I broke the land and water speed records several times before becoming a knight.
Then I gave birth to my grandfather who did the same exact thing.

The first time someone asked if I had ever Googled myself I politely told them it was none of their business.
Then they explained what Googling oneself really is.
Oh . . .
I haven't Googled myself in a while so I decided to do so this morning.
Wow! What a rush.
1,580,000 hits in .20 seconds.
Not all of them are me but so what? The first 7 listings on page one of Google were me.
I have no idea what, if anything, any of this means but it's a great way to end the week.
Give it a try. Google yourself. No one is looking and no one has to know what you are doing.

That's new. Wasn't there this AM.
See what can happen when you have nothing better to do than Googling yourself?

I googled myself (Paris Hilton) as well, 47 million hits. Also a great way to end the week.

Man, Googling myself is weird. I'm a New York Senator, a Libertarian Parliamentary candidate, a college football player, a dead bowler, and was intimately involved in the 1980 lottery scandal.

You might get better results if you use quotes around your name. For example:
"Alston J. Balkcom"

I never knew Paris Hilton was a member of the forum. Can Nicole Ritchie be far behind?

I'm a photographer, death row inmate, I've won the Graham Williamson Award (whatever that is), I'm an assistant state attorney and my personal favorite:
A priest who was being sued for claiming the deceased person at this particular funeral was going to hell.

The Graham Williamson award is for men who love goats.
Sorry to hear you are on death row. Maybe you can get the priest to help.

You need not be green with envy. Half of those hits were from his own association members.

Dave, did Frank provide you with that detailed sketch of the anatomy of a goat?
