Scottish Elises

just for a bit of fun...

Following on from the 'scum' thread about posting stuff online and it haunting you, I reminded me of a slow day we had in the office and we all googled each others names etc...

I am...

1. Writer, pop culture whore. Editor at This is my next, formerly of Joystiq and Engadget

2. American politician of the Democratic Party and the current Secretary of State of Nevada

3. An electrical engineering graduate of Edinburgh University (2008) and rugby player

4. I have also been "a movie fan ever since he can remember. He is a fan of all types of cinema from drama to action, comedy to western, thriller to sci-fi and almost everything else in between (although he has a general dislike for most musicals and romantic comedies). He cites some of his favorite movies as Pulp Fiction, The Big Lebowski, Psycho and Mulholland Drive but finds himself annoyingly garnering new favorites almost every other week. His favorite directors include David Lynch, Quentin Tarantino and Alfred Hitchcock. He describes himself as a writer and a fan, a fan and a writer - but not always in that order."

5. A renowned Montana cyberspy

Pretty boring really...

Do any of you have any interesting namesakes on the internet? Remember, dont post your full name unless you want it to appear on the list the next time you run the search! (or your potential future employer does)

I appears I am mostly my Dad.

And a dead motorcyclist.

I'm me & another me also in the railway. There's also an irish me who makes green coffins.

The scary bit is that when I google my name it comes up with links to Jon McArdle (thankfully it's a different me & a different vxJon) but I found that quite spooky!

Good thread

I am:

1. In Seahouses, mostly wearing flouro-green mankinis on the beach

2. In Australia, mostly photographing ladeez in bikinis on the beach


I think one cancels the other out...

Well I thought there could not be many of me, but was wrong! Last time I did this was about 10 years ago, and I was the top five or so on Google, for my motor sport exploits. Not any longer

1. Me!
2. Some random imposter
3. The head of IT at Zodiac Media
4. Some Yank Stoodent on FB
5. Me on FB (thankfully privacy settings set to the max)
6. The bass player in some rock/indie band
7. Me again on a business networking site.

My FB avatar (same as on here) comes up on the first page of a google image search.

1. Me
2. Some guy who was executed in 1898
3. Some american teacher who is teaching in the Himalayas

Alright for you guys.

I'm a gay porn star or a baldy annoying politician.

Mostly me, but I also died in March aged 81 leaving a wife called 'Manie' and 3 kids.

Last time I checked a couple of years ago I found out I had won a competition for a weekend offroading (real me had actually won it but too late to claim)

Apparently I'm a marine biologist and film maker...

ahem..

For the first three pages of google.co.uk I am me

Me
A lawyer at Harper Macleod

3: Tutor in Homiletics (it's not anything dirty, I checked) at a theological college
4: Stuntman (Aliens, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Superman)
5. Some hippy, druid, new-agey type down in Glastonbury
