Famous Name?

Have you ever had someone think you were someone when you were not? Of course, this happens to every one at least once. Well it just happened to me and I found it pretty funny.
This is a instant message I just received while I was just sitting here minding my own business. I had no idea what to say. I sat there for a few seconds, then replied but it seems that she had already logged off.
So I decided to do a little research to see why she would ask me this and why she would have received such an email.
I quickly found the answer when I googled my name, Jason Stallings. The first result is to a snopes page. For you who don’t know what snopes is, here is a snippet from the Wikipedia article on snopes, “The
Urban Legends Reference Pages (also known as snopes.com) is a website
dedicated to determining the truth about many urban legends, modern-day
myths, and other stories floating around of uncertain or questionable
origin.”
So right away I knew what was going on. I opened it up and the story confirmed what the instant messenger said, and thankfully snopes reports the story as false.
So I added this person and I will try to straighten it out with her when she is online next.
Pretty funny story huh?
