And sinuously intertwined.

Um...actually, my brother's name is Justin.

Coulda sworn I posted this yesterday...

I knew a girl named "Delicia" once, and she was a real bitch. Whether it was bitterness over the name, I don't know, but I cannot imagine being named something stupid like that and not being angry over it.

Once, in high school, we managed to have "Mike Hawksred" paged over the intercom.

Rho and I heard I.P. Freely paged at BWI airport 4 years ago. Who was the dummy that didn't catch that one? We think my brother did it, but he swears up and down that it wasn't him.

Back in high school, my friends and I called a bowling alley and asked them to page Mike Hunt. The person that answered the phone replied, "Why? Did you lose one?"

I would like to change my surname to Za and name my son Pete.

Pete Za.

I think their attitude is often derrived from the name they're given. My case study: a girl with "Bootsy" on her birth certificate. Jesus, that girl was bitch.

Syndicated collumn "News of the Weird" has been running a series for years of the idiotic things people with the middle name of "Wayne" find themselves involved with.

I don't think it's causal. It's just that idiots have parents who are also idiots.

That reminds me.

I read a book, and make up a story for my 5 year old daughter every night before bed. I make up various stories, but she hates the stories I try to tell about Dwayne. Dwayne is a naughty child and is always sneaking around behind his parents' backs, doing thing he shouldn't. Of course, he always gets hurt and has to go to the hospital. Playing with knives, cuts off finger. Carelessly goes into busy street, gets run over. Etc.

Whenever I start: "Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Dwayne..." she seriously protests, and won't let me continue the story. So then I make up something about faeries in the woods or something. No, not that kind of faerie, LJ. :)


I hope she never meets a real boy named Dwayne. I would feel sorry for him. I actually chose that name consiously because we have never known anyone named Dwayne.

Any of you guys ever left a note for a colleague asking them to ring back a Mr C Lyon and giving the number of the local zoo (not identified as such, obviously) ...:D

Hardy Johnson, anyone?

when i was a restaurant manager, filling in as host one busy friday night, a kid slipped one by me: Feltersnatch. yup. i heard it as i said it. i had to laugh. "Feltersnatch! party of two.....uh....huh huh"

What kind of resteraunt?
That's quite a career change.

Whenever a friend of mine had to give a name at a restaurant, he would casually say "Bobosovitchsteinstinklehoffenberg" and when they did a double take he would just nod knowingly and say, "Dave."
