Not In My Name.

From Jase. And yes, I'm out of ideas for an update today - why'd you ask?

1. Are you named after anyone? If so, explain.

I'm named after my great uncle David - all I really know about him is that he was lost over Germany on a bombing raid - he was in a bomber acting as a pathfinder - they found the target and led everyone else towards it. Very dngerous and, in his case, very fatal.

2. Do you have your children's names picked out already? If so, is there any significance?

No real idea, although Lilith (not just the name of Frasier's wife) is such a good name, it'd be a shame not to use it somewhere.

3. If you were born a member of the opposite sex what would your name have been?

I'm not actually sure. I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have been the feminine version of my name, so I have that to be (hypothetically) thankful for.

4. If you could re-name yourself what name would you pick and why?

I'd ditch the middle names, or maybe abbreviate them... hang on, that wouldn't work either - I'd sound almost like a Lost in Space catchphrase.

5. Are there any mispronunciations/typos that people do with your name constantly?

Look people - Frasier and Frazer are first names, not surnames, so just stop, alright? Thanks.

..and, seguewaying seamlessly, can I just say to Bush and Blair: Stop selling or giving bombs to Israel, yeah? You know they're not just going to lean on them and wag a stern finger at Hezbollah - they're going to use them to forcibly evacuate southern Lebanon in order to annex it. This is not a good thing.

And, Tony? Can I call you Tony? Because, if that half-wit can, then I think I've earned the right. Stop letting them land the planes carrying those bombs in Scotland's back yard. I don't want to know that bombs are being shipped through my country - I feel like I'm stuck on an arms dealer's supply route.

Especially because of what people do when they think civilians are being used to shelter illegal militant activities. Yes, that's right Tony, they bomb them.

Yours, in name only,

Dave xx
