More on finding old friends.

Well, the search for old friends continues. We really seem to be making progress in locating people which is pretty cool in itself. What makes it cooler is that Jeremy and I had been searching for one of our friends for the last two weeks. We thought we were getting close because we were finding all sorts of stuff, blog comments he had made and old email addresses. The amazingly enough, he contacted Jeremy. wow. Thats two more in the last two days.

Ever do a Google search for yourself? Kind of amazing all this stuff that just stays out there. My name can't be all that common and a few years ago a Google search would have found an old bulletin from my church. Now there's all kinds of stuff and it isn't me. Somewhere out there is a baseball field named Darrell Snodgrass field. cool. found a comment I made on an NPR website, and found out that there is a Darrell Snodgrass living in Arkansas somewhere and another in Alaska. There was also a battle in the civil war where the Confederates drove Union forces off of Snodgrass Hill somewhere near Knoxville.

The web is an amazing source of info sometimes, but you really can't control it.
