She should get a reward for helping to catch the crook.

I just googled my name and got five pages -- a couple of the hits were actually me. I have a pretty unusual name. I'm not aware of anyone famous with my last name.

I just googled myself and found out that I am a newscaster in Ohio.
That is really interesting, cuz I ain't never been to Ohio.
(It feels kinda weird to know that there is another me out there)

Can't believe he told her his real name! If someone told you their name was "LaShawn Pettus-Brown", would you assume it was real?
