Google Stalk

Student #1:  Mrs. A, I Googled your name and found your blog.  I can't believe that you blog about us!
Student #2:  What?!  Where is the blog?
Student #1:  Just Google: Mrs. Ananich.

(Student #2 - after finding the blog begins reading posts aloud.)

Student #1:  Mrs. A!  That is so not right!  How can you write the stuff we say?!
Me:  What are you talking about?
Student #1:  You have a blog!  And it's about us!
Me:  I most certainly do not!  How do you know it is even me?

(Student #2 begins to read the biography of Ananich's Academy)

Student #1:  See?!  Clearly it's you!!!
Me (outraged):  It is not me!  Someone has clearly taken what I have said and posted things about us.  Does it sound like me to do such a thing?
Student #1:  Yes.
Student #2:  I would say, "yes" too, but look at how mad Mrs. A is getting.  Clearly, someone is stealing her identity.

(silence)

Student #1:  What is happening?!  We need to find this person!  Who is posting all this stuff?
Me:  I don't know, but can we stop talking about it, I am getting really upset?
Student #1:  Yes, but you know who I bet it is?  I bet it's that kid that stops in here every day.
Me:  I bet it is!

(knock at the door)

Student #3:  Hi Mrs. A.
Student #1 (shouting):  I KNEW IT!  IT IS YOU!  YOU STOP IN HERE EVERY DAY!  STOP STEALING MRS. A's IDENTITY!

(silence)

Student #3:  What are you talking about?
Me:  You may want to leave...they are all fired up.

(Student #3 leaves)

Student #1:  It is totally Student #3!  Aren't you mad?!
Me:  Yes, but we need to move on now.  Getting angry won't get the blog taken down.
Student #1:  Okay, but this isn't over.
