Yellowstone advice?

I’ve been quiet recently on the blog, as I attempt to finish up a couple of projects in my summer internship. It’s almost over, but before I return to law school I have a vacation to look forward to.

My girlfriend and I are travelling out to see the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone for 10 days. Any advice or recommendations for us?

Naming Children for Googling

As I get ready for job interviews this fall, I took some time yesterday to google for my name. It’s always interesting to see what comes up, but this time I wanted to make sure that I knew what my prospective employers would see. Thankfully, I’m as boring as ever, always confused for my father, whose name I partially share.
It makes me wonder if people have started considering the “googability” of their childrens’ names. A John Smith would be virtually anonymous to employers doing unofficial background checks. On the other hand, Fraenk Unyque would be pretty high profile. Parents probably always balance uniqueness against convention already, but maybe Google has some impact on their choices.
