The dark side of "Googling" yourself

I should begin by saying that I used to be a Yahoo guy. For some reason I just always used Yahoo as my search engine. However, since our President referred to using "the Google" I have been converted. Google.com is great.

One thing I like to do is "Google" myself. If you don't know, that is where you search the internet for your own name. Usually it is fun to see if there is anything out there about you. It turns out that there are a lot of people that share my name.

My namesakes have a number of interesting professions. I am a real estate agent in Burbank, California, a famous author in Canada, a coach at an Ivy League school and a bee keeper in Wisconsin. All fun, wholesome run of the mill kind of stuff.
That is until my most recent search. The last time I "Googled" myself I had a new Career...

Gay Porn Star.

I found this amusing and shocking. The shocking part is that I do not have a name the easy lends itself to the adult film industry. It isn't Harry Steele, William West or something along those lines. It is just a regular name.

When did porn stars start using regular names?

I thought part of the fun in becoming a porn star was to get a new name and persona. Of course it could be that it is someone I pissed off and they are trying to get even with me. Although I think I would remember making someone so angry that they would become a Gay Porn Star to get even with me.

Regardless, I proudly accept my new Namesake into the group. I add yet another occupation to the bizarre list of things my brethren do for a living. I wish him the best in all his endeavors and I hope that he is the best Gay Porn star that he can be.

For my sake I hope anyone I went to school with will realize that he and I are not the same person. Anyone who knows me will remember that if I ever became a Porn Star my name would be...
