The Blue Whale is so named because:
1. He's big
2. He's blue
3. He's got a California environmental license plate, image of a whale's
tail.
4. He spends a lot of time at the beach

(Was: Naming ?)

OK, Pokey. You should know that you are named after a female body part in
Tagalog (main dialect in the Philippines). I've been meaning to tell you
that
all these months.

I remember watching Gumby as a kid and laughing with the other kids. Gumby
wasn't so funny until he called his little horsey what y'all call a cat
around these parts (pun intended). You had to be there to appreciate it.

As I mentioned to Miller in Sacto before, I'm partial to the name "Atilla
the
Van"
