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.
Barack gets elected president today.
Solaris. It's part of this complex architecture that I'm still struggling to understand. The other servers on the system are up, so I can't blame someone tripping over a cord (seriously, we got unplugged from the network by a contractor once. )
Ah. The Sun support web site has been wonky all week, BTW.
Oh, are we still on the names? Yay. My great aunt was Marguerite, but went by Day (Marguerite -- Daisy -- Day). My grandmother was Grace Matilda, which I've always loved, but now has extra happy-making connotations around here.
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.

My maternal grandmother had two sons named Gerald. One who died as a toddler, and his namesake who died in his thirties. So my grandmother told my mother not to name any children Gerald, "Because they will just die on you." My brother's middle name is Gerard, as a close tribute.

WTF? And judging by the hair on the leg, that's a guy wearing those
(Some other Fabulon posts are NSFW.)
I just don't understand yelling at people in a office setting. We're all grownups. What good does it do?
And yet... remarkably... the person who yells is invariably someone who could can your ass if you pointed this out. You never hear about a file clerk or secretary who can't keep his or her fucking temper.
