Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Oh, yeah, I got distracted by all the name talk.

Happy Birthday, MM!

I missed #15 on the logic test, too.

That kid w/ the cooking show is beyond adorable, amych. So many things cracked me up. Like, not only does he identify the ingredients, but... the bowls, the spoon, some cups. Too funny.

I like the name Evelyn, but it is SHOOTING up the popularity charts

Really? I'll have to tell my godmother that, she'll love that her name is coming back.

Godfather's name is another unusual one--LaVern (yes, I said "godfather"). He doesn't use it other than for official documents; his everyday name is Vern.

Oh, and most definitely a happy birthday to the Miracleman!

I love the name Evelyn

We had a neighbor who was a few years older than me named Evelyn and when i was very little I couldn't pronounce Evelyn and used to call her Elephant. The name stuck and she never really liked me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just realized why I can't quite work with the name Kip -- Kip Winger!

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

There are at least two other people with my first and last name--an Irish artist and a South American socialite. Low-assed odds.

I swear there was a set of twins in my kinder named Muffy and Buffy. I'll have to ask my mom, because even as I seem to remember them, just....really? And besides, I was the kid who called my friend "Forehead."

Now tagless for your comfort.

My grandfather's name was Newton. He went by Newt. I briefly considered the name for Owen but was shot down. Which is crazy, considering my mathematician husband!

I have cousin Newt! First, once-removed, I think. And his wife's name is Anneliese - I'm not sure I'm spelling that right - and I like both of those names, especially hers.
