I'm going for the one with NO POLLS! :P

J/K; My homepage is Google (mainly because there are not a lot of advertisements so it doesn't take long to load).

Once you go Google, it's hard to go back!

It's funny you mention that! Actually one of my most life-changing experiences is because of Google.

I have a different biological dad than my 2 sisters. All I had to go on was a first and last name and general geographical data. Within 3 hours of various searches on Google I was able to figure out more about him. Unfortunately, he died when I was 18 months old, but that explains a lot about why he never tried to find me over the years.

Google, because I like saying "I googled it" when someone asks me how I found it. :lol: But I've never googled myself. :o

I broke down and googled myself, twice. Once using Larry and my lsat name (71 hits), once using Lawrence and my last name (113 hits). None of them are me and many are in a foreign language, I'm assuming it's Portuguese since I have a Portuguese last name. But someone with my name did get picked in the major league baseball draft this year.

It is sad, but it was a huge closure moment for me.
