I have a better one for you Schmitt:
Google my name. (Check my profile)
Now as embarrassing as the things I say on my website are in and of themselves, check out the entries on that first google result page and you find this wonderful character:
The Baltimore City Grand Jury indicted David Piccione, 28, on charges of kidnapping, false imprisonment, second-degree assault and reckless endangerment. Court documents allege on July 11 while at a gas station David Piccione and his ex-girlfriend got into an argument. Piccione assaulted the woman, dragged her into his car against her will and drove away.

Although if a potential employer googles for "name+criminial record" it would fall apart again. Instead of names, we could just use social security numbers to prevent confusion...
