Is this really that surprising?

It's kind of a cool story actually. And no, I wouldn't think something like my family's Christmas card photo would end up in Prague on a storefront. Call me crazy but that's not exactly in my train of thinking as I post up a pic for friends and family to see.

It's still a feel-good story though. I mean, what if it ended up on like an Adult storefront window.

Pedophiles would enjoy that picture, wouldn't they.

Pretty funny/odd, though. You live in the U.S., there's a photo of you and your family on the window of a food place, and your buddy just happens to drive by. I mean really, what are the chances?

There's an Irish TV presenter called Eamonn Holmes, who does all sorts of British TV shows, and someone stumbled across a book in the Philippines or Indonesia - or somewhere in that neck of the woods - with his face on it. The book was about achieving success in business or something completely unrelated to him. If I find a link to the story I'll post it.

It seems to be that business are using google images for their promotional graphics rather than producing graphics or purchasing from media firms while assuming that they won't be found out.

It's a scary thought as to where your face might appear in the world.

lol that's interesting. I knew there was a reason why I dislike putting pictures online. I only put my own pictures on facebook and myspace, which is only viewable if you're my fweeend. x)

This is what I thought when I first read it.

The only thing I could think of was that maybe his/her buddy was at some internet cafe, or some public computer. It's just too much of a coincidence.
