Because books.

I got #15 right but ... by accident, I think. Got two others wrong, and one I misread, which is the true mark of a horrible skimmer. So, 87% logical. Not too bad.

Aw, Perkins. Tea and comfy clothes and TV for you.

Happy birthday, MM!

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

Top 100 Baby Names of 2008.

(The Baby Name Voyager is better, but it won't load on my work PC.)

[eta: I think the entire Jossverse and cast of Heroes is on that list.]

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The Baby Name Voyager

My first thought was, "People name their kids Voyager? Like the space probe? So when they get to school, their classmates call them V'ger?"

My brain is a strange place. Yet, for Buffistas, eerily familiar.

Top 100 Baby Names of 2008.

Our top picks are not on the list, which pleases me. I love looking at baby names.

I'm vaguely irritated by the "boys names ending in N" trend that seems to have cropped up - our goal was never to give D a name that our special little snowflake would have all to himself, but we'd decided years ago that our first child would be named Dylan, and now we look like sheep. We're not sheep! Just ahead of the curve!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Preach it - that's why Emma got changed to Emeline around week 38.

I'm amazed that Amy isn't on the girls' list at all. Wow. We are so out of fashion, Aims!

And Ben isn't on there in any form. Huh. Sarah is #20, but with an H.

We are very 70's.

Well it's not an "official" list - their numbers are from Babycenter members, not census data. (Trendy or not, I seriously doubt there were more Aidens born in 2008 than Michaels, you know?)
