College Student Googles Himself : 'Sometime It's A Good Idea'

Zachary Garcia and Zachery Garcia  may have homonymous names , but , as you'd imagine  they're actually very different people . The  Zachary on the  left  is  a University of Florida student who works at a sandwich shop .  The Zachery on the right is a teenager accused of murder . Investigators in Polk Cunty Florida , however , failed to pick up on the subtle difference  in spelling between the two names ... a mistake  that came to light after  a casual  Google  search.

Turns out authorites  in the region mistakenly  circulated a drivers' license  photo of Zachary  ( with the 'a') whom they clearly confused with the real suspect , Zachery (with the 'e') . The college student became aware of the mistake  only after Googling his name , and discovering that (surprise) he was wanted for murder . "I was just very shocked to find my picture  and the article saying that I was  convicted of  a felony murder charge , he told Tampa Bay station WTSP . "And I was just very shocked  and angry that someone put my name  and picture up there  and said I did something I didn't do.

The actual suspect , along with four other teenagers , allegedly  broke into a house  on September 23rd . One of the  homeowers shot and killed one of the teens , but , because  the death took place in the middle of a felony , all three kids  (including Zachery)  were charged  murder ... Zachary , the sandwich-maker claims his everyday problems aren't nearly as dramatic . "Everyone  makes mistakes ," Garcia added .

Garcia said , "I work at Publix and I might get some sub (order) wrong , but for someone to get (the photo of a suspect) wrong ... it's not a sandwich , It's  a persons' life you are dealing with . "

My take : Very true , but  on the bright side , at least Garcia's not wanted for murder , and that's certainly  something we take for granted each day.... know what , I think I will  google myself  , I may find I'm wanted for poking a man.[giggles]

  20. They just said that this life form was born on earth. It was born in a very toxic lake and it lives on arsenic. In it's DNA, instead of hving a molecule of phosphorous like us, it has a molecule of arsenic.

  22. Until now scientists thought something like that was impossible. So now they have had to throw all their theories about life on other planets out with the trash. Aliens could be very different from us indeed. They will probably look hideous to us.
