What's in a name?

Loose lips sink ships. It's quickly becoming clear that having a website with my name on it could be....problematic.

Discussing the details of my Seinfeldian dating life has always been fun, but Google is going to get me in trouble sooner or later.

You see, people, and women in particular, are sneaky weasels.

They investigate things..It's extremely common to "Google" someone before you go on a date. That used to be fine, because there are thousands of Todd Allens. Somehow though, out of 9,470,000 results for my name, I have become #9. Finding me on the internet has become the online equivalent of finding a Starbucks, and when is the last time you saw a Starbucks on a date! Huh?! Tell me that!

I'm screwed, or rather if my dates start looking me up, I'm not. This will not stand.

So until I remedy this problem, my stories are going to be less timely. I'm imposing a post-mortem rule on all dating related posts. You won't hear the story until the girl is gone for good. It's the only way I can keep telling them in the traditional/non-PC manner, without being stabbed in my sleep.

Sucks too.. I had a really funny/good weekend. All I can say for now is that step #2 from the getting dumped guide is complete, and went *much* better than anticipated given my current lack of hair.

I'll try and remember some oldies/goodies until the time lag works itself out.
