Clyde who was a girl

That's it! I was blanking on my Iva grandmother's middle name, and it's Clyde. So, two girls out there who were Clydes. Weird.

My OBC's father's name was Bleakley. First name.

Now, I love The Secret Life Of. Jim O'Connor is my secret celebrity boyfriend. He's just such a dork in that show, it cracks me up. I was watching one where the owner of Bartleby's in Harvard Sqaure threatened to kick him out of the restaurant for being slow on the uptake on the whole milkshake/frappe new england debate. Jim just looked so confused. He's always all, "That's cool! I wanna do it!" Half the times the food people are like, "uh, no." or by the time Jim finishes mangling whatever it is they specialize in, they wish they had said no.

I don't know why I find him so endearing, but I do.

Marc Summers, though, is like PlasticMan3000. Marc, man, you've betrayed your roots! (he used to host that kids show Double Dare and urge children to swim through slime for a Huffy bike or whatever)

Shanga is the only one that sounds odd to me, but still.

Really? That one at least has roots in ... something. She was named after the Yoruba thunder orisha Shango.

Nonaine? She was given her name because they came up totally blank. They elided "no name" and gave her that. Which was really funny until I learnt how long I was called "it" before I was named ita.

Wentworth -- well Wentworth Miller might bring that name back, but my cousin's middle names (Harry Hugent Sylvester Constantine George Augustus St. Elmer) will need more than a breakout Fox show to make them look normal.

Now, I love The Secret Life Of. Jim O'Connor is my secret celebrity boyfriend. He's just such a dork in that show, it cracks me up.

Oooof. Nope - it's the dork thing that sets my teeth on edge. No publicity would be worth having him in my place, if I was in the biz. I have the same "dork" issue with Bobby Rivers.

Marc Summers, though, is like PlasticMan3000.

This, however is completely true. I'll grant you that at least O'Connor has a personality. I do have a hard time telling them apart until they start their respective schticks, though.

My father was the youngest of six. Their first and middle names were: Harmon Woodrow, Claude Oppolous, Willie Martha Mae, Myrtle Dew, Henry Zebedee and Barcey Butler. My father always insisted his parents were forced to give him a name when he was two - they called him "Baby" - and his father was reading a western about the Bar-C Ranch.

Ann Hazeltine

Outing myself as a sometimes lurker, Ann Haseltine was a big Baptist missionary, wife of Adoniram Judson. The camp I went to was named after them.
