About a year ago, there was a girl that I was introduced to who looked very familiar. It eventually ended up being a girl I dated for a few days before I left for the olympics in '96. And don't worry, I remembered her just fine about 5 minutes after we left each other's sight. We were only semi-dating, so I get a 'get out of jail free card' on that one.
Those are one of those times where you just say, WOW, it really is a small world.
Today I get an email from an old schoolmate of mine giving me a quick thanks for trying to get people to vote for her as a reporter for ripe.tv. More on that story here.
I decided to ask questions such as, where in god's name would you have ever gotten information that my website even existed? Although I do get some 'hits', I never thought it was from anyone other than me, my family, and the occassional cross dressing puppy loving pedofile. Yeah, my log says people have actually run searches on those terms, and they come up with my site somehow. Pretty weird.
Anyway, she tell's me that her friend Shari from NY passed along my site to her. Thank you Shari, for sending my well wishes out to Karla, you are great friend to let her know she has a stalker here at home.
Once again, small world.
In the long run, Karla did end up getting a gig with Ripe. Once she gives me a little more info, i'll be sure to keep everyone posted on her progress. She's a great girl, and she deserves the happiness that she is currently receiving. jakeny@att.net |
