Google Yourself

Hello 301,

After googling myself, the first thing that came up was a link to uwbadgers.com referencing my roster, position, player facts and stats. For 8 'o's in google after that, (which represent the number of pages that have information pertaining to the words you look up, with there being about 10 links per page) there were links that were actually about me, mostly involving hockey. After these 8 pages of about 1,030 results, there were links to my family members, other hockey players, and other items. There was one website that did strike me as odd, and it was http://www.jerk.com/profile.php?id=81729431. This website is Jerk.com, and I don't know how I got on there, but it rates you as being a saint or a jerk. Currently, I am 100% saint, which could be because the profile picture they have for me, which was taken without my permission from Facebook a while ago, is me and my brother with my cousin who just gave birth to her son. I look like I am five and I am holding the baby, so it might make me look less jerky? I really don't know. I also clicked the image tab on Google to see what images they had of me. I believe that Google takes pictures from the websites that your name is mentioned, which is why there were many pictures of me and other hockey players I knew on this page. There were a few pornographic pictures of other girls, who must have been named Carla, but I guess that if out of the 169 results, only about three were porn, the odds are pretty good, and not as bad as the 83.5 percent statistic that Marty Rimm from Carnegie Mellon supposedly found.
