That is like naming your child Bambi. No racial inferences there although a certain type of park or club comes to mind. Although I suppose Cinnamon Girl could conjure up some unpleasant discourse.  Now where are my brewskis? seems it is coming up on Beer thirty.

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

That was pretty funny alright!!  And jeez I gotta tell you, those guys did a fantastic job on the delivery! Around these parts there are a lot of kids (well, now young adults) with some 'different' name conjured up by their old hippie parents. Would be fun to do a vid on that too. Rainbow, Moonbeam, Cedar, Crystal, Aquarius, Aphrodisia. APHRODISIA...huh!!!

I knew a girl in elementary school with the surname Hussey. For some reason her parents chose to christen her Brazen. Not a big deal when you're eight. I'd guess it wasn't so cute a few years later.
A woman I used to work with had the name "Kelly Kelley" after she married.
Then there was a Navy MCPO named John Priem who married a girl named Sue who was a Navy Lieutenant. That made her LT Sue Priem.
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.
