One of our rules for pet naming, especially cats, is how we would feel
about standing and yelling that name out our front door at 11 PM, or
walking around the neighborhood calling it.

I always wondered what the neighbors used to think when I stood at the
back
door at 11 PM yelling "ROMEO!!, Romeo! Where are you??"


For best effect you should have called "Romeo, Romeo, where art thou,
Romeo?" ;-)


Actually it's "wherefore (Elizabethan English for "why") art thou Romeo" -
Juliet's not looking for him, just sad because fate should have put him in
the "enemy" camp.


I know, I altered it because I thought it sounded more suitably
Shakespearian to go with his name ;-)
Being British, I was "Shakespeared to death" at school. I can still
remember off by heart whole tracts of it. E.g. Now fair Hypolleta (sp?)
our nuptial hour draws on apace...ad nauseum.
