver and Phil?
i am inclined to think the only woman who is looking for a husband is one who never had one! Two isn't one too many, its two too many!

'S'all right, Anna--depends on one's circs, I guess.

Yes, Alex, I would also prefer that you not be executed...

You were looking for a husband? gee never thought that... mind you, there is nothing wrong with having a husband, or even aquiring a new one, its the idea of actually going out and looking for one that i don't understand!

husbands are like stray cats or dogs, they come into our lives, and we put up with them, and then learn to love them, . but go out and look for one?!?
