Yes I enjoy exposing myself on the internet.

Googling my real name yields results of everyone in the world with my name - except me.

And I intend to keep it that way insofar as humanly possible.

Most (all?) of the links for me come up with my posts about computer programming etc.  No biggie.
Surprised to see others with the same name as me, however!

If my username isn't enough....

Google search doesn't produce anything damning, so I don't mind. All y'all are benevolent enough, so I doubt me saying my name is Andy Webb is going to hurt anyone. There are plenty of Andy Webbs out there.

I don't think I am.

It takes you awhile while searching my name to find anything that has to do with me, mostly stuff from Bad News Bears.

Not even my writings show up for awhile which is saddening. I guess they do with my pen name.

I haven't used my name on the net since 1995, but I'm surprised that googling my name still brings up my name from before that (from about 1993 to '95).
At that time it was just a curiosity and nobody really took the net very seriously.
Bloody annoying!

I'm actively trying to displace another guy with my name (who writes tech support articles) from my google results, so I guess that means I'm not worried about it. Big smile

There's this lawyer who has same last and first name that shows up but he spells Lindsey with an a.  I would attempt to sue him, but you know, he's the lawyer. Tongue

I'm the handsome one.

We were pretty terrible during that age.
