Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
It is hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that Shatner and Nimoy are the same age. Also, that Shatner is OLDER than Leonard Cohen. I do find myself wondering if they were ever in the same circles in 1950s Montreal, though. I mean, he's only 2 years older than COHEN
I was going to say that, if they both went to Jewish school, then they probably went to the same one, since Montreal really only has one Jewish school, but wikipedia tells me that Cohen went there, but Shatner did not. (It's actually a pretty interesting school. In addition to English as the language of instruction and Hebrew language in religion classes, they also require that all students take French and Yiddish.)
t edit: I was wrong. The Montreal Jewish school that teaches Yiddish isn't the same one that Cohen attended.
Ple, you should follow the Fug Girls SWINTON! strategy and just refer to him as COHEN!
P-Cow, your voice post sounds like Steven Hawking. You poor little critter. I'm glad you didn't have any irreversible death trips.
three of us Kathys in a row, each one spelling our name differently!
And you spell it the Right and Proper Way.
Interestingly, my freshman dorm also had 3 Kathys on my floor. Unfortunately, we all spelled ours the same way. And, all of us were from Colorado (the uni was in OK), so you couldn't even say, "Kathy from Colorado." We ended up solving it by all going by our full names: Kathleen, Kathryn, and Kathy.
And you spell it the Right and Proper Way.
Actually, in high school and college, I spelled it "Kathie." I wanted to be different, what can I say? First job out of college, I was given a name plate spelled "Kathy," so I went with it.
In 1930, Lois was the 18th most popular name and it's never shown up on a list since. Which is why there is a Lois Club - there are just enough to make up a small club in each geographic locale. I'm still the youngest one to ever contact them - most are in their 70's and 80's, appropriately enough.
I want this. If I can't have it, I want to invest in it. [link]
They're privately held. Damn.
Which is why there is a Lois Club
Lois Johnson was my best friend when I was a Freshman in highshool, '77 or thereabouts.
P-Cow, your voice post sounds like Steven Hawking.
Hee. Or Strong Bad!
I feel fine. This anesthesia recovery is much better than the one after my shoulder surgery. The Vicodin is making me a little drowsy, but not overwhelmingly so.
I felt a stitch in my gum. That was weird.
Elizabeth was in the top ten but I don't know any other little Elizabeths. OTOH, we know three Franciscos, which was maybe 148.
I see the SSA now has a "similar names" feature. Is that new?
There's a Lois with the same last name as me who I've been chatting with on LJ. She and I are about the same age - the only Lois I've met who's about my age. It's a name that should fade out the way of, say, Edna, or Wilma, IMHO. It's a tiny bit hard to say, and most people don't know how to spell it.
