Your blog is creative Keep up the great work. This may be of interest to you; how to buy & sell everything, like music on interest free credit; pay whenever you want.
I know Paula, and I can say with complete confidence that she's definitely interested in how to buy & sell everything, like music on interest free credit.
Paula, I'm not sure you should be throwing stones -- if memory serves, your middle name is of the unusual variety...like it's a dude's name or something. Gene! It's Gene! No idea where I pulled that from, but I'm sure I now have forgotten something rather important because of it.
Granted, it's no Bigboobs McGee, but still.
Please don't make fun of me. And yes, I did in fact grow into my name. No need to ask, jerks.
Polly Dickey? Did you call her Polly or Dickey? Wow, I thought Tootie was appropriate yet goofy, but Polly Dickey! Simply awesome.
I would just like to say that Hilles Horner is my mother and it is actually really disrespectful that you think her maiden name should be a that of a stripper. She is now Hilles Whedbee and happens to be a very well known and wonderful nurse midwife and is actually doing something nice for people instead of making fun of other peoples names. You also might want to check with all of these people and see if they like you using their names as punch lines.
I apologize for the unauthorized use of the name Hilles Horner. I would be happy to remove the name Hilles Horner from the list. If anyone besides Hilles Horner would like her name removed, please email me.
My favorite aspect of the anonymous post: bad grammar. Peoples' names. Apostrophe. The possessive.
people is already plural, dr. grammar. people's is the correct usage.
They all sound like hill billy names if you say 'em with a twang.
Garrison Forest? Weird School. I was thrown off the campus one night by the headmistress when we were there to see some people with the kind of weird names you read above.
Then we went to St. Tim's and saw even weirder names.
The Baltimore area has the weirdest preppy names of any city in the US.
LOL...Paula you kill me! Glad I didn't see my name up there, sucker! -learic
On campus there is a bench dedicated to Elizabeth Hooker Slaughter, I always loved that
What an absolutely GREAT post and what interesting comments it provoked.
It is a hard thing to believe if you didn't witness it...I was there! And I still CAN'T believe it...
Did I really go there. The real world is SOOOO different!!
Its a good post and such type of reunions are really important for alumni of boarding schools . I appreciate the writer’s efforts.
