Mike Martinez on MySpace? OMG!

While hard to swallow, there's some doubt as to the authenticity of Brewster "Emcee" McCracken's MySpace page. For one, we're sure Brewster has way more friends than just Tom. But dig this – it looks far more likely Mike Martinez is the real deal. He's even gone far enough to fill out one of MySpace's omnipresent surveys. Too bad his YouTube HTML skills are a little lacking.

Hmmm. Last login 11/29. At least he's not getting his MySpace Jumpoff on from the dais.
