Everything I Need to Know About Myself...

...I learned from Google searches. A search for me on the beloved search engine reveals these ten little known facts:

10. I play women's soccer in Wheaton, Illinois. I'm a midfielder.

9. I'm also a marketing manager at MIT.

8. In 2002 I was the National Arts winner in dance for my ballet skills.

7. Interestingly enough, was born in 1642 in Milford New Haven CT, and died about 40 years later.

6. I then played Cosette in Les Miserables at the Palace Theater in London. My parents were very proud.

5. I'm currently a lawyer. I also pay the violin and like badminton.

4. When inquiring about the International Council on Mining and Metals, I'm the one to talk to.

3.  I'm an abstract painter.

2. James McVarlo married me in 1710 and made me his widow in 1755.

1. Thankfully, I was crowned Miss Washington County Fair in 2001.

Yes folks, those are my stats, courtesy of Google. Don't even get me started on the number of results that claimed I am a street.

Thanks, Mom and Dad.

Wow Sarah, if all that is true (and why should we doubt you or Google?) then you look amazing for your age!

And I bet that street just wants to be as lovely as you so it took your name to try and achieve such lofty goals, it could have asked first though...
June 26, 2003 | Unregistered CommenterCoolB
Yes. there is even a Yahoo group of people who used to live or currently live on you. The street that is.

LOL... That�s so weird...

I did a search for your name on google today, and was laughing at the exact same thing!



And look at how good of an artist you are... (via google image search)

You're lucky, Sarah. Most of the Google entries I find when I search for my name, I'm actually responsible for.

Would Sarah Lane give you the time of day?Take The 10 Question quiz!

Its the 9th hit on a google search for "Sarah Lane"
June 26, 2003 | Unregistered CommenterDavid
Yes... I am a moron.

I now realize there were only 7 questions... I was confusing this test with the grammar test Sarah posted several weeks ago.

How I yearn for an "Edit Post" feature!

Hey guys,

What time is Sarah usually at her desk? I work the deep night shift at a computer support call center and cant ever seem to catch her.

I find it a bit boring looking at her chair... And I really want know what�s in that bag on the corner!(I would ask her, but from what I can see I don�t think she replies to the comments)I like to think that she reads them though.

:P

I am a research asst. at the Fed, a senior security asst. at Boston University - which is very very odd, in a long-story kind of way, a Solicitor (Lawyer) in England, a conceptual artist influenced by classical art theories, a deceased Phish fan (creepy!), an Engineering professor at the University of Bradford in England, and a biophysics research assistant, and my favorite, "the only hall monitor for 6th period."

I used to live on Sarah Lane :)

I found that I am a Deputy US Attorney for the Department of Justice and was active in the ENRON investigation.

I am also an artist, chemist, gospel radio dj, realtor, and most important;

I am a very important executive movie producer in Hollywood!

So, whenever you want an interview, let me know. I'm all yours!

June 27, 2003 | Unregistered CommenterDan
i got this from that qiz

You are my ultimate best friend, my soul mate oflife, friendship, and/or romance. I trust youcompletely and can tell you absolutelyanything. I love everything that you do,because I'm the same exact way. My love for youis equivalent to that of Torengos. Maybe evenhigher in your case.

You probably don't exist. You're probably myimaginary friend that I created to feel betterabout myself. And that's okay that I've donethat. I like being in denial.How much of Sarah Lane's Approval Do You Have? brought to you by Quizillayou rock sarah.
June 27, 2003 | Unregistered CommenterShRooMy
LOL..

i got this from the quiz...

I view you basically the same way I view Busch Light: I couldn't give a flying poop. I probably don't even notice you, until I'm forced to be in your presence. And even then, I'd probably chuck you aside. You were probably that weird kid in middle school that used to follow me around while I ignored you. So go away now.



Ouch!!!

Hmmm, thought I was the only one who searches for his copies. I am the original Hyper Smiley and in the end there can be only one ;-) That's what I get for artificially inseminating 100's of normal smiley's. One of my spawns is gay and loves to name cities after his last name. I guess there's a sensitive side in my gene pool somewhere. I can't seem to find it though. On the other hand my love of many sciences has spread like wildfire. Oddly enough I couldn't find any in the porn industry. Which is a good thing. My scary big yellow bannana is something the whole world doesn't have to see. Anyway, since I'm in a similar subject. Will the world be seeing any little Dark Tippers? I hope so. We need some fresh stock to purge the poisonous sea of mankind. Long live the multi billion Mary Kate and Ashley... I mean Sarah Lane empire!!!

Your part-time lover,Smiley Wonder 8D

Weird. I did this exact same thing on myself for the first time yesterday and now here I am reading about you doing it. The really cool thing I found was that there is a guy with my name that is also a web and graphics designer, but he is WAY better at it than I am. I was thinking about how cool it would be to start sending my prospective clients to HIS site to impress them. Okay, not really - my conscious doesn't allow that sort of behavior.

Oh, and I am also a(n):

-NFL football player - {incidentally this guy was born 10 months to the day before I was...this is getting creepier and creepier.}-A meteorologist in Florida-A realtor-A kid that was on an episode of Nickelodeon's You Can't Do That On Television in 1982-...and, well this football guy is apparently pretty popular....
