I just did a "find friends" thing on Facebook. And put my own name in.
Kevin Baker. There must be thousands of the bastards out there.
It didn't give me a total. Just said "over 500".
You'd be totally fucked if you were trying to find one particular John Smith.
Give it a go. Check out the faces of the people who share your name.
There is a prize for the person who has the fewest matches. (A photo session with mrgnu
)
If anyone on here wants to add me as a friend (outside the onlinegooner group) I'm the one with a photo of the Grove.

You're lucky.
You don't have a very common surname.
You are bound to be the winner of the lowest name-match competition.
So I'll book you in for a nudie photo session with mrgnu.
Don't worry. Only ****'y will be naked!

I wasn't expecting there to be any, but shockingly
there are four listed but one of them is the same guy with two accounts, so there are 3...two in the US and one in Oz.

Has anyone spotted a namesake who looks remotely similar to yourself?
I trawled through 524 photos (or lack of).
I found some right weird looking characters. Body-builders pumped up on steroids. Guys who looked like they were off their faces from drugs or alcohol. Wimps. Hillbilly rednecks. Fat bastards. All sorts. And most of them were a bit ugly.
So.
I'm definately in the correct gene pool.

I couldn't see you on there Kev, perhaps your profile is private?
