Out on the internet

I was a little freaked out —-

Today I received a PM from someone on the Betterman site about where I bought my Max Extender. Well I forgot where I bought it so I thought I would go to the internet and do a search on Yahoo using Max Extender.

Well Holy Shit !!! The very first search result— did I say very FIRST search result is MY OWN original thread. I was totally shocked to see that. I was just starting to get used to doing the thread thing and it NEVER crossed my mind that my words would be out on the internet. I dunno, I thought every one of the stupid things I have written about would stay here amongst my 10348 closest friends.

Anyway I am freaked.

Capt as you can tell I was being a little sarcastic but it was interesting to say the least to see your own pen name “up in lights” in the first spot of the search engines.

You all are still missing the point... The story was great and all but should have ass (and) some anal in it.- RWG

No big deal really. I just went to google.com, typed in my user name and came up with 61 matches.

Google bots are all over thunders, and the Internet the more popular the site the more bots and the more bots the more it comes up in a search

Yea, I did a seach on Google. I found a bunch of YGuy’s, but only 2 of them were actually me. One post from Betterman, and another post here at Thunders, from 2001.

The odds of me popping up on the first couple of hundred pages of google are pretty slim! Its good to have an inconspicuous user name

Apparently, according to Google, I’m either an engine parts package, or one of a multiple array of sex toys.

Yea, found out that I was a Ford Falcon

falcon, the Ford Falcon is our main Ford over here in Australia (sedan, utility and stationwagon), and there is also the Ford Falcon XR6 XR8 (Tickford racing models).

It’s no wonder why this would hog the top search result.

Loved going to Cuba! :)

I'm surprised that Americans can't go because their government says they can't!
