Tower does lend itself well to porn names if you're a guy.
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm Pretty Boy Vogler. Huh. Or Snooky Vogler.
ION, Damn! Between Sunday's icefall and last night's wind, an arm-thick branch broke off one of our oak trees, and fell on my car. Which now has a lovely dent and scratched paint on the roof just above the passenger side windshield. I guess I should be glad it didn't hit the glass, but Damn!
I laughed so hard at Hobbit Onderdonk I scared the cat. And am having subsiding chuckles, like aftershocks.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Heh, the hospital I was born in turns out to be on South Essex, which would be great for Napoleonic wars porn featuring Sean Bean.

I'm fascinated that you people know what street the hospital is on.
I don't. I had a vague notion of the hospital's name, but Google suggests the vague notion is wrong.

My birth hospital has a lame street address, but its area of responsibility covers 52% of the Earth's surface area. How cool is that? Or, how interminable must the lines be?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
On any given day, Tripler has approximately 209 hospital beds available.
That's a weird stat. I mean, I can't work out if it's good or bad.

It's occurred to me that my mother's porn name would be either Bitsy or Boots Forrest. (I'm not sure which dog came first. And I'm not going to call her and say, "I'm trying to figure out your porn name. Which was your first dog?)

Huh. I Googled a little more, and my birth hospital was the only hospital between Pittsburgh and Cincinatti when it opened in 1850.
Which is even cooler/stranger when you realize it was in Virginia at the time.

What is even happening?
IIRC, it's on Broadway. But I don't know anyone who was born there, nor even whether they have a Maternity unit.My dh was born there. I have no idea if they still have a materinity unit, though.
I think the name of my hospital's street might well be Hospital Hill, which well. Just no.
