Actually, Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, not April 21. I know this because my dad's born on April 21 too, is half German and used to live in what back then was Germany, but now belongs to Poland. Well, if you think it's bad to share a birthday with Hitler, I recently took a Stupid Internet Quiz (TM) called "Which Famous Leader Are You?", and I came out as Adoph Hitler. Other people who took the test were like Gandhi and Abe Lincoln and Einstein, and I'm Hitler?? When someone else posted that their result was Saddam Hussein, I felt much better.

Kathy aka Squirgee... My mother used to (and still does on occasion) call me "gogga" or "goggoitjie", which is grub or "little grub" in Afrikaans (caterpillar- type grub, not messy person, although both could equally apply). I'm sure that had *nothing* to do with me becoming an entomologist! Tish |

Weird Pet Names
Cheryl Perkins skrev: I let a friend's child choose Mandy's name, and I just thought Betsy looked like a Betsy (when I realized she wasn't a tom!) - solid, sensible, calm. The latest cat was named Moses by his rescuer, but I wanted to name him Sam, partly as a reminder of another black tom I knew years ago who sadly ended up at the bridge prematurely. He'd been named Satan, which I disliked, but 'Sam' or 'Sammy' maintains the 'S' sound. I have a soft spot for neglected tomcats whose roaming nature and tendency to spray tends to cause thoughtless humans to discard them. Anyway, poor old Satan is long gone, but I remember him sometimes when scritching the very Biblically-named Sam/Moses. I've mentioned Harry-the-Cat before - he's actually titled G - Sir Harry Smudge The Cat - although he usually goes by simply 'Harry'. I've noticed that it seems to be more commone these days to give pets human names. I've always done it, and although I've known one or two people who don't like the idea of an animal having a human name, I know more who don't mind; some of whom would actually be honoured if a cat were named after them! -- Cheryl I know an old man named Harry. He calls his cat Potter. Elisabet |
