This Is Not News

So every so often I do a Google search on my name, just to see if stuff from Not News has popped up in unexpected places. (At this point it’s amazing how often my name is attached to various message boards, ratings polls, and so on, but anyway.) On a recent search, I found a blog post that mentioned me in connection with a comic book discussion forum I moderated back when I was in high school. Besides finding it amusing that someone would mention this over ten years later, I was struck by the fact that the blogger got just about every detail other than my name wrong. Part of me is amused by this. Part of me is obsessive compulsive and feels like I should do something to correct the record. But then I get into the question of reliable is my memory after all these years? So for now I think I’ll stick with being amused.
