I am Sam Sam I am I'm not too fond of green eggs and ham Did you know the more you write your name ( Sam Wolfson ) on your myspace, the more it comes up when you search for Sam Wolfson on google. So essentialy, if you just write Sam Wolfson a lot on the front of your myspace, then people who are looking for Sam Wolfson on google will be directed to your myspace.
