Posted on entry Those Clintons ::: February 12, 2008, 03:37 PM:
Yes! One of the things I've always found appealing about the Clintons is their ability to live publicly with their own flaws. I agree more often with Obama on policy, but I waver on who I'd prefer to see as president. Neither of them is going to do everything I'd like to see done. But I really hate how the Clintons are attacked in the media. Especially the misogyny turned on Hilary. In a lot of ways, I'd like to see her win just to flip off the misogynists.

Xopher @#139 - I know a Christopher in town, who also only goes by Christopher. I've even seen him type his name as Xopher.

Xopher @#125 - That's the same reason why my most common nickname is CJ. Do you, by any chance, live in Lansing?

Serge @#126 - The Crisis on Infinite Earths comment made me laugh.

Congratulations to Poesy and her parents!

First thought: Yay for more geeklings!

Second thought: What an amazing name! She gets the options of picking what bits of it she uses when. And can you imagine a three year old blithely explaining her entire name? The Emmeline is for Pankhurst, yes?

The names that bug me are the ones that the parents came up with to be "special" or "different" with no sense of where the name came from.

At my undergrad, working at the snackbar, I was for a while one of five Chrises working there. We weren't often all there at the same time, but there were enough times we had the "Chris?" "Which one?!" routine going. My mother picked my name with no sense of how popular it was. She liked it, and one of the main characters in The Magnificent Seven was Chris, and so I got the name.

Names with stories are more fun, I think.

Damn, I can't wait!
