Huh?

Listen, let's first be very clear that I don't make a habit of Googling myself. I did it once, I know what's out there, end of story. Or at least I thought I did...

Someone from New York Magazine contacted me a couple months ago wanting quotes for an article they were doing on actors and residuals. They were given my info by One-on-One and wanted to ask me about my experience with L&O. We exchanged e-mails and that was that. I'd forgotten about it until the other day and decided to look and see if they ever ended up using it or not. Didn't find anything about that, but did come across this...
...
Omaha Benson High School Magnet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Notable alumni include actors Nick Nolte, Aaron Fili, Erich Hover, authors Terry Goodkind and Robert Reed, 1939 Heisman Trophy winner Nile Kinnick, ...en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omaha_Benson_High_School_Magnet - 24k - Cached - Similar pages

There are a couple things wrong with this listing:
.
A) I am not "notable". Yet.
.
2) Nick Nolte only went to Benson for two years before he was kicked out and ended up at Westside.
.

Another shining example of why the whole concept of a user-edited encyclopedia is ridiculous. Might as well just call it Wikimakesomeshitupedia.
.
Stupid.

Okay, first of all, we all know that you, yah you, went to Wiki and entered your info. Smart. Wish I had thought of it.

And second, when you are Benson...........and the Bunnies.........and in Omaha, you have a lot to live down. So they pretty much need anyone they can get to pad that fuckin' thing, ya know? I mean, half the kids don't even graduate, let alone do anything productive so what ya gonna do?

So while I personally think your great (so is Nolte, ha!) and deserving of any recognition, not really a lot of competition.

But still, eff-ing hilarious!
