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!

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?!?

I'm a fifteen year old exchange student who plays the piano but never sings at school concerts, I play polo in Scotland and write travel articles for a dreadful online magazine based in America. I am enormously fat, I have a mullet and am married to a man named Kristopher. Wow, who knew my life was so filled with mundanity.

I'm a professional angler and promoter.
Further I'm a photographer.
But most importantly, I'm a former christian rock star, but according to one web site, on "July 28, 1982, there was a small plane crash and went home to Jesus." I'm collecting my old CDs with plans of signing them and selling them at a prophet.

Yup, there's only one me too, CK. Although some sort of gastroenterologist in Norway seems to have had my name as her *maiden* name - my Norwegian isn't quite up to the task of determining what that page is about!

I have my own dance studio in Bridgeport, Michigan. I was interviewed regarding an artist's accomplishments. I co-authored a review of appellate law developments in Michigan. I am a member of the MSU President's Club.
Overall, quite boring. Except for the dance studio part.

I knew it!Was that wind instruments in general, or tuba in particular, naunt? I can certainly visualise nuncular playing the tuba. A certain sense of "everything's right in the world" indeed.

Not much exciting if I google my everyday name. I find that I am a living descendent of Caspar Engels (who's he?), I graduated from Wagner High school Class of '66 (my I'm precocious!)and I'm mentioned in this e-mail header: Acid Jazz Archive: Fwd: Fwd: FW: Disney's Challenge (Microsoft's E-mail tracing program)
My own real self doesn't google up.
