Shred's Ninth: We enter, drunk with fire

Had a good date last night

No you didn't.

I can't participate in the three-way decade poll. I'm one band short, a few albums too many (for a top 3), I can't possibly pick 3 songs, and also the desire not to name the same three bands (or an album or song by them) in all three categories.

I meant Sophia is a wonderful and beautiful name, in my books. The meaning of names (if they could extend beyond religious meanings, even better) is a good perspective, then again second and third names tend to don't weigh as much. Except the fact that I'm getting a book as a present when the saint is celebrated, I would question what difference does it make that I'm also an Andrew, when few hardly know, and no one adresses me that way.

I'm not implying you're implying anything.   

I said that out of annoyance of listening to the women in my family go on and on about how "cute" certain names are (never mind that these cute names mean things like "cheese maker" and "tree stump" ).

It still makes me realize I'm too picky that I can't properly designate something in such "best ofs", or I can't fully decide what clearly stands apart from the rest.

Ah, yes, such remarks aren't tasteful (although, at times when the kid is just a baby, and the picked name is an inevitable subject, you could let it slide). What name would be "cheese maker" and in what context? Furman means cheesemaker.  Not that anybody found that name cute (I actually knew an old man named Furman, believe it or not), but I was just making a point.

Well, from my perspective, I wouldn't choose Furman as a name in a billion years. So win on both sides.

Why Furman, after all? What's wrong with Forman, to begin with? Wait, what kind of a "maker" would he be...?

So Scott...Steve Walsh.  Thoughts?

Steve Walsh is missing about 7 or 8 more songs in order for that to be a full album, so really it is mostly just a teaser of what could be.  That said, I enjoyed both songs on first listen.

I believe that it is only in rare cases where babies are born and not given a name until adulthood, thus living their entire childhoods as "hey you".

That's Floyd fanboyism gone too far.
