Speaking of names, did you know that Kiefer Sutherland's full name is Kiefer William Frederick Dempsey George Rufus Sutherland?
When I was just curious to see if my name had been dot-commed, I discovered a real estate broker and a school of cosmetology.
My next door neighbor married someone with my same name. It didn't last long. He was a wannabe rock musician with bad credit. I know this because my bank ran a credit report on me, and came up with stuff I never bought. Turns out the first 5 digits of out social security number are the same, and our street numbers are both "213." Now, I check all 3 credit reports every year.
Not that I use it but my kids can recite these lyrics:
They say a man should always dress for the job he wants So why am I dressed up like a pirate in this restaurant It's all because some hacker stole my identity Now I'm in here every evening serving chowder and ice tea Should'a gone to free credit report dot com [yee haw] I could'a seen this comin' at me like an atom bomb They monitor your credit and send you e-mail alerts So you don't end up selling fish to tourists in t-shirts

My real name is George W. Bush.
Oh, wait. Different thread.
BTW, there's something wrong with me. Every time I see HWW, I misread his subheading as "...COMETSTAR."
Sounds like next years hot kid anime series.

Speaking of Ol' George...
So I analyzed that and decided I didn't want to be the president during a depression greater than the Great Depression, or the beginning of a depression greater than the Great Depression." --George W. Bush, Washington D.C., Dec. 18, 2008
"People say, well, do you ever hear any other voices other than, like, a few people? Of course I do." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Dec. 18, 2008
"I've abandoned free market principles to save the free market system." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Dec. 16, 2008
"You know, I'm the President during this period of time, but I think when the history of this period is written, people will realize a lot of the decisions that were made on Wall Street took place over a decade or so, before I arrived in President, during I arrived in President." --George W. Bush, ABC News interview, Dec. 1, 2008
"I've been in the Bible every day since I've been the president." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Nov. 12, 2008
"He was a great father before politics, a great father during politics and a great father after politics." --George W. Bush, on his father, George H.W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Nov. 12, 2008
"Yesterday, you made note of my -- the lack of my talent when it came to dancing. But nevertheless, I want you to know I danced with joy. And no question Liberia has gone through very difficult times." --George W. Bush, speaking with the president of Liberia, Washington, D.C., Oct. 22, 2008
"I want to share with you an interesting program -- for two reasons, one, it's interesting, and two, my wife thought of it -- or has actually been involved with it; she didn't think of it. But she thought of it for this speech." --George W. Bush, discussing a company that improves access to clean water in Africa, Washington D.C., Oct. 21, 2008

"I didn't grow up in the ocean -- as a matter of fact -- near the ocean -- I grew up in the desert. Therefore, it was a pleasant contrast to see the ocean. And I particularly like it when I'm fishing." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Sept. 26, 2008
"Anyone engaging in illegal financial transactions will be caught and persecuted." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Sept. 19, 2008

Hm. Everytime I see yours, I think of Cyndi Lauper's hit, "She Bop."
I think we both need to get out more.

Just because I'm in a snarky mood and feel like kicking a dead horse . . .

It's nice that he knows when it's time to leave.
quote:"People say, well, do you ever hear any other voices other than, like, a few people? Of course I do." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Dec. 18, 2008[/QB]
Those voices are his brain cells shouting, "Feed me!"
quote:"I've abandoned free market principles to save the free market system." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Dec. 16, 2008
Nixonian translation: "If the president does it, it's not illegal."
quote:"You know, I'm the President during this period of time, but I think when the history of this period is written, people will realize a lot of the decisions that were made on Wall Street took place over a decade or so, before I arrived in President, during I arrived in President." --George W. Bush, ABC News interview, Dec. 1, 2008
You learn something new every day. I didn't know that President was a place.
quote:"I've been in the Bible every day since I've been the president." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Nov. 12, 2008
That's carrying revisionism a little too far, don't you think?
Actually, I can see the Gospel according to George: "Do unto others, then declare 'Mission Accomplished!'"
quote:"He was a great father before politics, a great father during politics and a great father after politics." --George W. Bush, on his father, George H.W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Nov. 12, 2008
When did politics end? Nobody told me, or the Democrats, apparently.
quote:[/qb]"Yesterday, you made note of my -- the lack of my talent when it came to dancing. But nevertheless, I want you to know I danced with joy. And no question Liberia has gone through very difficult times." --George W. Bush, speaking with the president of Liberia, Washington, D.C., Oct. 22, 2008[/QB]
I'm confused. Did Liberia go through difficult times because George danced with joy, or did he dance with joy because Liberia went through difficult times?
quote:"I want to share with you an interesting program -- for two reasons, one, it's interesting, and two, my wife thought of it -- or has actually been involved with it; she didn't think of it. But she thought of it for this speech." --George W. Bush, discussing a company that improves access to clean water in Africa, Washington D.C., Oct. 21, 2008
It's interesting because it's interesting?
I can just imagine George and Laura sitting around the breakfast table:
"George, I think you should talk about this program during your speach."
"Yes, dear."
"George? You haven't heard a word I said."
"I've listened to every word, dear. Now, what program did you say?"
quote:"This thaw -- took a while to thaw, it's going to take a while to unthaw." --George W. Bush, on liquidity in the markets, Alexandria, La., Oct. 20, 2008
And I guess the polar icecaps are going to take awhile to unmelt.
quote:"I didn't grow up in the ocean -- as a matter of fact -- near the ocean -- I grew up in the desert. Therefore, it was a pleasant contrast to see the ocean. And I particularly like it when I'm fishing." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Sept. 26, 2008
Here we have it: George's official denial that he is Aquaman.
quote:"Anyone engaging in illegal financial transactions will be caught and persecuted." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Sept. 19, 2008
Good. That means the "enemy combatants" at Guantanamo Bay will have some company.

Hey, now. Nothing wrong with a little 1980's, errr... fluff now and then.
[slight pause while I knock my skull against the keyboard a few times]
"Oke-She-Moke-She-Pop" is a song by Big Joe Turner, whom I absolutely adore.

We had a big gathering on campus to watch it. Not only local TV, but Montreal TV came down as well. They were interviewing some of the French-speaking profs for reaction as I was leaving.
