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

why some people get two or three codenames

With George H.W. Bush my guess is one for each administration (Reagan, himself, W). But that doesn't make sense for the Carters, so I don't know.

Also, should they be giving out those codenames?

It says at the top of Brenda's link. The codenames don't serve a purpose anymore, they're just tradition.

Maybe the first ones didn't work?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Huh - the Obama girls have the same codenames as Reagan's daughters.

That's better than Gore having Ethel Kennedy's codename.

For Barbara Bush... that second name must be for the grandaughter, right?

Better that than Hearst's reason for using "Rosebud" as the nickname for his mistress.

That's what makes it slightly disturbing for me.

Ann, that's a ferret.

And adds whole new dimensions to Citizen Kane....

So on Friday, I got a call from teh vet's wondering if I was still bringing in MK for boarding that night. Buh? Anwyay, got it supposedly straightened out (they had the pickup day right, not the dropoff.)

I call today to get him in for a glucose curve and...they have him as coming in for boarding tomorrow.

New office staff in the last month or so.

It'd be funnier if I weren't paranoid that the week I AM boarding him might disappear from the schedule.
