Stuff I learned today:

1--My hot, hot boss has a penchant for expensive toys. Although I learned that before making his chart, it was proven today when he brought in yet another tiny car that cost more than $50.

2--Men find me intriguing, especially when i'm trying to fill thier lives with intrigue.

3--Calling California with our POS phone plan is expensive.

4--There is a 9 year old girl in Dallas named Wednesday. I bet she's cool as hell.

5--the new Pinnochio is not very good.

6--Denny's still proudly serves margarine.

7--One of my co-workers is VERY well endowed.

8--It is difficult to find weed during the holidays.

So we find you intriguing, do we?
I'll give you intrigue! I'll reveal just enough of my assassination plot to drive you utterly, utterly mad! Ha!

Oh, wait. Too late.

P.S. Intrigue is what you make of it. Take this from someone who spends a good sixty percent of his day fantasizing about being an international spy.

I'll have lackeys fetch the wine.

"They say the dog bays in Chicago. Now hand over the merlot."

As for the snuggling ... I'll have to stop by in disguise and ravish you, from time to time.

Just like I do now.

Having a name like Wednesday does not mean you are interesting, but it might mean your parents are.

I have met a woman whose first name was Sunday and another who's middle name was Saturday. I went to college with a woman whose mother was name Tuesday. Crusoe had a friend named Friday, but that was just his club name. or maybe it was an SCA name. I forget.

Am I babbling?

Tell your friend that being an International Spy isn't that glamorous. Mostly paperwork and jet lag. I'm sorry, but I'm not allowed to tell you how I know this.

Actually, if your name is Wednesday, it is pretty much a guarantee that you are interesting. It is, of course, particularly true in my case.

My parent, OTOH, is a monster.

I'm sorry but I don't believe you ae the name you are born with. If you have a son with the genetics of an Accountant, the personality of a Republican and a face for Radio, naming him Blitzkrieg is only going to teach him lie at an early age ("I know it's SPELLED 'Blitzkrieg', Teacher, but it's pronounced 'Billy'. It's Swedish.")

Being a Monster can be Interesting - maybe not E-Ticket attraction interesting but at least Chinese Proverb 'May You Live In Interesting Times' interesting.

Perhaps it is true that you are nto the name you ar eborn with. I pondered changing my name for many years, before I saw it as an opening to embrace my own uniquness.

That may sound like a load of PC crap, but I felt like such an outsider freak at a time when it really felt important to have people on my side. Once I finally figured out who I was and how much I liked me, turning into the skid of being a wierd kid with a wierd name started to feel pretty good.

I convinced a bunch of bullies that Charles Manson was my father. Since they didn't know thier history very well, it worked, and they left me the hell alone for awhile.

Actually, "May you live in interesting times" is not a proverb, it is a curse.

I would agree that your name CAN influence your life, but it isnt a guarantee. I imagine a BAD name is more likely to influence your life that A GOOD name. However, I think a name like 'Fred' has been a real character builder.

I have friends with MULTPLE alternate names depending on who they are with.

I tried to pull the Manson's-My-Daddy thing a couple of times. He spent a part of his youth in West Virginia where I was born. He wasn't there the right time though.

Actually, Manson had a LOT of kids through The Family that were given up for adoption. You are about the right age to be one of them. Be careful what yuou wish for.


Proverb or Curse. You say Tomato, I say Squishy Projectile.

I've seen my birth certificate once before I split from my fam. Luckily my "real name: is Wednesday, not Angel or Zezozoze Frank Mae Glutz.

So i think I'm safe.

You should make more lists like this. I find them amusing and intriguing.
