    I do love a funny name

    I was looking at a news site where they were discussing candidates for the FIFA presidency now dear old Uncle Sepp has been found with his digits in the petty cash box (allegedly) .

    The last one would have made a good band name.

    "Prince Ali Bin Al Hussein of Jordan, Asian Football Confederation (AFC) President Sheikh Salman Bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa, former FIFA deputy general secretary Jerome Champagne of France and South African businessman and politician Tokyo Sexwale are also standing in the vote."
    cheers,

    So that's what they're hunting in the Southern waters.
    I drove past a street named Glasscock today between Dandenong and home. I made this sound in my head, "Fnarr, fnarr!" Just like this guy.


    I am ever the juvenile.

    There used to be a doctor in Sydney whose surname was Pickit Heaps. Lovely bloke, but I would have changed my name if I was him.


    I once ate at "Bruce and Deb's Thai Restaurant'. Just didn't sound right, but the food was good.

    That's called nominative determinism. I first came across the term in New Scientist many years ago - there was an article about it.
