This week’s Greg Ritter is…
: My referral logs show that someone found their way to my site by searching Google for “Greg Ritter.” I wonder if they were looking for me, or for Greg Ritter the cattle farmer or Greg Ritter the race car driver or Greg Ritter the java programmer or Greg Ritter the aerospace engineer or some other Greg Ritter.
I’ve only met one other Greg Ritter in my life. He worked at Virginia Tech when I was an undergraduate there. That Other Greg Ritter was a nice guy. I know because my great-grandmother would send me checks for my birthday, holidays, etc. and address them only to “Greg Ritter, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA.” They always made their way to That Other Greg Ritter before they got to me. He would call me to let me know he’d gotten another check from my Granny. That was pretty damn honest of him, because he could have just cashed the checks. They were made out to Greg Ritter, after all. :-)
