    Yeah, thats a lot of results.

    I got over 22,000 for a regular search on Yahoo! so I did a few names of specific family members.

    Apparently, my uncle Val and Aunty Libby attended a wedding

    I found a few posts my stepmom made when she was working on our family tree.

    Found a bunch of music my grandpa did when looking up my cousin of the same name, Jon.

    Best of all, apparently, my uncle wrote a poem a few years ago:
    Water Love
    by Val Vorisek

    Water smooth as rippling silk,
    Reflecting the mercury silver sky,
    Gently surrenders to the shoreline
    In one endlessly undulating caress.
    Its waves aroused by the wind's embrace
    And cherry blossom kisses on upturned face,
    I envy its singleness of purpose,
    Its relentless pursuit of dry ground;
    Love in search of a heart;
    Love so completely found.
    HAHAHAHAHA.
