ok I am on the 192 page (off the first google page), though even on there, there is another person with the same middle inital who live locally before me.... very common indeed.

Nothing on google images.. though someone (NOT ME!)
"can proudly tell the world he owns a patent for "a chip-controlled piezoelectric sound transducer which plays a melody or voiced message when during intercourse the contacts of the sound-playing unit are closed and the transducer is activated." It's all about free love—you can record whatever music or sound you want, be it "Danger Zone" or "Thriller."

I'm a US senator.

My maiden name brings up more of 'me' - my blog, credit listings for the games I've worked on, etc.

Hey Cougar just quoting wiki. 🙂

Though further wiki work reveals that there was a New York Giants baseball franchise though they moved to San Fransico after 1957 season, similarly Brooklyn Dodgers moved to LA at the same time.

As far as I'm concerned my name is the best for googling as far as the world of biking goes. I invented the best bearing system for hubs which has been copied the world over. Unfortunately I also died recently. Also unfortunately I cannot afford any of my own products with my name on.

I was found dead two years ago in a north american river. At the time of my tragic death I was ten years older than I am now. Despite this setback, I also appear to be pursuing a career as a nuclear physicist.

I have same name as a very famous and rather handsome young surfer. (I once had a facebook friend request from a young and sadly mistaken American surf-betty.) Also the keyboard player from 'Grand Drive', and the legendary motormouthed horse racing man on BBC. One of the first people I ever looked after as a young care assistant was a semi-reformed gambling addict: he didn't find my name at all funny.

Bloody Americans and their fool names. You'd never catch us doing that.

Erm.

Apparently I'm a famous photographer, an English Hockey player and I'm the six times mountain running champion.

Actually I appear more on google than anyone else with my name which is nice.

This is my favourite image of me on the images page.

I install gas boilers in Wallasey (which is actually not far from where I was born)
The real me doesn't appear on at least the first 3 pages, in images I'm not sure I remember growing a beard and putting on 10 stone!
My wife however died in 1710 and it seems she was having an affair at the time as some other man (not me) is mentioned and images also brings up a picture of her headstone
At least that's the lack of bedroom activity explained... And her smell 😉

I used to be much harder to find on Google, because my great (great?) uncle devised a form of chiropractry so there just used to be loads of results for chiropractors called Mike.

My name pops up in a BMBO report at the bottom of page 2 and quote "a name to watch in the future"!. Nothing on the first page.

I'm a failed and quite honestly appalling popster who didn't quite make it into Girls aloud. I still appear to be trying to break the Market, albeit badly. Very badly.

Wow, I just googled again for another look. Apparently I am also a jail guard who did naughty things with an 'evil' inmate! Blimey.

My names so common it's not worth even trying to find a mention on about the first 200 pages!

Though surprisingly I'm on the first page of images as a picture from my FlickR of one of my cameras is used as an example on camera-wiki 😉

I'm a flute maker, a cinematographer, and ex-Conservative MP of Leigh.

No wonder I'm so tired.

I am a sword maker in Edinburgh, funny thing is I actually know the chap, haven't seen him for 20 years, he used to call into my mums house for a cup of tea on a Saturday morning after riding from Glenuig to Fort William on his honda c90, that had a leopard skin seat cover and he had a fox tail stuck on to the rear of his helmet!

Apparently for the 2011 season I'll be driving a 760bhp Benetton B199 F1 car in the new BOSS GP series.

Last season I won the championship, with 7 pole positions & victory in half of the races. I also broke an unprecedented 5 Outright Lap Records on my way to the title, achievements that lead to nominations for numerous prestigious awards. Better year than I remember!!
