"When she's on her back, she has the knowledge to get into college"

Ok, so I was going to tell a fun story about this weekend. But I wantec to change the names to protect the innocent, because that's me: defender of the innocent. So I was going to use the first letter of everyone's name. Then I realized that EVERYONE'S NAMES BEGIN WITH THE LETTER J! Jay, Jenn, Jason, Jeff X2, Jessica...not to mention other friends, John X2, Jessica, Julie, Jeremy X2, Jackie, etc. Why are there so many names that begin with J? Anyway, I scrapped the story because I was the only non-J and it just wouldn't make sense. But I did make out with 3 of the Js on Friday :)

If you look at words, J is a very uncommon letter, except in names. This makes sense because J was absent in the Latin Alphabet but was introduced later.

So now I'm going to call J friends by the same names as dictators or autocrats. So I'm taking bids on the following names: Pol-pot, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, Mao, Franco, Hannibal, Genghis. If you have other ideas I may consider it. But remember you are being punished for your parents' lack of ingenuity :)

Cheers!


[Addendum: The title of this post has nothing to do with this weekend. It's from a Belle and Sebastian song and it makes me giggle. My friends have the knowledge to get into college on their backs or not.]

What about Marx or Lenin? If these are acceptable, I put in a bid for Lenin. No wait, maybe Mao. No wait! Pudding!

Marx was not a dictator or an autocrat. I guess you could argue Lenin was, but I like him so I'm going to leave him out.

Pudding is always unacceptable. If you keep it up you'll be Tammy Faye Baker.

This is Mike, but i didn't feel like creating a profile and all that Jazz. Hey, I'm an "M" so, thusly disproving this "J" business, but we, being the 2 other "C"s and a "D" were somehow not involved in shenanigans over the weekend. Unless you count C3 and C1 coming to my house to play PS2 and later "A" showed up and then we played until the wee hours of the morning. Now I don't ever know why I started to comment. Hmm. Wacky.

M, I appreciate greatly my friends that are non-J. Like B, D, C, M, A, et al. It just seems that there are way to many Js and the Js get into the shenanigans.

My senior year from high school out of my friends there were 5 Js, 1 L and 1 R (me). It just seems that I'm surrounded by Js.

I'm glad to hear there were no shenanigans but PS2 action. That's hot. Were you playing naked??? Just kidding. Ha!

I wanna be pudding, damnit. But fine, since it has to be a dictator and/or autocrat, I pick Putin. I know what you're all thinking....give it 10 years.

sincerely,
