I'm posting this so maybe these people will Google themselves and I can get in touch with them.
Vincent Robinson - I went to Hunter College with him in 95-96 (almost a decade ago, wow!). He was a film student and was from Florida. He came and stayed with me in BR a few times.
Samirpan Soni - Also from Hunter, a Indian guy from England who was super into Hip-Hop. I imagine he is back in England now.
Tom Lawler - From Mahopac, New York. Also someone I knew at Hunter. Introduced me to the films Shock Em Dead and Bad Taste.
Mason Horstmann - From New York, a film student, used to live on Sutton Place. Good dude.
All these people went to Hunter, and I've been trying to track them down for awhile, since I moved closer to New York City. If any of them are reading this, drop me an email or respond to this post.
Anyone else who is reading this, feel free to add your own people in the responses section... Or try to track these people down for me. Tips that lead me to one of these people will result in free Killoggs shirts.

carla [email] said at 6:26 PM 01-30-2004: Brad Knauss - My middle school crush. The reason I got on my first rollercoaster. I was too goth for his All American boy image though.
Alicia Witters - one of my first best friends in 4th grade when I moved from Beltsville to Silver Spring. We lost touch when I changed high schools. She was always a cool girl. Where are you Alicia?
Alicia W. said at 1:54 PM 05-13-2004: I'm here!
Is it strange that my heart is beating like I'm running a marathon as I type this? I never thought we'd meet again.
brad knauss said at 3:44 PM 01-04-2008: Hey Carla! Im am killing time at work and decided to google myself and came across this page about googleing yourself hahah.. I tried to get in touch with you a few years back but im not sure if it worked. My email address is bradknauss@yahoo.com.. Let me know if you get this.
Jake said at 8:14 PM 01-30-2004: Kermit Black Ramaces, AKA Tempest Xavier: My camp counselor at Bar 717 Ranch camp, a working utopia if ever there was one.
Don Koelpin: my co-counselor from the same camp, who helped me deal with the absolute lack of utopia on the other side of the camper/counselor line.
Jennifer Judd: The cook at the camp that took care of me on my free days, and let me take care of her kids.
Cassie Rogan: From my high school class, and nobody but nobody seems to know where she went...
Brandonr said at 3:42 PM 02-03-2004: Jesca' the puppet-maker.
That fine black woman who came into KLSU that one time, but whose number I lost.
That's all I can think of.
josh [email] said at 4:20 PM 02-03-2004: John Todd - worked at Tinseltown in Baton Rouge, I worked at Education Unlimited/Baytec computer camp with him and Mark. He was an intense guy. He moved to LA to break into the movie business. I wonder if he did.
jc said at 1:35 AM 08-12-2005: I'm trying to find an old buddy. I googled his name and found where you had mentioned his name in Feb. 2004. He's Munnie Hall (Wm. Munford Hall), in Huntsville the last time I talked to him. Is this the guy you know, and do you know how to contact him? Thanks for your help.
talice [email] said at 3:51 PM 02-04-2004: Ilias Skourlas. My sweet, goofy best friend for about 6 months in my first year at LSU before he went back to Greece. Then he went to music school in England. He's probably somewhere in Europe right now.
Donald said at 8:42 AM 10-11-2004: Hi, so you found Ilias?
I met him in London, and he became a good friend of mine as well. He is one of the most energetic and inspiring persons I've met. Later he studied in the Netherlands, where I am from. Then he went to Greece, to serve in the army...That was two, maybe even three years ago. He sort of evaporated. I haven't spoken to him since. Do you have a recent email address?
sandra [ url ] said at 1:02 AM 08-23-2007: yes, I remember him; we used to live in berlin together for a while ;-)
I wonder if he is still doing music or if he has survived the army... and I think I met you too donald; in holland while I was visiting Ilias ;-)
talice [email] said at 2:13 AM 07-29-2005: ahh, he wrote to me twice back in September, both with really bad spelling that he always had. . . he didn't tell me much but that he was in Athens, Greece fixing a place up to become some kind of theater or club. then we lost touch again just as quickly as we found it. but i think now i'm going to try him again.
myriam said at 4:56 PM 02-13-2004: Chad McPhail : last heard from, attending Parsons NY. potentially moving to Parsons Paris. one of the coolest kids i've known.
Christina Nargi : last heard from in Hoboken. I can't imagine she stayed there long. someone I really admired and enjoyed at CMU.
zack [email] said at 5:40 PM 02-13-2004: Yvette Williamson. I went out with her in Mobile for 1.5 years.. I wonder what ended up happening to her.. I somehow imagine her married already.
pokey [email] said at 1:16 AM 02-15-2004: Christopher Anglin. He lived with my family during the year I didn't. He was a very good kisser, but that's not why I want to hear from him. I just want to know if he is okay.
pokey [email] said at 9:51 AM 09-22-2004: You know what is really funny? I just read this post, totally unaware that I had already posted this, and thought "I should put Chris Anglin on this list. I wonder if he is okay."
chrispy said at 7:25 AM 09-22-2004: A dude I went to high school with, named Ben Owens. LSMSA class of '88. He was class of '89 or something like that. He was cool.
julie [email] said at 1:52 PM 06-10-2005: Susan Habel: my best friend in 4th grade. We had sleepovers all the time and rented The Parent Trap about once a week. We talked our parents into buying us matching pale pink Reeboks. She moved to Missouri and I lost contact with her.
Ebony Price: My best friend in 5th-6th grade, we checked out books from the school library on how to be witches. And we invented aver 50 secret codes in which we wrote each other elaborate notes at school. (Virginia Beach)
Juan Navas: Best friend in 9th grade, we spoke german together and watched old black and white movies in his basement after school. And listened to Ethel Merman cds, and shopped at the Gap. I just want to know where he is, and what hell he's raising these days.
Bendependent [email] said at 2:14 AM 07-29-2005: people who i've always wondered what happened to them:
carey adams: a guy who lived around the block from me in new orleans who i used to skate with
andrew thiele: this guy i was friends with in 4th grade in new orleans who eventually moved to new jersey
jennifer workman (jenny workman?) - a girl i dated in high school who lived in kenner and i'd have to get my parents to drop me off at different area malls to meet up with
spence hanneman - another new orleans childhood friend
charlie (charles?) coulon - friends with him in middle school
joanna nichols - who once again i'm mentioning here (who even has a head) but no one has seen or heard from in years. she emailed me a while back and i responded, but that's as far as that one got...
for that matter i'd also like to talk to colin creaghan.
people from high school i often wonder what happened to them:
bree kenney, cole mankin, ryan tallon, jeff wellman...
other than that, i feel like i've done a pretty amazing job keeping up with people. i'm sure i could probably think of a bunch more, but i'll save them for a later day...
jeremy [email] said at 2:59 PM 05-04-2006: jeremiah miller - aspiring young actor who was my friend in elementary school. i'd heard that he had a small role on some cop drama and had done some stuff on broadway
jeremy [email] said at 9:50 AM 07-18-2006: Maria Meckley - Awesome girl who went to Penn Manor High School in Lancaster, PA. Had a dream with her in it last night and am wondering how she is doing...
anthony [email] said at 1:25 PM 05-29-2008: I will put a few of my friends from Russellville, Arkansas in here.
Jeffrey Johnson / Jeff Johnson: He was my best friend from age 4 until I moved away. Sometimes I wonder how far our lives have diverged as the last time I went back around the age of 16, everyone had a truck or Bronco. I still drive small japanese cars.
Jeremy Fuller:
This dude was best friends with my other friend Tim Smith and they lived in Paris.
I'll throw Ryan Northrop and Zach / Zack Freeze in here too.
I can't imagine they'll google themselves, but whatever.
brad [email] said at 2:26 PM 05-29-2008: Roger Vickers - This was my best friend in second grade at Maplewood Middle School, in Sulphur. I actually dreamt that we were reacquainted last night. He just walked up to me from out of the blue and said, "Hey Brad, Roger Vickers! Haven't seen you in awhile!" He had a man's body, but the same baby face and haircut he had when he was in second grade, so I said, "Oh, wow... you look just the same!"
Chad Holland - Met this guy at LSU my freshmen year. He lived in Power Hall with me, and we were into some of the same punk/hardcore music. He called me Squiggy for some reason. I think because I somehow reminded him of Squiggy on Laverne and Shirley, which makes no sense to me.
brad [email] said at 2:36 PM 05-29-2008: Martin Munroe - I worked with this guy at Reel Video in Berkeley, and he was one of the managers. At the beginning of our shift after he gave everyone their cash drawer and made sure everything else was cool, he'd typically crawl under a skirted table in the store and take a nap.
