"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Vortex, did your brother change his last name or something? I must have missed that.

yes, after my niece was born. My bro and SIL had issues about the baby's last name. My bro wanted his last name, my SIL wanted her last name and neither would budge. Instead of just hyphenating like normal people, they decided to change their last name altogether. I've never seen my father so hurt and upset. My mother is still pissed at my SIL. (which she blames for the whole thing)

Oh, yes, now that does ring a bell. Does their new last name reflect at all a combination of their previous names?

sort of. my brother' middle name (which he goes by, being a junior) and SIL's last name have the same first three letters, so that's their new name.

Huh. That's a new one to me. I'm sorry it's causing so much friction in your family.

Chris Rock on the Bush presidency: "He has fucked up so bad that it's hard for a white man to run for president."

It's funny because it's shaping up to be true...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Brothers mauled by tiger refuse the police access to their cellphones.

One of those things that doesn't mean anything, but gets a brain to wondering.

I seriously believe that those fuckwads were dangling Carlos Souza over the tiger's moat. And probably photographing it with their cell phones.

ETA: It goes along with the eyewitness who said she saw Souza and he looked ashamed of the way his friends were heckling the tiger. If his "friends" thought he was dissing them with his uninvolvement, they might have thought it fun to dangle the poor kid over the moat.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

So the cell phones are in the possession of police, but police can't look at what's on the phones without a warrant? Huh.

Does anyone here believe that no one has looked at the contents of the phones?
