Surfing the web

So I was reading the Boston Globe and I noticed a section where they had pictures of random people. They included names so I thought, what the hell, see what I can figure out from a name and a picture. I tried a number of pictures/name before I got a clear hit. The picture was this one and the person who gave a hit is the women on the right KB (initials only-do your own search):

Part of the reason she was easier to find is that her name seemed fairly unique. You only get a few hundred hits on Google. Looking through a bunch of these I discovered that she is is originally from Iowa, went to Iowa State University at least. I found a full CV (her GPA was 3.95/4.0) and that she was a sorority president, majored in communication, etc... Along with that stuff I eventually found this pic, she's on the left, what do you folks think?

Same chick? I'm not sure but the name and blonde locks looks like a great match. God, I love the internet.

Wal-Mart is Evil

Just a quick addition. NPR made me aware of some very disturbing news. A store's employees in Saguenay, Quebec organized into a union. The first Wal-Mart employees ever to do so. This of course goes against long standing policies in the US WM stores that prevent organization. So what did WM do? It closed the store. Evidently, but not admittedly, trying to set an example. Go on Quebecois, combat pour la liberte! I for one, won't shop at any bloody WM stores, or Sam's Club for that matter. Costco is an employee friendly alternative.
