Man up, Wolf!

Did you see Wolf Blitzer crumble into dust during his interview with Dick? I don't see why; it's not like Dick would shoot him in the face or anything.

Have you noticed how people's names can either be ironic, exact or slightly-off from the actual person?

Slightly-off names are hard to remember causing the Brain Teflon Effect; they just slide off and won't stick. You know, like the guy named 'Chris' who really looks like a 'Bob'? Not a huge difference, but it'll still have you sweating each time you two are alone on the elevator together.

The ironic ones are like half-giant, angry girls named 'Precious' (I'm still smarting from a 6th grade smackdown!) and, well, 'Wolf Blitzer' - sounds like a reporter who can blast through an obstinant guest like a tank through a daisy patch, right? But, we see ( and can see over and over and over on-line) the his name should be 'Poodle PeePants'.

Then there are those names of sheer exactitude. 'Dick' Cheney...no explanation needed there. I heard it's short for 'RobbingTaxpayer'sBlindthroughHalliburton'sNoBidContracts'. My favourite is the name of the couple who challenged the miscegenation law against their getting married promisingly named "Loving".

I'm named after a contestant on "Jeopardy!". I should find out if she won.
