Ugh, Sara.

I'm probably going to get yelled at too, for something that happened before I started working at this firm, which makes me want to be sick again, but I really can't.

Other now uncommon names in my family:

Redmond, Prime, Prosper, Clementin, Madonna, Olivera, Eugene, Monte.

My great grandfather's name was Prosper Ozon. Did I ever tell you how I found reviews of a self published novel where the protagonist was named Prosper Ozone? It's a strange coincidence. But maybe megan walker can tell me, how common in Prosper as a name in France.

System admin just came and got the manual. That cannot be good.

What kind of server is it, if I may ask?

Ugh, you guys.

I just don't understand yelling at people in a office setting. We're all grownups. What good does it do?

Okay, I just came across the name Vector Barter in an old Newfoundland Census. I wonder if that's supposed to be Victor. But Vector is amazing.

Obama still fighting to keep Crackberry:

I'm still clinging to my BlackBerry. They're going to pry it out of my hands.[...]

I don't know that I'll win, but I'm still--I'm still fighting it. And--but here's the point I was making, I guess, is that it's not just the flow of information. I mean, I can get somebody to print out clips for me, and I can read newspapers. What it has to do with is having mechanisms where you are interacting with people who are outside of the White House in a meaningful way. And I've got to look for every opportunity to do that--ways that aren't scripted, ways that aren't controlled, ways where, you know, people aren't just complimenting you or standing up when you enter into a room, ways of staying grounded.

In huge swaths of America, people wouldn't know the difference between Victor and Vector.

Madonna

This is my MiL's name.

Keep fighting Barack. Give up the cigarettes but hang on to that Blackberry.

In huge swaths of America, people wouldn't know the difference between Victor and Vector.

I was thinking that in Newfoundland, Victor would sound an awful lot like Vector.

My Great Grandfather was named Guillermo and his son William died. The surviving siblings each named a child for him.

My maternal grandmother had a son named Curtis who died as an infant. Most of my male cousins on that side of the family have Curtis as a middle name. Nothing to do with Tony.
