I'm infamous, oh well...

Ah, but Google is your friend. Searching for Matt Dock turned up fourteen hits. About half of them were references to a Matt's dock, however. But the remaining hits turned up a Buckaroo Bonzai fan, a contributor to Frank G's SWDAO, and a character on Star Trek: Titans of the Stars or something similar.

Woah...I don't even remember half those things. I easily remember the SWDAO stuff, I just forgot exactly which ones I did.
The Buckaroo Banzai stuff is mine too, I know I've been to that site, I just don't remember e-mailing them about it. I'm surprised I knew all those ships back then
And is that the same ASDB that was made by Bernd? Because it doesn't look the same. I know I sent that picture of my Antares class to the ASDB site I knew, but as far I know it was never uploaded.
I have no clue where that guestbook entry came from. The website is dead.
Funny, when I search for Matthew Dock, it turns up a lot of guys named Matthew who have the nickname of "Dock"...funky...
I also apparently work in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering in Oklahoma. Weird. I just failed out of Aerospace Engineering and was going to change my major.

Also, here. One film in 1928. And an erronerous link to an article about Chuck Norris giving the names to one of his daughters, as middle names thank God.

I seem to be an architect. That, and the webmaster of my Youth Group website...
There is, however, no one with my name in IMDb...

Google won't have you Omega because you don't put your real name up everywhere, due to not-trusting the government and monkeys.
I put my real name up everywhere, and as a result I'm all over Google.
I think we're both pleased with our states of affairs.
Looking on Google, the first link is to my web-site (yes!), then my ICQ info page, then about an Irish councilman, then the fat child Simon pointed out, and then a quote I submitted to The Great Link ages ago.
I also apparently won the Holy Trinity Award back in 1999. Which is nice.
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.
