Can I ask what the name is?
I know someone who worked with an asshole doctor named Richard Head, who actually went by the name Dr. Dick Head. And my mom went to school with a guy whose name was Harry Bahls III. The third!
Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

Went to high school with Peter Whacker. I heard he changed his name in college.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
This is Buffista conversation number six or seven, but I never get tired of it.

A man named Richard Head owned a biker bar in Houston. It was called "Dickhead's" . It may have already been closed when I lived in HOuston.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I babysat for a boy named Merrywether. He went by Merry. He was a III.

I went shooting today! My friend had posted asking if anyone wanted to go, and I was like "sure, why not?" figuring shooting a gun was on my "I should do this sometime in my life" list (not quite a bucket list, but...includes things like that, and like "Learn how to drive stick shift" and stuff).
Totally bizarre and not what I expected. Outdoors (also bizarre because it's OCTOBER in SEATTLE and it was HOT AND SUNNY WTF), in this old quarry. Nothing set up, it's in a state park and people just bring some lawnchairs and whatever guns or targets they want, and go crazy. I shot two of my friend's guns (a 38 and a 9 mil) and three of her coworkers had also come, so I got to shoot one of the coworkers' AK-47! Madness. (Seriously, dude, who the fuck needs an AK-47?!?!) It was all a bit odd to me, but entertaining! I'm even more amused that after I posted about it on FB, one of MY old coworkers (who is a teapartier, and got married at a drive-through wedding chapel in Vegas, on her motorcycle) 'liked" it. Heh.
I think in the future if I were going to do it again, I'd like to go to a more...uh...formal? setting. Y'know, so I could see if I was actually hitting anything other than the ground? But it was kinda fun this time, because it was so very very country (friend is from Arkansas).

I don't want to walk to work. But here I go. Sigh.

So it takes 30 minutes to walk to work (I didn't leave RIGHT after I posted, nor did I *just* get here.) Good to know.

Fun, meara.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Have the day off, but had a doctor's appointment at 8:30 this morning. Went to Target afterwards to get some more long-sleeved shirts, and shampoo. Now have the rest of the day to work with.
