Son-of-a-Weizen Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 I just had an odd thing happen. I was standing in the front office at my kid's school, chatting up an employee about Led Zeppelin (she's a fan) and I mentioned having recently purchased some Zep mini lps. She wasn't totally sure what mini lps were, so she proceeded to Google mini lps & then clicked images -- and right there on the first page I suddenly see my profile photo (drinking a pint) from this board and my daughter points and says 'Dad, isn't that you?' 'Twas a bit odd to say the least. Anyway, why would Google grab my profile picture rather than my avatar, or even the picture I have on the signature line? How does it work?

Dan Gould Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 That is pretty funny that "mini-Lps", Weizen's collecting fetish, leads to a pic of Weizen drinking a brew, his other addiction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Alfredson Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 Just be thankful it wasn't that picture of you nekked with mini LPs covering your "twigs and berries". That would've been very embarassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parkertown Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Hey...my pics from some mini-lps I offered up on the board a couple months ago are the first two pics that come up when you do an image search on "mini-lps." When you click on 'em, it goes to my profile here... Hmmm...weird... I think I'm gonna go delete that thread... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 I did a google image search for my name and found 2 things. The first is that there's a designer named Shawn Dudley (who knew?) and the second was a link to a Dexter Gordon review I did quite a few years ago.
