Lots of you already know about this, but if you don't please follow the link and click on the 'fund free mammograms' button at the Breast Cancer Site. They need our support to continue funding free mammograms for women who could not otherwise afford them.

While you're there, check out the other sites that are listed, including a hunger site and a child health site.

In other news, I'm procrastinating and so I did a meme. Gacked from lil_banik_slave and others.

HowManyOfMe.com

There are: 26 people with my name in the U.S.A. How many have your name?

In an interesting note, I know that one of the 26 people who share my name is (or was - I don't know when) a Maryland Senator.

Are there really 26 people with your exact name - first, middle and last? Or is it just first and last?

I know of two people who have the same first and last name as me. One lives in Austin and the other is Dad's first cousin who went to prison for embezzling millions of dollars when she was State Treasurer in Ohio. Fun, huh?

It only looks at first and last names.

I remember hearing about our embezzling cousin, but had forgotten her name.

There are apparently 9 people in the US with my official name, but only one with the name that I use in daily life. Which makes me wonder if I am that one person, or if it is someone else? If they look at phone records, I could be that person. If they look at birth records, it is someone else. It is all so very confusing!

Wow you are quick of the mark. I deleted that post shortly after posting it because I was worried that people would start asking "What is your surname?" and I don't like releasing personal information like that over the net. (Saying that, if you have ever recieved an e-mail from me, then chances are you already know what my surname is *LOL*)

You realise that I am going to use my Much icon every time I speak to you now. See what you have done ^_^

Somehow I can't make myself feel too guilty for causing you to spread the love that is Much. *grins*

the meme says there are 0 with my name but I'm pretty sure Debbie Margaret has another friend with the same name.

It's interesting, but clearly the results can only be trusted so far. I was really surprised to get as large a result as I did, but then, my first name was listed as the fifth most popular in the country. Gotta love being one of 4 million.
