    I was just going through a fascinating book by the "Cheapstake Living" author, who said to log onto www.google.com and put in your own phone number. If you could find driving instructions to YOUR house, then you're in danger, but can find a spot there to remove you from that one site. I found my own address, with some information about me and DH, who has been gone 4 years.
    They got most right but both our ages wrong.

    Try it, you may not like it!!

    I did mine a while back and laughed at the info they had on there. The only thing they had right was who I am married too. LOL!!

    For some it will come up with comments of what you said on this board, facebook, my space. etc.
    So if you don't want it out there, don't say it.
