I am waiting for the phone call from Austin.

My friend wanted her little boy to have a strong name.

1. Now THAT is cool.

I hope all goes well.

3. The littlle guy will be born on a great day.

His parents will raise him to be a good man.

[charlie and algernon]

2. Barack is going to be a popular name now

so cool!

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

12. Yes indeed it is.

[Haole Girl]

4. Jay Leno was actually joking about that recently...

talking about how in about 5 years, in kindergarten classes around the country, teachers will be saying "Barack" and 10 little boys will raise their hands! :D

[texanwitch]

5. So true.

Barack is a good name.

[Taverner]

6. Rock on!

[DarkTirade]

7. I was named after someone famous

and in my case it happened to be fairly apt... but I'd still worry about naming my kids after someone else.

[Midlodemocrat]

8. Betty Crocker isn't famous, freeper.

BTW. Happy Birthday, darlin'. :hug:

9. Heh, I was actually named after a composer

hence the aptness.

Although if I'd been named for Little Debbie that might be apt too... they say you are what you eat... and I used to be addicted to those damn things. Then my metabolism slowed down and I had to quit.

Thanky. I might actually have plans later tonight, since I hang out with the weird geeky crowd, a bunch of them were planning a big Guy Fawkes day thing. :P

[truedelphi]

10. I DID NOT KNOW that there wa a composer named

Alabama Bones...

[DarkTirade]

11. You learn new things every day...

:P

[KamaAina]

13. What? No 'Hussein'?

Wusses. :sarcasm:
